There's been much confusion, and unfortunately Mitsubishi hasn't chimed in yet with an official launch date for the Outlander plug-in hybrid.
As recently as March 19, GreenCarReports.com was reporting that the Outlander PHEV would be delayed in the US due to California regulations, and wouldn't arrive until the last quarter of 2015, or even the first quarter of 2016.
Now, GreenCarReports.com is citing an unnamed source saying that the 2016 plug-in hybrid Outlander will arrive with a limited launch in Fall 2015. The 2016 Outlander plugin is set to arrive int he US with mid-cycle update changes that are part of the gasoline powered 2014 Outlander.
I hope they're right, sooner is better. I'd hate to see Mitsubishi lose out on so much market share because they are late to market - they were set to be the first in North America with a plug-in hybrid SUV offereing...
