2017 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Electrifies the SUV Segment
After being available in Europe and reaching status as the best selling hybrid plug-in electric vehicle in Europe, Mitsubishi has high hopes that the 2017 Outlander PHEV will build momentum for the automaker’s steady but small success in the United States.
Mitsubishi’s race-tested all-wheel control system, backed by two electric motors, distribute full-time electric power between the front and rear wheels. In addition, a 2.0-liter gas engine supports the plug-in hybrid system, ensuring the battery pack is perpetually charged.
The automaker announced that this system mitigates range anxiety commonly associated with purely electric vehicles. Actual mileage has yet to be announced. The electric-only range is expected to be about half of that of the Chevrolet Volt, putting it around 25 miles.

For buyers attracted to the Outlander for its passenger count, it is important to note that the third-row is absent from the PHEV version. Like it’s 2016 sibling, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard.
The 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is expected to be in dealerships in fall 2016. Pricing is still yet to be announced.
