We Say Goodbye to our Long Term 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV after 30,000 Miles
Показать описание
It’s that time of year when parents get ready to send off their college-bound kids, and we know how hard it is to say goodbye. We’re doing that now with our 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, graduating from its year-long tour at MotorWeek HQ.
Over those 12 months, we’ve tallied 29,776 miles, a lot for any long term. No wonder. This plug-in hybrid’s overall efficiency of 29.2 mpg rates a great score in our book, as does the 38 miles of electric-only range observed in our test. In the same vein, the “charge” drive mode was great at recouping spent electrons, returning up to 30 miles of range to the battery over one 150-mile highway commute.
Looking beyond the numbers, this three-row utility really proved its worth, from MotorWeek support vehicle to daily driver, road trip warrior and everything in between.
We could point to a lot of individual things we enjoyed over the year-long test, but it all adds up to one simple fact: The Outlander PHEV is an exceptionally comfortable and practical daily driver and road trip cruiser. Naturally, the suspension and the plug-in hybrid powertrain deserve a lot of the credit, but it’s what’s on the inside that really puts it over the top. Comfortable seats and an upscale feel throughout. This utility really over-delivered.
All in all, the 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is a well-rounded experience. If it were to receive a final report card from us, it’d walk across the stage with straight A’s.
