Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) has unveiled the all-new Outlander, the brand’s pioneering — and Japan’s bestselling — Plug-in Hybrid Electric (PHEV) Vehicle to the Philippine market. The new Outlander PHEV serves as MMPC’s flagship model and represents the culmination of Mitsubishi Motors’ expertise in SUV engineering, bringing together its renowned Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system and advanced PHEV technology
The Outlander, powered by a 2.4L gasoline engine with MIVEC, paired with front and rear electric motors, intelligently switches between electric and gasoline power to deliver exceptional performance while maximizing efficiency. Together, the system produces a combined output of 306ps and 450Nm of torque, enabling responsive and smooth acceleration, and a combined driving range of almost 1,000 kilometers, with 100 kilometers of pure electric range.
Unique to this model, the driver has full control over switching multiple EV drive modes (Normal, Save, Charge, and EV Priority), giving drivers the confidence to travel farther with peace of mind. Further, it supports AC Type 2 charging, making it compatible with the Philippines’ EV charging infrastructure.
Even when charging facilities are unavailable, the Outlander PHEV continues to operate efficiently as a hybrid electric vehicle, ensuring uninterrupted mobility while allowing drivers to embrace electrification at their own pace.
True 4WD capability: Legendary S-AWC
At the heart of the new Outlander is Mitsubishi’s renowned Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) — a fully integrated system that brings together the Twin-Motor 4WD, Active Yaw Control (AYC), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Active Stability Control (ASC), Traction Control System (TCS). By intelligently coordinating these systems, S-AWC continuously optimizes traction, stability, and handling — giving drivers greater confidence and control across a wide range of road and driving conditions.
Complementing the S-AWC are seven selectable drive modes, grouped according to driver preference and road conditions. Normal, Eco, and Power modes allow drivers to tailor the vehicle’s performance to suit everyday driver style, maximizing efficiency and responsiveness. Meanwhile, Tarmac, Gravel, Snow, and Mud modes optimize power delivery and traction control based on varying road surfaces, helping the vehicle maintain composure and capability to tackle challenging off-road terrains.
Advanced safety is likewise reinforced in the new Outlander with the Mitsubishi Motors Safety Sensing (MMSS) suite, which includes Forward Collision Mitigation, Blind Spot Warning, Lane Change Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning, Automatic High Beam, and Driver Attention Alert.
Updated Dynamic Shield design
The new Outlander is designed to embody its heritage while showcasing a modern and sophisticated presence that reflects Mitsubishi’s evolving design language. Its wide proportions, muscular stance, and sculpted body surfaces communicate confidence from every angle, while the signature Dynamic Shield fascia reinforces the vehicle’s unmistakable Mitsubishi identity. The bold exterior is further accentuated by sleek full-LED lighting fixtures and striking 20-inch machine-finished and black two-tone alloy wheels, creating an athletic yet elegant appearance.
Beyond aesthetics, every exterior detail has been thoughtfully engineered to enhance both functionality and road presence. The use of steel on prominent body components improves noise and vibration characteristics. This refinement not only enhances craftsmanship and styling quality but also helps reduce unwanted wind and road noise, contributing to a quieter and more premium driving experience. Combined with its refined proportions and bold SUV stance, the Outlander PHEV delivers a premium visual presence that stands out whether navigating urban streets or embarking on long-distance journeys.
Premium comfort & technology
Inside, the Outlander PHEV offers a refined interior, thoughtfully crafted to deliver luxury, comfort, and advanced technology in equal measure. Premium light gray leather-trimmed seats and meticulously finished soft-touch materials create a sophisticated cabin atmosphere that reflects the vehicle’s flagship status. The spacious interior is further elevated by a panoramic sunroof, allowing natural light to fill the cabin and creating an open, lounge-like ambience for every passenger on-board.
The cabin seamlessly integrates modern technology with everyday convenience through a 12.3-inch Smartphone-Link Display Audio (SDA) with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, paired to an immersive 8-speaker Dynamic Sound Yamaha Premium audio system. It is also equipped with Smart Rear View Mirror for an unobstructed view from behind the vehicle, as well as Heads-up Display to show relevant information directly onto the windshield in the driver’s front field of view. Comfort is further enhanced by the triple-zone automatic climate control system and 8-Way Power Adjustable Seats for driver and front passenger with lumbar support, memory functions, as well as heating and ventilation.
The new Outlander PHEV comes with an SRP of PHP 2,848,000, with an introductory price of PHP 2,749,000 from August 20 to September 30.
Customers may choose from three premium exterior colors: White Diamond, Black Diamond, and Red Diamond.
“The all-new Outlander PHEV is MMPC’s new SUV flagship model. It will be available through authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealerships nationwide starting August 20, 2026. We invite you to visit our dealerships to experience our latest electrified flagship SUV and discover The Power of Both Worlds,” said Ritsu Imaeda, President and CEO of MMPC.
