After annual service and sw update the Settings Menu does not include the preheating option. Just not there. Any suggestions, what could be wrong? Anything I can fix myself? I called the service and the suggested I need to come over, but it is quite far away and I would be happy to avoid the trip.

After replacing windscreen with a crack my rain detector lost sensitivity and is turning the windscreen wiper on with too low frequency. Any suggestion about possible adjustment? (PHEV 2015)

Mitsubishi Presents Slightly Updated 2017 Model Year Outlander PHEV In Paris. "On the changes: EV priority switch – to prevent the PHEV system to switch to hybrid mode and therefore retain the full electric driving on demand." Finally ...

PHEV manual says it uses v.2.0+EDR Bluetooth. I was using until now Galaxy S Advanced with v.3.0 Bluetooth without problems, now changed to Galaxy A3 with v.4.0 and no connection at all. Description of Bluetooth says 4.0 is downwards compatible to 3.0, but not 2.0. Any chance for a go-around...

Will the Outlander PHEV meet the ULEZ exemption without the pure EV mode? It should become effective 2020, but I found no mention of PHEV or EV in the news. http://www.tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/ultra-low-emission-zone?cid=ultra-low-emission-zone#on-this-page-0 Just curious.

How many miles and time we save by not having to visit the gas station so often? Did anybody estimate it? This is one more advantage of driving a PHEV, I have found mentioned neither on this forum nor elsewhere.

Pretty sad. They were pioneers in PHEV SUV, in 2016 they will be followers... Mitsubishi recently told Automotive News that the plug-in version of the Outlander won’t hit American dealerships until the second quarter of 2016. More here...

More and more PHEV use haptic feedback on gas pedal to mark the point, when the ICE is going to turn on in the pure EV mode. IMHO very useful function, helping you to adjust your driving style to your environment awareness. Here the example from new Porsche Panamera: When the battery is...

I am slowly becoming sure, it is... Audi A3 e-tron: The EV button on the Audi A3 will give you 31 miles of electric range, Toyota Camry Hybrid The small Toyota Yaris: Toyota Prius: Plug-In Prius: Toyota Auris: Toyota Highlander SUV: BYD F3DM EV Button

The BYD Tang features a 2.0 liter turbo powered petrol unit rated at 205 HP and 320 Nm (236 lb-ft) of torque, as well as two electric motors, each producing 150 HP as well as 200 Nm (147 lb-ft) of torque. A basic understanding of elementary mathematics helps us piece together a total output of...

“With regenerative braking on demand, driving the all-new 2016 Volt puts the power in your hands. A steering wheel-mounted paddle that allows you to control your regenerative braking takes power that’s normally lost and puts it into the battery. That’s just one of the many unrivaled {sic}...

When it comes to electric vehicles, Europeans are showing a distinct preference for Mitsubishi's Outlander PHEV sport utility vehicle, followed by the LEAF and Tesla's Model S. For the month of October, which seems like ages ago now, the Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in was far ahead of the pack...

Mitsubishi remains committed to the US, plans to introduce Outlander PHEV. So now it means it was the battery bottleneck, not technical problems? I hope, we will all profit from the improvements done to PHEV for US. Source...

The batteries of the Boeing 787 are by the same manufacturer like ours, in our Outlander PHEV. I thought it could be interesting for you to see what conclusions NTSB had on the battery fire case. One safety recommendations for GS Yuasa, battery manufacturer. Full report to be found here...

Not only the well discussed problem with ICE starting to heat the cabin, but the ICE seems to keep running the wheels and later charging the battery even when almost full, so there is no regen braking at all. Today was driving 10km by -5C and hand almost no regen in the city and no battery...

If I cannot preheat, but the battery is full, what is better: 1. Let the PHEV decide (as it does usually) and heat with the battery (using up to 4-5 kW) 2. Put her to Save mode and force the ICE run and heat the car with the waste heat. Assumed is longer drive that will use the full battery...

Mitsubishi has chosen to use the Lithium Energy Japan batteries for the Outlander PHEV, instead of the Toshiba SCiB™ used for the iMiEV, with all the known consequences (delays, failures). Why? The SCiB™ seems to have much better parameters and is gaining ground in many applications...

I tried to transfer my phone book from mobile to the car memory to no avail, and got the message: "import not possible". My phone is well connected to the bloototh, showing as phone and music source. I can receive and make calls, but have to use my phone book and select from the phone. Anybody...

Hi, Outlander PHEV fans and owners. I am an electric vehicle freak from Poland, about to pick up my Outlander PHEV today. Very exciting day. :) I don't know if it is the first one in Poland (except the demo dealer's machines) but I am, and always, was the "early adopter" or " Lighthouse...
