Mitsubishi’s Outlander SUV PHEV was the best selling plug-in hybrid electric vehicle in Europe in 2014, posting 19,980 units, or 52% of all 38,617 Outlander models sold into that market. Top selling national markets for the Outlander PHEV in 2014 were:
- The Netherlands: 7,666 units
- The UK: 5,370 units
- Sweden: 2,289 units
- Norway: 1,485 units
- Germany: 1,060 units
Presumably the version for the States, although at some stage Mitsubishi are going to do the big brother of the Outlander in PHEV form, as well as the smaller ASX.
Their only limit appears to be ramping battery capacity, as they like to use their own.
Go Mitsubishi!
