Mitsubishi rolls out all-new Outlander in Australia, PHEV variant to follow early '22

The Mitsubishi Outlander is ready to hit the Outback. 

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) has announced the start of sales for the all-new Outlander crossover SUV in Australia. In addition, the Japanese automaker says that the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) variants of the Mitsubishi Outlander will follow in the first half of 2022.

“The all-new Outlander offers reliable road performance as well as comfortability inside the cabin so that everyone can enjoy driving with peace of mind, regardless of weather or road conditions. In North America, the new Outlander has been in high demand since the start of sales earlier this year and has received excellent reviews such as the Wards 10 Best Interiors for 2021, a first for MMC. Through this new flagship, we would like to strengthen our market presence also in Australia and New Zealand, which are MMC's core markets,” commented MMC Executive Vice President Yoichiro Yatabe.

The all-new Outlander was developed under the product concept “I-Fu-Do-Do,” which means authentic and majestic in Japanese. That said, this model features a robust and powerful styling with the next generation Dynamic Shield front fascia and high-riding 20-inch wheels.

Inside is a refined high-quality cabin complemented by ample third-row seating.

Mitsubishi also updated the Outlander’s safety and security features with a newly developed platform, an upgraded electronically-controlled 4WD, and S-AWC (Super-All Wheel Control) system.
