2024: a record year for Mitsubishi in Canada
The story of Mitsubishi's Canadian division is an incredible one. Established in the early 2000s, it has gone through difficult times, but has always bounced back stronger than ever. Today, it is a...
Unveiled a few years ago, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV quickly became one of Mitsubishi’s most popular vehicles. It also took the province of Québec by storm and has been a true success story for the Japanese manufacturer. The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV builds on the success of the previous model years by continuing to offer consumers a versatile and very efficient sport utility vehicle.
The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV remains the only affordable plug-in hybrid sport utility vehicle on the market. You will not find another option that provides as much all-electric driving range in this segment or price range. To find a sport utility vehicle that offers similar performance to the Outlander PHEV, you have to pay almost double the price.
What you get is a compact sport utility vehicle that features a hybrid powertrain that combines 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine along with an electric motor that gets its energy from a 13.1-kWh battery. Combined, all of these elements give the Outlander PHEV the ability to drive roughly 35 km using electric power alone. In other words, most owners are able to do the vast majority of their daily trips without ever needing to fuel up. They simply do what they need to do and then charge the vehicle overnight. That only takes 3.5 hours if you have a 240-volt charging system.
That said, what makes the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV so popular and so interesting, is that the gas engine will allow you to go further than the electric range allows you to if needed. In other words, when you drive an Outlander PHEV, you enjoy the best of both worlds. You have the freedom of a traditional compact sport utility vehicle, but you have the efficiency of an electric powertrain. You also enjoy 860 L of total cargo space and that’s even with all seats in place. Most hybrid vehicles have less cargo capacity because of the batteries, but the Outlander PHEV doesn’t have that problem. Visit us today to learn more about the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.
