2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
Overview
Mitsubishi has been surprising the market for the last few years, with the Outlander and Outlander PHEV being the catalysts. Drivers and automotive critics alike have dubbed the Outlander PHEV one of the best full-size SUVs in the segment. It has even won Family Green Car of the Year from Green Car Journal for the last two years in a row. The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV promises to be one of the best-selling plug-in hybrid SUVs again for 2024, with its exceptional style, efficiency, and easy-to-digest price.
Who’s It For?
The 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is the ideal family SUV that offers comfort for all passengers, as well as some luxe touches. Three-row SUVs often fall behind when it comes to great fuel economy, but the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV pushes back against that stereotype with a healthy range and impressive fuel economy. Drivers will enjoy the opportunity to get those necessary errands handled around town solely on electric power, with the opportunity to use the gas engine for longer trips. Drivers who want to reduce their fuel consumption will love the Outlander PHEV.

Real World Performance
Many people think that hybrid models sacrifice performance to achieve great fuel economy, and in many cases that’s true. The Outlander PHEV is the exception, not the rule. With up to 248 combined horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque, the Outlander PHEV delivers snappy acceleration and a 6.6-second 0 to 60 mph time. The EPA-estimated all-electric range of 38 miles will give drivers the ability to run errands around town or go through their daily commute without any fuel at all. Even when fuel is needed, the Outlander PHEV gets an incredible 64 MPGe and a range of up to 420 miles before you need to fuel up again.
MacPherson front and multi-link rear suspension provide a smooth but precise ride, and ventilated disc brakes provide excellent stopping power. Mitsubishi’s Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system offers seven drive modes to fine-tune the response and performance of the Outlander PHEV. Since the engine powers the Outlander PHEV’s front wheels and the twin motors power the rear, all-wheel drive is standard. When combined with respectable ground clearance and up to 1,500 pounds of towing capacity, the Outlander PHEV is surprisingly capable.
