I can't for the life of me understand all the discussion about PHEV mpg in posts, from motoring gurus and, including Mitsubishi compounding the problem by quoting it in marketing literature. True PHEV economy can only be measured in terms of energy cost per mile (petrol and mains electric) and...

Thanks for the help, gentlemen.

Can anyone tell me why the image when reversing sometimes shows the guide lines and sometimes not, even when there is clearly a potential obstacle?

Thanks for the reassurance.

Just returned from a holiday in Cornwall where we encountered several 10% inclines. The PHEV struggled up these inclines and, where there were overtaking lanes, was unable to overtake slower 'tourists' without impeding faster ICE cars. I found myself wondering how on earth caravaners could use...

Me and my PHEV have been laid up for eight weeks owing to me having sustained a broken ankle. Should I charge the auxiliary battery before driving the car again?

Anyone know where/if I can find an accurate MPG figure displayed after the' auto' Trip display has exceeded 99.9mpg? I find the history graphs less than useful owing to the scale used. I can do it manually as per previous I.C.E. cars but thought Mitsubishi would at least fit a three integer...

The easiest solutions are the best - thanks. :oops:

Thanks for that advice.

Most of my local driving involves frequent stops at traffic lights etc. Consequently, when stopped I engage 'N' (just as I did with a conventional auto-box ICE car) to avoid annoying drivers behind me with footbraking lights and also to avoid wasting battery power. However, it is irritating to...
