2020 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is reviewed as a competent and practical all-purpose SUV, particularly excelling in its all-wheel-drive capabilities, especially in adverse weather conditions. The reviewer highlights its strong warranty as a significant peace-of-mind factor. While acknowledging its global sales success and the convenience of its automated hybrid system, the review points out limitations such as the lack of rear heated seats and the subdued acceleration in electric-only mode, which is not as potent as in full EVs. The electric range is noted as accurate but modest, estimated at 23-24 km in cold weather and potentially doubling to 40-50 km in warmer temperatures. The reviewer expresses a desire for a fully electric version or a larger battery for greater range, ultimately recommending the vehicle for its functionality and value, especially with available incentives, though it might not suit a personal preference for larger battery EVs.
