Inside, the plug-in hybrid model gets a new design and material for the seat upholstery, a new four-spoke design steering wheel and is now available with a new brown leather trim as standard on the G Premium Package. Accent stitching is used both in the seats and door trim, as well as on the instrument cluster hood. The center console uses a finish mirroring the elegance of black lacquer used in traditional Japanese craftwork, while black stream patterns as well as shiny accents are used in the dashboard and door trim ornament panels.

The plug-in hybrid system of the Outlander PHEV has received some updates as well. Thanks to optimization and reduction in engine friction, fuel economy has improved by 1.6 km/L to 20.2 km/L (4.95 l/100 km or 47.5 mpg US), measured in the Japanese JC08 drive mode. Additionally, improvements to electric motor efficiency have increased all-electric range by 0.6 km to 60.8 km (37.7 miles).

  1. The Outlander has always been one of my personal favourites being an off-road machine that does not compromise on style too. The new releases are just as sleek as previous models with a personal touch of class. I bet the performance will even be better than before which is greatly needed for a smooth off-road terrain.
