Is anyone else surprised that UK's website and availability is ahead of Japan, especially considering that 100% of phev's are made in Japan?

Could this be the first production review of MY2019? Ok, so it's not very in-depth, I have no idea what he's saying, and it just looks like he's running an errand. But at least this is a non-white non-pre-production model not in France: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTdIXKRnofQ

UK configurator for MY2019 phev is now live...

Perhaps it will help taking a closer look at the link provided for MY2019. I've kept that link up-to-date, and provided 3 references to US dealers expecting the full updates. The modest bump in battery size also means the federal tax credit will increase from $5,836 to US $6,711 (not the max...

First of all, with all the improvements incoming for MY2019 ( http://www.myoutlanderphev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3755 ), are you sure you don't want to wait for it? In regards to extended warranty, how much more coverage do you need beyond the standard 10 year/100,000 miles (...

I have a 2014 BMW X1 sdrive28i with start/stop (thankfully with a button to turn this on or off) and can answer a few of these questions. BMW's battery specs are 80AH 800A CCA, whereas the Outlander's specs are 45AH 325A CCA (reference...

How's this:

If this article is accurate, MY2019 has arrived! (in the UK, at least): https://www.automotiveworld.com/news-releases/first-shipment-of-2019-mitsubishi-outlander-phev-arrives-in-the-uk However, there is no hint of this August 1st availability date on Mitsubishi's websites, either for UK or...

I will be moving from a 2014 BMW X1 sdrive28i (at least the e84 was based on the e91 3-series platform) to a 2019 Outlander phev whenever it's available in the USA. I'm not expecting anything remotely close to a BMW driving experience. Although I've never owned a Mitsubishi before, I have plenty...

Even if the explanation doesn't make sense, I try to understand why. Why do they risk giving an explanation that people like yourself dismiss as "nonsense"? In this case, why are they discouraging non-OEM parts? (My take, at least in the USA, there are many low-quality wheels flooding the...

Thanks OP updated. I'm going by official websites to be safe, but please let me know if you see them in the UK within the next few weeks.

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread/question, the official answer was not easy to find. According to Toshinaga Kato, drive-battery life is "eight years if it is carefully used": https://www.bangkokpost.com/auto/news/1495862/mitsubishi-stays-committed-to-thai-ev-drive What does he mean by...

Probably cost related. According to this article, we get an idea of thresholds. For Hyundai, air-cooling is sufficient for 27kWh, but not 64: https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1116041_5-things-about-the-2019-hyundai-kona-electric-we-learned-at-the-ny-auto-show This doesn't answer your...

And what if the manual is correct? I found out that the Outlander PHEV has two transaxles. Could it be that the manual is referring to the differentials within the transaxles?

The USA manual on 3-27 refers to a "main drive lithium ion battery warming system", whether that is the same warming system for the cabin, and whether all models outside of USA spec has this, I'm not sure: I believe it is because of the above, that this reference also recommends keeping the...

STS, so if I charge up to 14 bars (~80%)*, and then start up the vehicle and immediately press Save, and drive for 20 miles, would the drive-battery stay for the most part at 80% and the ICE run constantly for the 20 miles? Or during the drive, would the ICE start charging the drive-battery...

I wonder why in Save mode the battery still depletes by as much as 25%... perhaps ICE power alone is not enough for a/c or other functions? Anyway, similar to STS, I'm leaning towards the Outlander phev not so that I can drive on battery power most of the time, but because the tax credits and...

But also think about DoD and how to take care of the drive-battery long-term, see STS134's explanation in this thread: http://www.myoutlanderphev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3738&start=30 He references this...

Sorry I don't know. Either it was an oversight to leave this verbiage in there from the non-phev to the phev, or could they be referring to the front trans-axle (aka "multi-mode eTransmission")? Ok so now that you've mentioned it, anyone install aftermarket rims successfully with tpms? I was...
