While #Mitsubishi still has some work to do on its reputation in America, a strong lineup of new products helps people forget about problems in the past. When the current generation #MitsubishiOutlander came out in 2022, the company borrowed heavily from the newest version of the Nissan Rogue. A year ago, the #OutlanderPHEV made its return and it got a power upgrade courtesy of a new battery pack with even more power and all-electric range. Its a good family SUV with a stylish design, well made interior, and plenty of space on the inside.

Won top 10 interiors of 2021. Named the safest SUV on the market for the year 2023 by U.S News. RWD Biased S-AWC with AYC. Made in Japan. This is my pick over the competition all day everyday.
Isn't mostly NIssan components? Which isnt known for realiability
@@jarreds4553 No, it's not, they share parts yes, but mostly Nissan's components? No.
I own the 2023 Outlander PHEV and can attest that the Nissan bits are electronics only. It has a Mitsubishi engine and Mitsubishi single speed reduction transmission. Highly recommend giving it a test drive if you are even remotely interested in buying one or comparing it to the competition.
We had one as a rental and loved it. Pushing it for the family car
Buy Toyota or a new Honda CR-V
A lot better than the Korean counterparts. Can't go wrong with Japanese technology (and reliabilty)
Apparantly, these Outlander PHEVs also make grear car camping setups because the heat/aircl conditioning grt power from the larger battery!🎉
I own 2024 Outlander GT-P PHEV. It's a beautiful vehicle. ❤
bought one two days ago in QC Canada, the LE trim, white colour. Enjoying watching this video and knowing that what I bought is good. So far everything is good, really enjoy it.
That Red Diamond is gorgeous!!
@Mitsubishi, with all the capital you gain from this flagship suv, please revive eclipse and lancer. I know you can. I believe you can.

My Wife has the 2023 and loves it.
As a 2023 Outlander PHEV owner with the SEL package, I can say I am pleasantly surprised with the luxury touches this has compared to the current Rav4 (which I've driven) and the current CRV (which I traded in to get the Outlander.) We didn't buy this vehicle for a 3rd row, so the lack of room back there is a non-issue for us since we don't use it. Honestly, for a non-luxury brand, you would be hard pressed to find a better vehicle for the price. Sure, the Rav4 Prime has better performance and range, but there are still markups on those and it's simply not as nice as the Outlander on the inside. We drive on average less than 40 miles per day, so we use little to no gas unless we are doing longer road trips. The slow charging speed really isn't an issue for us either. Most days we are getting a full charge overnight using level 1 charging. Overall, I think the Outlander PHEV makes a lot of sense as long as you are able to charge it every night at home. Additionally, I've had zero issues with the vehicle in my first year of ownership. No squeaks or rattles in the interior and no unexpected trips to the dealership. Very happy with my 2023 Outlander PHEV 😊
So may i ask how often do you refill your petrol?
@evelineprisanti5352 If you don't take road trips and keep your commuting to 40 miles or less then you can easily go months without filling up with gas. My personal usage includes road trips from time to time so we've probably filled up 6 or 7 times over the past year.
We've filled up the gas tank once in the last 3 months and that was because of a long 500km once-a-year road trip we do.
He reviewed the same thing almost a year ago with a different color combination
So awesome design! ❤
We have 18k miles on our 2023 Outlander PHEV, same spec and color as your tester. Love the car. Great ride and tech. Drive about 70% as an EV. On long trips with battery depleted gets about 26mpg, which isn't great, but about same as our 2018 Rogue SL AWD we had before. We charge every night with our level 2 charger. Went about a month buying no gas. Have been seeing more gas Outlanders but haven't seen any PHEV's. We bought used and paid $38k. Don't think would have paid $51k as new price, but feel was a great value for what we paid. We keep the third seat folded down and would probably only use for our smaller grandkids. Excellent review!
Nice. Question: what level 2 charger are you using? How fast is it charging and how do you like it?
@@JonOvalleWe bought the Muetex on Amazon for $160. It came with 220 outlet. I installed circuit, breaker and wiring myself for about $150. Charge time depends on battery remaking but to fully charge when empty takes about 6 hours. Charger can also be plugged in to regular outlet (110) but that is very slow
Exact same as us. Makes a lot of sense for certain buyers
I wish they had a two row version of this~ all that cargo space taken up by an unusable 3rd row. They DO make a two row, but it's not sent to America.
Can't they just fold the seats down?
And I will buy a fully loaded 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV SEL Premium anyway.
@@Xo-xz6vithat's also decreases cargo capacity man.
If I had this I'd physically remove the 3rd row. I don't see any situation where it'd actually be useful.
I see it as better to have the 3rd row and not need it than to need it and not have it.
Why do they offer massaging seats but not cooled seats? That makes no damn sense 😆
I live in a colder climate, I'd rather have the massage function.
Yes the only thing missing is cool seats!!
I wonder if the top Platinum trim has cooled seats.
@@Stressless2023no cooled seats available even on the platinum sadly.
Because I prefer massaging seats over coolef seats and I will buy a fully loaded 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.
I regularly manage to get over 700km plus in range on road trips, which use the ICE a lot. Mitsubishi made a compromise with the drive-train by giving a more powerful rear motor and a full-EV driving experience over hybrid fuel efficiency. The pay-off is the driving experience AND better off-road capability than competitors. The CEO of Mits Australia took one across the Simpson desert with no mods other than under-body protection. Mitsubishi use the old 2.4 engine as it's a good match and has tried and true reliability being so understressed, the test-mule in the Japan proving ground has over 420,000km and is still going strong despite being flogged over gravel and through mud mercilessly. Other advantages are 240v/110v AC power sockets that have real-world usability for appliances and tools and the S-AWC is not just a gimmick, you can really feel it driving the car around fast sweeping corners (we have those here in Australia 😉)
Does the start up chime sound like a Mario Kart Game or is it just me?
Is this coming to uk😊
I test drove one at the auto show. I was genuinely surprised how far their interior game has come.
Love the front end design on these! The back not so much, but overall a great looking vehicle.
Picked up my 2024 Outlander PHEV GT 20kWh I now have 640 kms (started with 11kms) I have been averaging 85 to 94 kms on pure EV, we have been averaging temps of 10'C in the day and 3'C during tge night. Range is increasing as the ambient temp is starting to average 12'C
I remember I had one of these and took it through car wash. That shifter dam near made me pass out ended up going through wash in drive cause no time to figure it out
is there any major issues in this PHEV model?
I like it style
Mitzu cmon remove the chademo plug and put a faster level 2 charger, it will be much more practical and will reduce bom cost, why this is not done yet puzzles me
They've packed a lot of features into a compact SUV, wow. Even though it's based on the Nissan Rogue, I'd consider this Mitsubishi.
Without watching just asking the question: is cool seats available on top trim yet? If yes then it's perfect.
And I will buy a fully loaded 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV SEL Premium anyway.
Unfortunately, there is no cooling seat, just only heated seats in the top model in Canada.
Thar must be the most video taped Red Barn on you tube :)
I averaged 35 MPG on hybrid mode drive, it all depends on how we drive ! similar to how Rav4Prime people drive to get more mileage.
I bought this car too. Can you please let me know which is hybrid mode eco or normal?
What's the secret sauce?
Mitsubishi is going to benefit greatly from this partnership. They were in desperate need of a hit in the United States. All of their other cars have allow people to become best friends with mechanics and Mitsubishi service center personnel.
If they’d ditch the useless 3rd row and give me the extra cargo space, I’d probably own one. There’s also the issue of it not starting at all in extreme cold which would be a concern for my area. But I like the idea of how it drives like an ev.

its nice just don't like the square front lights
Mitsubishi ❤️
I have a 2020 Outlander and it's perfect for what I wanted it for: Pack up 2-3 people and their luggage, drive to a convention, empty luggage into the hotel room, and then be able to take 6 friends to dinner, which that 3rd row is totally fine for. And be able to navigate tight parking lots. The only thing I wish my Outlander had was a plug. However.... With no sort of electrification, my Outlander gets 27 mpg combined. Which is just a smidge /better/ than this PHEV in hybrid mode. And when things like the Kia Sorento PHEV exist.... I can't justify the Outlander PHEV. Improve that efficiency? This is my next car 100%.
They need to bring back the Montero ..
100%
I literally passed this vehicle for missing vent seats…what a pity
I think it’s looks better than the boring Toyota and Honda SUV’s

Wow...that is one fantastic looking SUV.
Why do all LED lighting in the front and then skimp out with the rear turn signals? 😖
Easily fixable with a pack of LED bulbs from the local auto parts store.
That's the trend today.
@15:35 You say "You can see this controls the one speed reduction gear transmission." Again, that's not true. That device only controls how the two motors, one on the front axle and one on the rear axle, operate. It switches between going forward, or going reverse, and how the regenerative braking works. It has absolutely nothing to do with the single speed reduction gear transmission.
❤
If you live in a cold climate, the car only uses a heat pump - be prepared for very poor heat in the winter.
I live in a cold climate (Minnesota) and have not found that to be the case with my 24 Outlander PHEV. You can set it to stay in EV mode in the winter and a warning will display letting you know to exit EV mode if you need additional heat. The engine has its own cooling system with a heater core like a normal ICE vehicle and so when the engine runs/is allowed to run, heat from the engine will be produced and distributed when called by the climate control system. I believe many other PHEVs with a heat pump also use the engine’s cooling system to produce cabin heat.
Has anyone purchased this vehicle ? What is it like truthfully ? I want to see someone with more than 50k miles on this vehicle and talk about the durability and reliability
That loopy chrome thing on front is not a good look to me. Its just too much. Everything else is fine

What is so unique about that key? It’s nearly identical to the key Nissan has been using for many many years

Y is every car 50k wtf is going on in the world
I got one around 16k off of the msrp. Lease for 3 years with residual of 24k.
the phev version is 13k more expensive then the petrol version, 13k you can fuel up for 10 yearts, not worth it. and phev won't last longer than 5 years, after which, the battery gets worse. and owners start re-selling them. carry a li-on battery all the time, is the ticking bomb in the unlikely event.
@2:32 You say "It all goes out through a one speed reduction gear transmission." That is INCORRECT, and shows a lack of understanding of how this hybrid system works. The ONLY time the one speed reduction gear transmission is engage, or is operating, is at speeds above 70 km/hr or 45 mph when the engine connects directly to ONLY the front axle, to provide additional torque and power to ONLY the front wheels, for high speed driving and/or acceleration. For the vast majority of the operating time of this vehicle the power and torque "goes out" from the electricity stored in the battery, directly to the two motors, and onto the road, via the axles and wheels. The one speed gear reduction transmission spends the vast majority of it's time being idle, or not used at all. Please don't say stuff that is untrue in your videos.
the predecessor had terrible suspension, i am curious how the new one drives.
Surprised they're still using that 2.4L , it was in the old 2006 eclipse
Mitsubishi made the Zero Kamikaze Warplanes during WWII and as a WWII Navy Vet in the South Pacific I won't buy their car. If you love America, you won't either. Love America or leave it, damn it.

I get that they’re trying to jazz up the interior, but it seems to be a strange mix of materials. For example, the door has a stitched upper section (which doesn’t look like the highest quality leather), then a large hard plastic piece and plastic door handle, silver painted switches, faux carbon fiber which looks horrible, and diamond stitching. Just seems like an odd mishmash.

I wanted to like this car, but it doesn't have the tech or quality for the price point. The charging tech was good 10 years ago, but it is well behind the times now and the EMPG of 66 has to be the worse on the market. Top off the bad electric technology with very poor hybrid milage this car is not a winner. Many ICE vehicles get better milage.

@RichardJoashTan I didn't ask "who", I asked "why". And your reason is shite.
Because the Outlander is bigger, bolder, sharper, more sporty.. more luxurious, a real head turner. Neither is every other SUV on the road an Outlander...unlike the RAV4.
Better interior, better offroad capability, much more space, 3rd row for families with 3+ kids, cheaper msrp and desler discounts. I just signed a lease for 2023 with 1600 drive off and 460 california tax included. Same terms on the rav4 was 720 per month with 5500 drive off. It was a no brainer.
