Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV: Better Than You Think

Wow, did not expect this from Mitsubishi. Love it 😍

I just purchased a 2024 Outlander PHEV SEL and absolutely love it. The only thing I don't love is the lack of a spare tire. Aside from the Toyota name, this is a much better option than the RAV4 prime. We've had it for almost a month now, and the gas tank is still on full. It even has massaging front driver and passenger seats. The interior is absolutely gorgeous. As far as the lack of the spare tire, I purchased a 2015 Nissan Murano spare, which fits perfectly, as well as a trailer hitch spare tire carrier and 3 ton jack for long trips and off road adventures. I was not going to finance this car, but the dealer said that Mitsubishi was offering 0% financing, so I took that instead.

Mitsu is a very underrated & under appreciated company. I have a ‘23 mirage hatch. Can’t beat their warranty. I love the car. That Outlander is nice too. Cool review 😊

I've smashed that like button. Great review

I am charging it everyday and I have drove approx. 2000 km( Montreal, Canada). My round trip from work is around 74 km. I am doing 0.4 l/100. I did not test it on long route yet.

Infotainment needs a update to Google Automotive like the new Rogue. Hopefully in 2025. Would it be to know more about the off road capabilities of the Outlander PHEV, great review!

Forgot how bad you dislike the non existent 3rd row! At the end! Great review! Love the decor!

Not sure I'm sold on the 1 speed transmission, but I do love the look of it!

I've had one for 3 months. Review is spot on, but Apple Car play is wireless. Only Android auto is wired

How do you achieve that 5.1 mpg? We have the oulander phev but we dont seem to achieve that. We always put the battery on Save mode and Eco mode.

Dude at my dealership went over the gas engine with me. It prefers to work as a generator, but is reluctant to work as an actual engine. That said, my passing power is more than adequate in tarmac or power modes.

Didn't know it was an award winning interior

Currently, I am driving the 22 Outlander GT (Gas), do you think it’s wise for me to trade it in for the PHEV version even though I don’t have my own garage at home and I parked in the street?

The efficiency, or fuel consumption, of the Outlander PHEV depends entirely on how far you drive on a daily basis, and how often you recharge the battery. In Australia the official fuel consumption is 1.5 litres per 100 km combined cycle. But if you never charge the battery, it will be much worse.

Just bought one in canada and I am getting between 4.6L/100km to 5.7L/100km. I drive it in taxi everyday and drive around 350km a day. I get to fill it every 3rd day. I charge everyday day at home and getting around 85km EV only mode. 3rd row seat is for kids only. But with little seats adjustment you can fit 2 adults but not for long drive, for upto half hr 40 minutes they be good in 3rd row. Comfort level and interior is beyond my expectations. I get compliments all day long from riders. I guess if you drive it slow and at control speed limits you can get way better per 100 KM milage. You are getting way more of a car with Japanese quality and reliability. Rav4 has no comparison to this, coz I see lots of rav4 in cabs as well and when rav4 owners drive my outlander they regret of buying rav4. Also I got 4 years of oil,break,tire,rim coverage for free. 5 years north america roadside assistance for free. 10 years of warranty, along with lots of accessories for free.

I do not work for Mitsubishi. I have ordered an Outlander PHEV. I am expecting delivery in September 2024.

Nice looking vehicle!

Some pretty concerning reports of the vehicle not starting in cold winter weather. Seems only suited milder climates.

It DOES have wireless Apple Car Play, but wired Android Auto.

As far as I know it does have wireless Apple Carplay but not Android.
