Key Features of the 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-In Hybrid

Twin Motor S-AWC (Super All-Wheel Control)

At the heart of the 2025 Outlander Plug-In Hybrid is Twin Motor S-AWC, Mitsubishi’s signature traction technology informed by decades of rally-bred engineering. Dual electric motors coordinate with S-AWC to fine-tune torque delivery to each axle, helping the SUV respond quickly and predictably on dry pavement and in low-traction situations. Seven selectable modes—Normal, Power, Eco, Tarmac, Gravel, Snow, and Mud—let you tailor handling and pedal response to your conditions and preference. The result is a planted, stable feel in highway sweepers, easier starts on slippery surfaces, and a sense of control that builds driver confidence. Whether you are merging, navigating a rain-soaked commute, or heading down a gravel lane to the campsite, S-AWC works behind the scenes to help keep the experience smooth and secure.

20.0 kWh Lithium-Ion Battery, 2.4L MIVEC Engine, and Seven Drive Modes

The plug-in hybrid system integrates a 20.0 kWh lithium-ion drive battery with a refined 2.4L MIVEC DOHC 4-cylinder engine, ensuring that performance is always available when you need it. In EV mode, the SUV can travel up to 38 miles on electric power alone, covering many daily commutes and errands. Hybrid driving extends total range to up to 420 miles, perfect for road trips or long days on the move. The Drive Mode Selector connects seamlessly with S-AWC, offering modes like Eco for maximum efficiency, Power for crisp response, and terrain-focused options including Snow and Mud. This holistic powertrain approach means you can prioritize efficiency, traction, or performance at will, all while enjoying the quiet, refined operation that makes the Outlander Plug-In Hybrid feel premium in everyday driving.

DC Fast Charging and Home Level 2 Charging

Charging flexibility is a core strength. On the go, DC fast charging can bring the battery to approximately 80% in about 38 minutes, a welcome convenience on busy days or longer journeys. At home, a properly installed Level 2 charger lets you replenish the battery to 100% overnight, so you start each morning with a “full tank” of electric miles. The vehicle also supports 120V/240V charging capability, giving you options if you are away from a dedicated Level 2 station. And when you are driving beyond EV range, the hybrid system seamlessly engages the gas engine—no special planning required. The net effect is simple: charge when and where it is convenient, and enjoy smooth, uninterrupted mobility wherever the day takes you.

Three-Row Seating, Cargo Utility, and Premium Appointments

Inside, versatility meets sophistication. Available seating for up to seven makes the Outlander Plug-In Hybrid an excellent fit for growing families or those who frequently need to carry extra passengers. The cabin features thoughtful storage, flexible folding for the second and third rows, and useful amenities like a 12.3-inch Full Digital Driver Display and a 9-inch center display for infotainment. Connectivity is modern and intuitive with Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Wired Android Auto™ support. Depending on trim, available upgrades include semi-aniline premium leather-appointed seats, heated front and rear seats, an available power panoramic sunroof, and an available Bose audio system that elevates the everyday soundtrack. Everywhere you look, the interior emphasizes quietness, comfort, and tactile quality—crucial for long drives and daily routines alike.

MI-PILOT Assist™ and Advanced Safety Suite

The 2025 Outlander Plug-In Hybrid integrates a suite of advanced safety and driver assistance features designed to support your awareness and reduce stress. Available MI-PILOT Assist™ helps with steering, acceleration, and braking support in certain driving scenarios, while systems like Forward Collision Mitigation (FCM) with Pedestrian Detection provide added confidence in traffic. Additional available technologies include a Head-Up Display, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, and a comprehensive airbag system—up to 11 airbags depending on configuration. Combined with the sure-footed dynamics of S-AWC, these technologies work together to help make every trip more secure, whether you are navigating city streets, cruising the interstate, or encountering winter weather.
