For what it's worth, User Manual 9-17:

Found this in the manual at 3-24 in regards to the wall outlet for standard 120V charging:

I'm not sure if this helps, according to the user manual in section 3-25: So according to the above: - "If I turn the heater on manually whilst charging at home, will this drain the battery?" If this is true, while charging, the J display, the one showing the battery level icon, will...

Assuming the federal tax credit stays in place for 2019 and that USA gets the powertrain update, at least with the 13.8kWh battery, the credit will increase to $6,711 (from $5,836), a small incentive for waiting I guess (along with the MY2019 improvements). The big question in the next few...

Good to know, thanks for verifying.

I don't think MY2019 Hyundai Sante Fe PHEV will be ready this year either - we may have to wait until Q1 of 2019 to see comparisons of the Sante Fe and Outlander PHEVs, bummer.

I don't see it in the TSB list here: https://www.truedelta.com/Mitsubishi-Outlander-tsbs-220,2017 (change url year to see other years), there is one about phone static noise: Maybe they will add this one soon, thanks for sharing.

2019 non-PHEV Outlander has now shown up on Mitsu Australia: https://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/vehicles/outlander Based on the non-PHEV's trim levels, one can get an idea of what items are standard and what are only available on a higher trim. The assumptions below are based on USA trim...

Thank you for this comparison. Although I have already decided on the Outlander PHEV, I was still curious how it compares to other PHEVs in the way it drives, and this was helpful in understanding that.

Good point: ICE-turn-on-NVH for series versus parallel modes. Most likely the Car and Driver review of the Chevy Volt was describing series mode. It would be helpful if PHEV reviews would compare NVH between the two modes (we all know EV mode is quiet and smooth), or at least specify which mode...

https://www.bangkokpost.com/auto/news/1495862/mitsubishi-stays-committed-to-thai-ev-drive When describing the 2019 Outlander PHEV, Toshinaga Kato, vice executive officer of Mitsubishi's Asean division, was quoted as saying: Wouldn't we love for him to expound what he means by "carefully...

I would also say using regen braking often would reduce battery life/capacity, since that increases the charge cycles. The graph in this reference shows the relationship between the number of charge cycles with depth-of-discharge and how it affects battery life...

Hello Richard, first of all, you can download the Outlander PHEV manual here: https://carmanuals2.com/get/mitsubishi-outlander-phev-2018-owner-s-manual-111847 On page 5-56 of that manual, it explains: In other words, more resistance = more energy (for the drive-battery). "How often you need...

Based on the above logic, one could dismiss any and all criticism against the Outlander PHEV, since it is the only SUV PHEV in its price range. To mitigate that reality and provide a somewhat fair basis for comparison, is the reason why my question was very targeted, the specific PHEV operation...

I'm curious how the Outlander compares to other PHEV's in the same price range in regards to ICE-turn-on NVH. For example, Car and Driver says about the Chevy Volt ICE turn-on: https://www.caranddriver.com/chevrolet/volt I've never heard the Outlander's ICE turn-on described like this. So is...

Wired UK review out: http://www.wired.co.uk/article/mitsubishi-outlander-phev-2019-review One component they particularly criticize is the GKN eTransmission, and the overall tone of the review leans toward the negative.

Until the Boeing Dreamliner fires, I've never heard of GS Yuasa, I don't think they're at the forefront of battery technology. For the Renault Zoe 41kwh, the Wiki page does mention they partnered with LG Chem to develop the batteries, and we already know Tesla is primarily partnered with...

Thanks Chris, I'll take your word for it and update the OP.

Car Magazine review out: https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-reviews/mitsubishi/outlander-phev Some new information from that review: - the tires have been upgraded from Toyo brand to Yokohama brand - the "new" 2.4L ICE automatically switches between Otto and Atkinson cycle - the ICE tranny is...

In the US, the federal tax credit towards plug-ins and EV is based solely on the battery capacity, maxing out at $7500. Currently the 2018 Outlander PHEV is at $5,836, meaning just for the US market, they could increase the battery capacity until reaching that $7,500 :) :) :) Combined with...
