The new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV will be unveiled in a few days, and the first visuals are quite enticing.
In a few days, we will discover a Mitsubishi announced 18 months ago, so it’s safe to say that the diamond brand is being watched closely. The manufacturer’s latest models are hardly what you would call new. Between an SUV ASX which is based on the Renault Captur and the new Colt which is just a rebadged Clio, it’s hard to see a projection of the brand towards the future.
The second-generation Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV will therefore be the first true new model from Mitsubishi in nearly 10 years. It will arrive in France at the end of 2024 with an interesting plug-in hybrid technical base and 7 real seats tucked into 4.70 m. After catching a glimpse of its silhouette a few days ago, we are now seeing its front end, and we like it. This design aims to interpret the “Sculpted Dynamism” philosophy with a wide and powerful front end highlighted by full LED headlights. It’s rugged, and one can immediately sense a lineage with the much-missed Pajero. What if Mitsubishi could create a strong brand identity by drawing inspiration from the past? What a great idea that would be.
We now know that this Japanese off-roader will feature two electric motors and all-wheel drive with Super All-Wheel Control technology. It will also heavily showcase Japanese craftsmanship inside, thanks to a collaboration between Mitsubishi Motors and Yamaha Corporation. The new Outlander PHEV will be equipped with “Dynamic Sound Yamaha Ultimate” and “Dynamic Sound Yamaha Premium.” We do not yet know exactly what this entails, except that it promises a cutting-edge audio system. Ultimately, we are excited to discover this new Mitsubishi!
