Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
There are four different versions of the all-wheel drive Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV for 2024: ES, SE, SEL, and SEL Platinum Edition. It's powered by a 131-horsepower, 2.4L 4-cylinder engine with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). The all-electric range is 38 miles with a total range of 420 miles.
The layout underneath the Outlander PHEV is like that of most crossovers in this class, with MacPherson struts in front and a multi-link rear suspension. An electric power steering system helps provide good weighting and responsiveness while reducing fuel consumption.
The Outlander may not present as a hard-core off-roader, but it has enough toughness and ground clearance to get through loose, rocky trails and the occasional forest road. In all models, the second row can fit up to three, and it's 40/20/40 split, with the seatbacks folding forward for more cargo capability or reclining.
Standard equipment included include 18-inch wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, rear-seat heat ducts, remote keyless entry, cruise control, an 8-inch touch-screen display, steering-wheel audio controls and a 6-speaker sound system.
The SE adds heated front seats, heated side mirrors, a power liftgate, LED fog lights, 20-inch wheels, an HD Satellite radio, 9-inch touchscreen, adaptive cruise control, and wireless device charging.
The SEL adds roof rails, power folding mirrors, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, separate rear climate controls, and adaptive cruise control.
The SEL Platinum Edition sits at the top of the lineup featuring a power sunroof, heated rear seats, leather seats, driver seat memory, a premium 9-speaker sound system, and a head-up display.
High-tech safety come standard on all trims which include lane departure warning, active blind spot warning, forward and collision mitigation, and a driver attention alert while the SE, SEL and SEL Platinum Edition add front pedestrian detection, a traffic sign information system and rear pedestrian detection.
