Of course it will be able to tow your load since it can tow 3500lbs in Europe, but it would be illégal, in case of an accident the insurance might not want to pat!

Got a reply from mitsubishi canada, the towing capacity is 680kg, no matter if we use electric brakes, the sae tests are harsh to pass :(

Its logic, but reducing the towing capacity from 1500 to 680kg is a lot, 680kg is limit for me to tow my tent trailer, and my platform trailer with the 2 atv will weigth about 750-800kg.

Just got the spec of the tests they make To determine the towing capacity in America, kinda harsh tests! http://www.trucktrend.com/how-to/towing/1502-sae-j2807-tow-tests-the-standard/

Fine, i wrote an e-mail To Mitsubishi motors canada, Will wait their repli, the tow bar they are selling here is rated at 1800kg, i may tow about 1400kg twice a year for about 210km.

Hmm then it is weird that the 6-cylinder outlander has a 1500kg towing capacity but the phev only 650kg when they have the same braking system and the same frame... I will wait until they get their phev shipment 2nd or 3rd week of january, and then ask the dealer about it.

This is weird, why would they lower it in canada?

Just read somewhere that the outlander phev has a 1500kg towing capacity with electric brakes in Australia and Europe. Just asked my dealer here in Canada and it is set at ~650kg, without any information when towing with electric brakes. Is there any differences between eu and canada/usa...
