Here’s what I use to keep my test cars clean while recording (with affiliate links):

Meguiar's Quick Detailer: amzn.to/3BbJAgm
Meguiar's Microfiber towels: amzn.to/3XXhEqh
New look, more power, both welcome. Moreover, my test car was the 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV SEL Premium, which provided a lot of technology and comforts on top of that. And, if you need to, the Outlander will squeeze up to seven people inside. Impressive for something the size of a Toyota Venza.
In this video, I take you through the car, show you what features are offered and how they work. And then I take you on a drive to get a sense of how well it handles, the quality of the ride, and the overall experience.

In some ways, this is a good step-up for some PHEV owners who appreciate the benefits of such a complex system. As a Honda Clarity PHEV owner, I would consider the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV as a great option. The gains? A modest/reasonable price bump ($37k to $43k at their base model levels), larger cargo capacity, a larger gas tank (7.5 vs 14.5 gallons), a larger interior, AWD, and a teeny tiny 3rd row. The losses? Smaller EV-only range, Fuel economy when both run as a pure hybrid, more weight, fewer service sites (at least near where I live). I honestly would consider this after the Clarity.
you explained everything very very clearly, I love it!

Really really wish the 3rd row and the giant sun roof were optional on the higher trims. 95 percent of the time I'm driving either myself or perhaps one other person. Don't need to stare at the sky while driving and mostly they're just loud and useless. Speaking of useless, that 3rd row. Would love to just have a big ass piece of storage space there as an option.
I have also heard from other review's that this car runs out of breathe overtaking at 110 - 130km ?

Maybe the old PHEV, but the 2023 has significantly more power and I had no trouble getting up to 130kph. I hope that's helpful.
Why didn't you test the acceleration in Power mode instead of Tarmac?

Tarmac is like sport mode and yeah power mode is gonna be quicker.

@@Blank00 Not true, at least in the Outlander PHEV. Tarmac is the name for sport mode. The modes are power, eco, normal, tarmac, gravel, snow and mud.
Interesting, thorough review. I always thought the Mitsubishi engineers know what they are doing, it's the corporate side which screwed the company over. e.g. why aren't they competing vs. Jeep with their Pajero? Makes no sense to me. L200 SUT, Delica van, ... so many missed opportunities.

Thank you! I Loved the Evo 8 and Evo 9, and the Eclipse's of the 90s were fun too.
In every review of this vehicle (both video and text) the "real world" MPG people get varies dramatically. Huge swings. No Idea what actually to expect

It depends on a lot of factors. Things like: weather, tire pressure, and-importantly-your driving style.

The biggest factor impacting real world mpg will be how far your typical drive is. If your day to day drive is within the battery range, then this is just an EV and you'll never use gas (I'm seeing something insane like 700+mpg over the past month, because i haven't gone more than 25 miles in a day lately). It will all depend how you use it, but count on insane mileage if you do lots of short trips and charge regularly, but middling mileage if you regularly deplete the battery.
If available in air suspension looks higher and handsome.
You recommended 2 other cars that you can't get for 2 years.
No garage door opener?

They have it. It’s in the in dash screen bc it goes through the phone app which connects to your car wirelessly.
Why does every car cost $50k?
Not sure why you need two moters, to gain nothing. On a mid to long range trip no fuel saving. It all seems a total wast.
