At 1:50 the text says it has a CVT. It DOES NOT have a CVT. It has a SINGLE SPEED transmission/gear connection between the petrol engine and the front axle. This gear only engages above a certain speed, which I think is about 70 km/hr, or thereabouts. It DOES NOT HAVE A CVT.

Great review. It is just petty that Mitsubishi still has not explained SAVE mode during long journeys as the MPG will change significantly less when the battery is not drained on long trips.

I get nearly 100km ev range on my new 2023 model. But I'm in NZ and wondering if maybe mitsi give different battery capacity in different regions?

Excellent Video & explanation Justin. Considering living in Southern Ontario & relying both on PHEV & HEV modes, which one do you recommend to save more fuel & for long term usage - Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV or Kia Sportage PHEV ?

I have decided to purchase this SUV as a result of your review. I live in the Prairies and my BMW i3 can't take my far enough as the battery range is cut in half during the winter months (like 8 months of the year).

I have a 2018 outlander phev i was wondering if mitsubshi solved the problem plaguing those 2018 to 2022 models where the 12v battery dies in sub -20 weather requiring recharcharging the battery sometimes multiple times in the winter. Note mitsubshi denies there is an issue.

Owner of a MY 2021 with 2.4l. engine and 13.kwh battery pack. I have never got 10l/100km or more. I usually stay around 6,8l/100km. A 300km trip mostly 80km/h roads, I even get around 5,2l/100km. If you drive 130-140km/h, then yes, you will not get back much from parallel hybrid mode. All energy from fuel goes into the engine to drive the car and minimum to recharge the battery. All abundance of energy can be stored by CHARGE and not let it out until driving at lower speed. I think in its way is brilliant.. Sure it's heavier and then need more fuel but it is quite efficient for its size anyhow.

How does colder weather affect the battery range?

Cruise Control should NEVER be used in snow, or rain, on wet, slick, or loose surfaces ever. Just a safety fyi.

which mode did you used on snow driving speeding over 100kph.

Getting this GTP in the next few weeks. 10l/100km in hybrid mode sounds disappointing. Will be testing in the city (save mode) and on the HWY as well. Hope to get a better MPG in hybrid-only mode.

Thank you! Doubt you'll find any pre owned in this generation, it just went on sale. Not likely to be any used ones out there yet... You could look at an earlier Outlander PHEV previous generation as a second hand alternative. If you're buying brand new little to no maintenance is needed for a very long time, the hybrid can extend the life of brake parts and oil changes too. Longer term maintenance cost maybe slightly higher but would imagine far less than what you're going to save on fuel (and gain on resale value vs a non hybrid). The resale value of non-hybrid vehicles will decline as gas prices remain unpredictable. Hope that helps!

Also, you can't just add the maximum power and torque figures from the two motors and the petrol engine together to get the peak power and torque figures for the entire vehicle. This is because the peaks occur at different speeds ( or rpm's ) for the motors and the petrol engine. Electric motors have peak torque, but zero power, at zero rpm. Whereas a petrol engine has zero power and torque at zero rpm, but maximum torque and power at somewhere around 4,000 to 6,000 rpm, and not necessarily at the same rpm. So, in order to determine the real maximum torque and power for the vehicle, you need to look at the torque and power CURVES for both of the motors AND the petrol engine, and add all three together - taking into account the gear ratio used in the single speed transmission on the front axle.

the way he said the name of the tires, i thought he was making fun of them - Kumho Wintercrap... good thing i googled to find out it's Wintercraft... otherwise, nice review, nice car.

@JustinPritchard

3 ай бұрын

Good points-- if it's 20 below, you'll be running the gas engine (probably in generator mode) for heat, so the switch to hybrid operation when the EV range runs out won't involve firing up a cold engine. If it did somehow (say you turned the heat off), the engineers have numerous means of protecting modern engines from thermal shock as you mention. A gas engine, hybrid or not, has to start and run and work at 20 below. And while many drivers like you and I like to run our engines to warm them up a little on a cold morning before using them hard, you really don't need to. Protections are built in. I regularly cold start (30 below in some cases) test cars and drive them immediately, even applying full throttle acceleration within ~45 seconds of engine start. Vehicles have to be able to stand up to this, most respond by aggressively limiting throttle and shifting gears very slowly until fluids are warmed. Outlander would work in much the same way in that situation. But remember at 20 below, it's likely going to run in generator mode to help sustain the battery while generating cabin heat. In generator mode, if memory serves, the engine simply runs at one continuous RPM, regardless of throttle input. Hope that helps!

If only it would save money I'd get one. Except, it doesn't. Did the math (and not just wishful thinking for confirmation bias to support a shiny new toy), and it would take upwards to like 10 years to break even - and that's driving *ALL* in EV mode. Past the EV mode, once the gas motor kicks in, this car is absolutely ATROCIOUS on gas! Worst than ANY other similar sized gas SUV BY FAR. People have no idea. The *ONLY* people that "disagree" are the ones that want to feel good about the choice they made or want to make.

Apparently these cars brick themselves at -20c and colder. Makes it pretty useless in a lot of Canada.

But you didn't answer the most important question.. in an open lot, with traction control disabled, will it rip evo like donuts? 😂

I'm just disappointed with the miles of distance with the battery. It's almost like you drive 340 miles on gas then use the 40 miles on battery just to find a gas station. It almost defeats the purpose of having a phev. Also the fact the same engine size for all trims, a 2.5 liter where my 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander GT had a 3.0 and could mange a lot. Mitsubishi could have done better. If this battery could have went 100 miles then it would be worth buying

I had an SEL, gave it back, the engine whine from the CVT is extremely annoying and makes the car sound old, high winds pitch this vehicle all over the place to where I find myself fighting with the steering wheel, interior leather unsticks in the center console, rain sensing sensors are not that great, not to mention hood fluttering issue….
