Consumer Reports | 2024 Outlander PHEV

October 2nd, 2024 by

The new 2024 Outlander PHEV is an exciting new model, as it takes the tried-and-true design of the original Outlander and adds electric motors that pair with the strong 2.4L MIVEC engine. This gives you an Electric Range of 38 miles, so you may not even have to touch your gasoline when you’re out running errands. If you’re ready to try out the new Outlander PHEV, then you can visit us at White Bear Mitsubishi for a test drive.

The 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid’s Road Test

If you’re considering the new Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid, then you may want to see how it performed on its road test.

  • A Plug-in Hybrid Model: This model is powered by a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine and front and rear electric motors. Since this is a PHEV model, you can expect efficient performance when you’re behind the wheel, and you’ll have an estimated All-Electric Driving Range of 38 miles.
  • Impressive Performance: The critics at Consumer Reports noted that the Outlander PHEV offers “much quicker acceleration, despite the 885 pounds of added weight.” The added motors make a massive difference, as you’ll be able to blast off. They also noted that they “appreciate the slightly smoother ride that the PHEV model brings, thanks to the extra weight of its large battery.”

How Does It Perform on the Road?

If you live close to Minneapolis, White Bear Lake, or Brooklyn Park, then you can try out the new Outlander PHEV today. You’re always welcome to visit us at White Bear Mitsubishi for a test drive.

  • A Quiet Ride: Consumer Reports noted that the Outlander PHEV is “significantly quieter” thanks to its motors. If you’re driving with the EV mode engaged, then you won’t hear your engine at all.
  • An All-Electric Range of 38 Miles: An All-Electric Range is great, as it means that you can run all of your errands on your battery’s power alone. If you live in the city, then this is likely enough range for the whole day.
  • Great Craftsmanship: The Outlander PHEV has a comfortable design, as it has “well-shaped front seats” that you can sink into. This model is also able to seat up to seven, so it’s a good choice for larger families.

Safety, Tech, and Other Great Systems

The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is known for its efficient powertrain, but it also offers a lot of tech.

  • A Modernized Cabin: Features like Android Auto and Apple CarPlay will help you quickly connect to the available 9-inch Center Display. This screen gives you access to your apps, but you can also use it to pull up directions, control the temperature, and more. If you feel like your cabin is still missing something, then you may want to add the available Bose Premium Sound System.
  • Your Advanced Safety Systems: This model comes equipped with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Warning, and more. While these features come standard, you’ll also find available systems like Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Centering Assist, and Adaptive Cruise Control.
