Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV towing
Taking towing to the next level
The Mitsubishi Outlander is the world's first Plug-in Hybrid EV SUV. Motors on both front and rear axles and an efficiently powerful petrol engine work in harmony to optimise performance.
A 1500kg braked towing limit
Towing strength when you need it
The Outlander PHEV has a 1500kg braked towing limit and a 750 unbraked limit. That’s the weight of a medium caravan, for example, a 17 foot Swift that weighs 1468 kg.
Solid towing
Pulling strength with the petrol engine
There’s a 2.0-litre petrol engine with develops 119bhp and 140lb ft of torque.
Quieter towing
Pulling strength with the electric motors
The PHEV is more than capable of towing on electricity alone. The Mitsubishi accelerates from 30-60mph, as when joining the motorway, in under 12 seconds.
The Outlander PHEV 4WD system
Better towing through an advanced 4WD system
The Outlander PHEV has an advanced 4WD system on board called S-AWC (Super All Wheel Control). Having all four wheels driven whilst towing provides superior stability and safety, especially if road conditions deteriorate during the journey.
Regenerative Braking
Creating power even when you’re towing
Kinetic energy is generated naturally as the vehicle brakes. To help you keep your battery charge topped up, the Outlander PHEV makes use of this energy. In other words, the electric motor is using the vehicle's momentum to recover energy that would be otherwise lost to the brake discs as heat.
Paddle selectors
Control the amount of energy you regenerate
A paddle selector on the steering wheel allows you to control the amount of energy you regenerate. Choose from six levels depending on driving conditions. The other benefit of this innovative technology is it's more eco-friendly: you'll be relying on the petrol engine less often.
Multi Around Monitor
Locating that towball is really easy
Tiny cameras all around the Outlander PHEV allow you keep an eye on the front, rear and sides of your vehicle. Using the collected data, the Multi Around Monitor can also create a bird's-eye visual of the vehicle to help you orientate yourself and park more safely.
Towing safety
Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)
TSA increases stability when towing. If vehicle swaying is detected, it automatically controls engine power and the braking force at each wheel to stabilise the vehicle and trailer.
