Celebrating 6 years of the Outlander PHEV

On April 1st 2014 we launched the Outlander PHEV, a game-changer in the green vehicle market. It was the first Plug-in Hybrid SUV, offering ultra-low emissions, incredible fuel economy and a sublime driving experience that customers all over the world fell in love with.

The best-selling plug-in hybrid in the world

An overnight success. An instant classic.

Outlander PHEV offered a unique proposition: a car that could do the daily commute for pennies per day and virtually no emissions, while at the same time offering a spacious family SUV perfect for adventures, on or off the road.

The ultimate plug-in hybrid

Powered by an advanced plug-in hybrid powertrain, employing an electric motor on each axle for true all-wheel-drive EV performance, the Outlander PHEV was truly the car that kicked off the UK's interest in low emission vehicles, boosting the plug-in hybrid market tenfold.
