    Got it today!

    Welcome. I like those wheels, especially on a black car. Are they Mitsubishi factory options ? I've never seen them here in the UK.

    How to charge PHEV quickly?

    I can confrim this is correct. My 2019 4HS will charge from 'flat' to 'full' in a little over 5.5 hours, at a little over 9.1A charge current. I have monitored the current the charger consumes during the start-up phase and can confirm that a small load current is drawn for the first 30 seconds...

    New PHEV arrived - EV range question

    That's not far off the same as me then - mine is slightly more range but we haven't had -5 deg.C yet. Average lows of about 3-4 deg.C here, so I'd expect mine to go a little further with less heating required..

    EV Mode - Purpose ?

    I have not yet seen any difference between the modes in operation. We have had the outside temperature below 10 deg.C here many times so far, and I always have the heater on (climate set to 20.0 deg.C) and the engine does not start until the battery is exhausted. Only other piece of information...

    EV Mode - Purpose ?

    I've now had my 2019 Outlander for nearly two months, and I am yet to figure out what difference using the EV mode button actually makes. For example; EV Mode - car operates drive on batteries until they are depleted, then gives a message 'EV mode cancelled due to low charge state' or...

    New PHEV arrived - EV range question

    I am seeing now the weather is colder an actual range of about 24-25 miles max. The EV range indication has now settled down showing the same after a full charge. It seems to me that it also learns the fact that I am using the cabin heater and reduces the range accordingly. To me, so far use of...

    Charge cables

    Cheapest I've seen is about £110 which is ludicrous for what it is in my view.. Perhaps let us know a more cost effective option ?

    Long Distance MPG

    Just thought I'd add my first experience of a longer trip with no charging being done. Over this weekend did a trip from Peterborough to Bath, two adults on board with luggage - full tank of unleaded to begin with and a full charge; Outbound journey A mixture of A roads, faster A roads (A34 -...

    Using Mostly petrol in winter..

    Not sure if it is new for 2019 - but they do prevent misting on the screen both inside and out. I had one in my Volvo V70 too and they are great for icey mornings. It would be interesting to know what the power consumption of these systems are; Heated windscreen, heated seats, heated steering...

    Using Mostly petrol in winter..

    Thanks - can't open that link here - "Sorry, this content is not available in your region." I did find this though some weeks ago, not sure if anyone's seen it or it's already linked somewhere, thought it might be of interest to some (no sign of any changes in the heating system in here...

    Using Mostly petrol in winter..

    I assumed, rightly or wrongly, that the Outlander heater is a heat pump which uses the same compressor as the air conditioning system - i.e. a 'climate control' system in the true sense of the words. Air conditioning and heating can be done with the same compressor/evaporator/condensor systems...

    Newbie - tomorrow is the day...

    I have always generally set my Nav on journeys - even to destinations I know well. The main reason is it gives me an accurate ETA so if I need to call anyone or they call me, I can tell them. I now do the same with Waze in my Outlander, with an even more beneficial reason; use the remaining...

    Newbie - tomorrow is the day...

    I have tried this over the last few days on a few journeys I have made. Since I've had the Outlander (from early October) I have driven in B0 all the time, but used the paddles and/or stick to select B1-B5 depending on conditions BEFORE I then apply the foot brake (if needed at all). In...

    haha, it's on the RIGHT side in more ways than one! :lol: I hadn't read those no (thanks for the links), but I am aware of battery technology issues. So far, it seems the Outlander even when reporting a 'flat' battery, still retains around 2kWh of charge. The maximum I have ever been able to...

    Yes, there's one in the front too, you can just see it at the top of the first photo. I've had HD cams in cars for years now - never leave home without them.. :x

    MY19 manuals

    I think they did - since my car was supplied without manuals or service book (dealer/lease company mess-up..) the first thing I did was to look online. I didn't find them so I also contacted Mitsubishi via their online chat service and asked for them to be made available. I have to say they have...

    Newbie - tomorrow is the day...

    Yes quite correct. I have also noticed increased regen when applying light pressure to the foot brake even when already in B5 - almost as if it is a 'B6 or B7' setting. Does anyone know at what point(s) the brake pads actually apply braking force to the discs ?

    Indeed, many of my observations too. The V70 D4 was a great car, and I'll miss many aspects of it, but the savings associated with the Outlander PHEV with no loss of practicality cannot be ignored. Volvo seats are in my experience the very best ever made, with Saab being a close second. Best of...
