The Power of Both Worlds: All-New Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV SUV

Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) is bringing electrification to its lineup as it officially introduces the all-new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, its first plug-in hybrid electric (PHEV) in the Philippine market. 

The compact SUV, recognized as Japan’s best-selling PHEV in the SUV segment, the All-New Outlander PHEV serves as MMPC’s flagship model and represents the culmination of Mitsubishi Motors’ expertise in SUV engineering, combining its renowned Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system and advanced PHEV technology to deliver “The Power of Both Worlds.”

The Power of Both Worlds

The all-new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is powered by the combination of a 2.4-liter gasoline engine that’s paired with front and rear electric motors, producing a total of 302 horsepower and 450Nm of torque. A 22.7kWh battery allows for an estimated all-electric driving range of up to 100km on a single full charge, or up to 1000km of combined range, allowing for exceptional performance while maximizing efficiency.

Designed to deliver seamless and flexible mobility, the all-new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV eliminates range anxiety by seamlessly engaging the gasoline engine whenever additional power or extended driving range is needed. It gives drivers full control through multiple EV drive modes–Normal, Save, Charge, and EV Priority–giving drivers the confidence to travel longer distances with peace of mind. 

Charging is convenient with support for Type 2 AC charging, making it compatible with the country’s EV charging stations. Even when charging facilities are unavailable, the all-new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV will be able to operate efficiently as a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), ensuring uninterrupted mobility while allowing drivers to embrace electrification at their own pace.

A World of True 4WD Capability

The all-new Outlander PHEV builds on Mitsubishi Motors’ legendary capability, equipped with the brand’s renowned Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC)–a fully integrated system that brings together the vehicle’s Twin-Motor 4WD, Active Yaw Control (AYC), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Active Stability Control (ASC), Traction Control System (TCS) to optimize traction, stability, and handling for extra confidence on a wide range of road and driving conditions.

Seven selectable drive modes complement the S-AWC–Normal, Eco, and Power modes allow drivers to tailor the vehicle’s performance to suit everyday driving style, maximizing efficiency and responsiveness. Meanwhile, Tarmac, Gravel, Snow, and Mud modes optimize power delivery and traction control based on varying road surfaces, helping the vehicle maintain composure and capability to tackle rough terrain.

By seamlessly integrating advanced electrification with intelligent vehicle dynamics, the all-new Outlander PHEV preserves Mitsubishi Motors’ driving signature, while enhancing safety, capability, and driving confidence. This flawless synergy between a world of unbound electrification and a world of true 4WD capability is what truly defines “The Power of Both Worlds.”

Advanced safety is likewise reinforced in the all-new Outlander PHEV with the Mitsubishi Motors Safety Sensing (MMSS) suite, providing greater peace of mind for both driver and passengers. This includes Forward Collision Mitigation, Blind Spot Warning, Lane Change Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, Automatic High Beam, and Driver Attention Alert.

Crafted to Make a Statement

The all-new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is undoubtedly Mitsubishi, designed to embody its heritage while showcasing a modern and sophisticated presence that reflects Mitsubishi Motors’ evolving design language. Wide proportions, a muscular stance, and sculpted body surfaces conveys confidence from every angle, while the signature Dynamic Shield front fascia reinforces the vehicle’s identity. The bold exterior is further accentuated by sleek full-LED lighting and striking 20-inch machine-finished and black two-tone alloy wheels, blending an athletic yet elegant appearance.

More than just aesthetics, thoughtful engineering has been placed in every exterior detail to enhance both functionality and road presence, such as the use of steel is used on prominent body components, improving insulation of noise and vibration. This refinement not only enhances craftsmanship and styling quality but also helps reduce unwanted wind and road noise, contributing to a quieter and more premium driving experience. 

Combined with its refined proportions and bold SUV stance, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV delivers a premium visual presence that stands out whether navigating urban streets or embarking on long-distance journeys. 

Premium Comfort & Technology

A sophisticated cabin atmosphere reflects the vehicle’s flagship status through touches such as premium light gray leather seats and meticulously finished soft-touch materials.

Modern technology and everyday convenience is seamlessly integrated into the cabin through a 12.3-inch Smartphone-Link Display Audio (SDA) with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, paired with an immersive eight-speaker Dynamic Sound Yamaha Premium audio system. The all-new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is also equipped with Smart Rear View Mirror for an unobstructed view from behind the vehicle, as well as Heads-up Display (HUD) to show relevant information directly onto the windshield in the driver’s front field of view.
