Key Features of the 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-In Hybrid

Twin Motor S-AWC (Super All-Wheel Control)

Mitsubishi’s rally-bred Super All-Wheel Control is the heart of the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid’s calm, surefooted character. Twin electric motors—one at the front and one at the rear—allow S-AWC to seamlessly modulate torque and braking force for balanced grip and confident cornering. Seven selectable drive modes let you tailor the driving experience: Normal optimizes everyday efficiency and comfort; Power sharpens throttle response for merging and passing; Eco prioritizes electric-first operation; Tarmac brings a sportier, more planted feel on dry pavement; Gravel and Snow improve stability on loose or slick surfaces; and Mud is tuned for low-traction conditions. The result is poised handling and traction you can feel, backed by Mitsubishi’s decades of AWD expertise.

20.0 kWh Lithium-Ion Drive Battery

The robust 20.0 kWh lithium-ion drive battery is central to the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid’s strong electric performance. It stores enough energy for a meaningful EV commute while integrating seamlessly with the gasoline engine for extended range. With a properly installed home Level 2 charger, you can recharge to 100% overnight. When time is tight on the road, compatible DC fast charging can bring the battery to approximately 80% in around 38 minutes. Thermal management helps maintain consistent performance, and smart energy flow logic supports both EV and hybrid driving modes with smooth transitions that you hardly notice.

38-Mile All-Electric Range

With up to 38 miles of all-electric range on a full charge, many daily drives can be completed without using gasoline. That means a quieter, more serene commute and fewer stops at the pump. The system will automatically optimize when to use electric or hybrid power depending on demand, and you can choose modes that favor electric usage when it makes sense. Regenerative braking recaptures energy as you slow down—especially useful in stop-and-go traffic or rolling suburban routes—so you arrive with more charge than you expect. For longer journeys, the hybrid system extends your range seamlessly, making the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid a compelling one-vehicle solution for both weekday and weekend travel.

7 Passenger Seating

Inside, the 2025 Outlander Plug-in Hybrid provides an upscale, flexible environment for up to seven. Thoughtful ergonomics make it easy to load kids and cargo, and the rearmost seats fold when you need a flatter cargo floor. Attention to detail is evident throughout, from available semi-aniline leather-appointed seating to quiet cabin tuning that pairs beautifully with EV operation. A 12.3" Full Digital Driver Display presents crucial information clearly, while the center 9" display integrates Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ for simplified connectivity. Available conveniences—such as heated front and rear seats and a power panoramic sunroof—elevate daily comfort on school runs, grocery trips, and longer family drives.

MI-PILOT Assist™

Available MI-PILOT Assist™ brings modern driver assistance to help ease highway driving. By coordinating adaptive cruise control with lane support functions, it helps you maintain speed, following distance, and lane position with a light touch on the wheel. It works alongside a suite of advanced safety technologies, including systems such as Forward Collision Mitigation with Pedestrian Detection and multiple airbags. This integrated approach is designed to reduce fatigue on longer drives and add extra reassurance when traffic ebbs and flows. Paired with the vehicle’s premium ride and quiet EV operation, MI-PILOT Assist™ helps create a calmer, more focused driving experience.
