A couple of corrections to the commentary in this video. 1) He says when the battery runs flat the car returns to running on the petrol power alone. Not true. The Car returns to running as a hybrid, because the battery is never truly flat, so even when it can't run as an EV, the electric motors are assisting the petrol engine, or vice versa depending on the drive mode. 2) He says that he has seen 5-6 litres / 100km economy running on petrol when the battery is depleted and this does not match the Mitsubishi claimed figures of 1.5 l/100km. Mitsubishi are very clear that the 1.5 litres/100km is calculated by starting with a full battery and driving 100km.

Thanks for this review, I've watched it a few times. I am one of the 'select few' this car appeals to - big enough for our growing family, can get me through my short daily commute on electric power only, but also has the petrol engine to appease any range anxiety. It looks beautiful, it's techy, it has the required space for 3 kids, so I have ordered my 2024 PHEV GSR, and I can't wait until it arrives later in the year.

The reviewer is obviously pushing all electric. All electric being vastly inferior in every way to a PHEV vehicle. All electric are extremely limited in comparison to a PHEV. This Outlander is really the perfect blend. When he says things like “they may not recharge all the time”, it sounds absurd. Since he is pushing electric in the next sentence. For the most part, people who do not commute would never need to use gas with the Outlander in everyday life. Plugged into even low voltage will fill the battery overnight. Unlike electric, you can take the Outlander on a long trip while not having to stop every 3 hours for one. I always have to wonder a persons motivation with pushing electric over PHEV. Especially considering where the giant batteries that last 8-10 years are produced

@@2901gagandeepI charge mostly off rooftop solar so my bill hasn’t gone up really. Even at the highest electricity rate it’s about half the cost of petrol per km. If you drive mostly around town the outlander will be cheaper to run, if you drive mostly motorway Kms and long distances then the xtrail might get slightly better economy.

You say it loses it's shine because for the price you can get a full EV. Is there a 5+2 seater with this much boot space, ride comfort, physical buttons, and carplay? I think the Model Y is the closest and it's just not right in all the ways the outlander is right.
@AndrewMic265 ай бұрын
It actually cant run on petrol power unless its over 70km/h because the single speed gearbox has too high of a ratio for the petrol engine to run without stalling. The petrol engine provides power so the electric motors can drive the wheels and extra energy goes back into the batteries

Public Chademo fast chargers are disappearing fast as CVS is the winning standard and Chademo is dead. Around my area all fast chargers have converted their Chademo to CVS so forget public charging.There is no home two way DC charger that supports Chademo in Australia currently available according to Mitsubishi and is unlikely to become available in the future so forget any hope of doing V2G or V2H when this becomes legal (expected 2025). Outlander is best suited to people who charge at home with off street parking (especially with solar panels) and or want to do off road.

Not if you are on a Novated Lease because you won’t pay FBT. My nearly $77K Outlander PHEV costs me the same per week as a $40,000 petrol-powered car. An identical petrol Outlander that costs $16K less to purchase would cost $200 per fortnight more to lease than the $77K PHEV model

I don't understand 7 seaters where you can't fit in the middle row when using the back row? Certainly doesn't make sense for an average Aussie family. Not only that, but there are no top tether points that I can see in the third row, meaning kids can't use it until they're 8, then there's only very few years before they won't fit anymore.. Seems like a pointless car to me, the Kia Sorento looks to be a far better option, if only they came in better supply of phev's.

Exactly my thoughts, too. But from 4 yo onwards (at least in WA), a child can go on a booster seat, which doesn't require a tether in the 3rd row.
