Wow that is great - I guess that's what I get for driving an 8 year old SUV. I miss out on what the latest vehicle technology can do! This is really good news for my commute as I often run into stop and go traffic for approximately 1 mile as traffic funnels onto a narrow bridge.

I agree - the Model X is a pure electric vehicle, not a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. Except for people buying the Outlander PHEV purely for electric driving (which means they never expect to travel farther than 20 miles or so), the vehicle is not a comparable.

Hi Samuel, thanks very much for sharing. What mode do you travel in when in the city? And are you able to heat without the ICE or does it not put out enough heat for your liking? I would have expected this PHEV to handle a 5.5km trip without having to use the gasoline engine. Do you pre-heat...

I think the idea is that you have wireless connection while you are in the vehicle/driving etc. I don't think the idea is that it's supposed to supply wifi from the vehicle into your house, and actually I think the signal would be weak on purpose to limit anyone else trying to connect and use...

Bullit - Are you in Sweden? The first shipment of 20 Outlander PHEVs arrived in Sweden in October, according to the link above. When did ordering first open? March seems quite early to still not have received your plug-in!

Nooo! That's not what I wanted to hear :) Do you know how the 12V is hooked up? Is it basically a direct feed from the battery pack, or is it from the 12V battery I guess? What I am wondering is if there would be a way to hook up a 110V inverter with 1500W or more power? Is the 12V output...

Does anyone have info on the auxiliary power? How much power does it output, and will it be available in the US? I assume it is outputting DC power, but that isn't very useful, so perhaps they convert it to AC?

Congratulations! I can't wait for when mine will be available... In my experience, if tires have a flat spot they will usually round out again after driving on them for a while. 5 weeks of sitting still isn't really too long and modern tire construction should be able to handle it without issue...

I guess Mitsubishi had to make a decision - offer a third row seat and put the controller components into the cargo space, or otherwise eliminate the third row and maintain the large cargo space.

Case - any update on your Outlander PHEV? You said it was scheduled for around Christmas. Did you get it!?

There's an interesting article on AutoNews.com that says the Outlander plug-in hybrid was delayed 2 years because of bottlenecks in battery production. They've sold over 8100 of them in Japan. Mitsubishi can only get 4000 battery packs a month, and is expecting an increase to 5000 packs per...

Mitsubishi has announced that pricing on the i-MiEV will be lowered by $6000 but there is no news on the Outlander PHEV :( I was hoping Mitsubishi would set some US rollout plans or something interesting. But we still don't know when the Outlander plug-in hybrid will be available in the US...

In my experience, dealerships are way farther behind then they should be on new vehicles like this. I had troubles getting any information on the Ford Focus Electric until it was actually at my local dealership! It's like they didn't even know it was coming until a truck showed up with it on it...

The pictures have worked for me to see the inside of the Outlander PHEV and where the batteries are located and the engines too.

Dear people, I am active on the board since a while and I have opened many posts about the Outlander PHEV to learn about it more and more. And now most important, yesterday I ordered my new Outlander! Is it the executive edition with Amethyst Black and intro pack and protection pack. Expected...

Now that Mitsubishi has started to ship the Outlander plug-in hybrid vehicle to Europe, they've released specs for it as well. Of most interest to me, is the listing that tow capacity is rated at 1,500 kg (3,300 lbs). Does anyone know if the Outlander comes with a hitch, and that's what the...

As of this week, Mitsubishi Motors has said the Outlander PHEV is now officially on sale in Europe. The first plug-in hybrid electric vehicles are hitting the Netherlands now. European production of the Outlander PHEV began in early August, and Netherlands was always designated as the launch...

Don't rely on me - I'm in North America so I'll be waiting for the Outlander PHEV until 2015 just like you. It brings tears to my eyes (figuratively at least)!

Hi fellow PHEV Forum people! Does all know if the production version of the Outlander PHEV has different front and rear grills/fascias/bumpers to make it stand out from original Outlander. Or is only the charge-plug port and cover the single one to make the PHEV different looks from the Outlander?

Mitsubishi Japan has released some strange commercials for the upcoming 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. There's a European pitchman with a booming voice who dons a ladies wig 45 seconds into the commercial - why?! :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hM5nBNoQhCQ Also of note in this commercial is...
