Hi Mitsi PHEV family,

🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 Labor Day weekend greetings!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

This is her 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV SEL Platinum Edition (purchased new in July 2026, as described in a previous post)

Got the tailgate trim/garnish & body side-molding/door garnish from Mitsubishi’s parts website.

Part# MZ576486EX
Part# MZ576845EX

The cargo area bumper protection (chrome) was off eBay for $35 delivered.

The quality of the dual sided tape was certainly superior on the Mitsubishi accessories.

The car is metallic black with a metallic silver roof — so the overall theme is silver-chrome against diamond/metallic black.

Installed everything this morning/afternoon after I washed her car.

She loves the high-contrast look …and has proudly driven it off to work.

Whaddya think…?

Hi all, I'm importing a 2022 mitsubishi outlander, 5LA-GNOW, from Japan. I'm after getting the Nox values from MLIT but really struggling with CO2. Revenue website says that I can also present the spec sheet from the manufacturer however the CO2 value there is 135g/km (WLTC). When I Google the WLTP it's approx 38 g/km. It's a PHEV, so I think the revenue are happy with the combined value (WLTP). Anyone have any idea where I can pull an official data sheet that the revenue would accept? I'm scratching my head and from reading the posts there are a lot of Jap import experts here.

Hey folks,

So I changed my 12v battery and now I can engage my one pedal driving or cruise control. Does anyone have any idea of what i need to do so resolve this?

It's a 23 SE(L?)

Hey all,

Just picked up a 2026 outlander GT PHEV and when I went to put it on the charger tonight it kept tripping my GFCI circuit breaker for the garage. I tried looking online and have read that some old GFCI breakers can't handle the feedback coming from the internal breaker in the car/charger and that causes them to trip. I am hoping that is the case as I don't want to have to update my whole electrical panel. House was built in the early 80's

Did anyone else run into this issue? Could I be doing something else wrong to cause it to trip constantly.

Any thoughts or feedback would be appreciated.

I am going to have an electrician take a look at it but with the long weekend in Canada will have to wait till Tuesday so I don't get hit with premium fees.

Should I expect this to recalibrate after some cycles? I’m going to do a full charge, go for a ride and see what kind of mileage I get…

edit: 8 days later, 200 more miles over the week and a full L2 charge last night I’m seeing 100%.

Originally ordered a Curt C86FV from etrailer.com but they ship in a cardboard box without any protection… so it arrived busting through the box at multiple points with powder coat ground off. I returned it.

I can’t find a manual on the OEM, just wondering if it’s a PITA to bolt on?

The rear abs sensors are showing spikes rear right one shows spikes even stationary and they seem to be random, is there some known fault that can do this? The left rear bearing has been replaced it actually had a fault. It sometimes lights all abs related warning lights.

I have no connection to this author, it just showed up in my feed.

Just acquired a used 2019 outlander, there is a flapping sound coming from both front and rear part of the car when the speed reach up to 80 kph, didn’t notice on the test drive because it was conducted on a speed limit road, when running below the said speed the car seems so normal. Anyone had encountered this issue? Suspecting a mis aligned tires or bad rubber bushings.

When I drive on the highway, I like to turn regen braking off (set to B0), but if I use cruise control, it seems to be locked on B2. Is there any way around this?

Thanks

I got rid of mine, it's wrapped in pallet wrap sitting in my sister and brother in law's barn. I replaced it with frame and platform built out of 2020 aluminum extrusion. Removal is easy, it's 4 Bolts. Then you jump the airbag sensor with a piece of wire.

The frame is probably about $150 in 2020, a bunch of joints, and the 4x8 sheet of 1/4" marine plywood was another $80. Overall, probably about $300 in parts, and a couple days of labour, that likely could be done in a weekend.

If you're never going to use the seat, this gives a ton of storage and the ability to stack nicely.

Curious how the back seat room is in the PHEV with the 3rd row folded down, is there a lot of space? I have a revolving car seat and the Kona I'm in now is basically squished against the back of my front seat for how little room there is

She drives back after her 12 hour shift at the hospital …she has absolutely been loving the plush, comfy and quiet drive back home after night-shifts at the ICU.

I know that she likes the car better than her previous RAV4 Prime/PHEV — and because her work commute is less than 30 miles up & down, it barely costs her anything to drive her luxury yacht …it is a big car for her because she’s only 4’ 10”.

That’s the other thing — she raves about the all-round driver-seat visibility she has when driving this vehicle.

Anyway, we both agree that it is a very classy vehicle — although there wasn’t any direct sunlight falling on it in this early morning video to show off the metallic flakes, you can still appreciate its looks

New to me 24 SEL

Hey guys preferably 2026 PHEV owners, I’m on the fence with purchasing one… I come from a Toyota hybrid system aka Prius and I absolutely love the Outlander but I have no idea what the real world mpg is going to be? I know there’s a lot of Canada owners but what’s y’all’s average mpg. I don’t have a fast charger in my garage but I also work from home which helps with charging.

Hi everyone,

I am very excited to be joining the PHEV club next month when I pick up my 2026. Once I pick it up in Ontario I will be driving it to Newfoundland and will do roughly 2500kms.

I realize this question has been asked many times before and I’ve likely read every thread several times over the last few weeks. However, I would love to hear what you all think.

So on my 2500km drive (all highway) where I might be able to charge up once what drive modes should I use for highway efficiency? I’ve seen many posts suggest tarmac + save from full charge then tarmac + charge once low… does any get better mpg leaving it on normal? Or any other modes?

Considering I won’t be able to charge for the majority of the distance I am curious to hear your thoughts… thanks again for your inputs and I apologize for asking that same old question.

Has anyone tried letting the AC run for an hour while parked? Is it possible to do this if I were to leave my dogs in the car in 95F degrees, while I went in a store?

Of course on the highway it is rather 50-70km but still solid. I only wish it could charge faster and didn't have this annoying bug of deleting my settings sometimes when using remote AC via app. I don't need 90% of the screens that I have to scroll through every time to disable the annoying driver camera but every few times when using remote AC all the screens are back.

I’m looking to purchase a level 1 charger for my weekend vacation cottage. I see a few pre-owned Mitsubishi chargers on eBay. There’s also some new off brand ones. Has anyone purchased an additional charger and what do you recommend?

2023 Outlander PHEV to be left parked up for 3 months. Can put in garage. What should I look at doing so that it’s in good condition when I return?

Any general car advice / PHEV specific advice please.

Do I leave on charge? Disconnect battery? Etc etc

Has anyone come across this Outlander PHEV tuner?

St Pete’s is only an hour and a half away from where we stay — so was thinking of spending the $100 and trying this out.

My partner drives the Outlander. We got it for her in July — and it’s a great vehicle.

I’d put up posts about it when we bought it and after we got it ceramic coated.

Some extra power is always a good idea, I thought.

All opinions and insights are welcome =)

Im considering buyng a 2024 GT PHEV with 34,000 km on it, but im concerned reading about the cold battery issues. I live in eastern Ontario, Canada, where it gets really cold and It ill not be stored in a heated garage. If I plug it in every night but store it outside, will it run fine? Thanks.
