Out of all of this, a…
The Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid is getting pretty old. Having spent many years overseas before being added to the North American lineup in 2017 for the 2018 model year, we think the Japanese automaker needs to offer a little more variety in terms of going green. Still, consumers across America are still wary about converting…
When consumers think about Mitsubishi Motors, an SUV comes to mind. The plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) Outlander may be the highlight of the lineup, but for going off-road in a smaller package, the Outlander Sport is the “sporty” version of the Outlander SUV. Minimal changes have been made to this already award-winning package for…
The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) that meets many of today’s standards.

Returning for 2025, the Outlander PHEV comes…
Software-defined vehicles (SDVs) will soon be the new kind of automobile consumers will be seeing on the roads.

When Mitsubishi Motors announced the “Momentum 2030” business plan for North America, it was pretty exciting. Finally, the North American lineup is getting some love.

This year has felt like it’s going by much slower than past years. Lots of things are happening. Things are coming and going. Like the Mitsubishi Mirage.

With the end of the Mitsubishi Mirage announced in 2023, sales for Mitsubishi Motors have seen a spike for the little hatchback.

In early 2024, there was a lot of projection insight data showing that the average American consumer is not interested in electrified vehicles.

It may be surprising, but Mitsubishi Motors isn’t a brand that specializes only in SUVs. Especially after the Mitsubishi Mirage was discontinued, this may be hard to believe.

Mitsubishi Motors may be known as an automaker for mostly SUVs, but there have been times when the automaker surprised consumers and the auto industry.

Mitsubishi Motors models are known for their reliability and long-living powertrain. Thanks to the Mitsubishi Motors basic limited warranty for 5 years/60,000 miles, a powertrain limited warranty for 10 years/100,000 miles, many of their vehicles can keep on going for years and years. Even vehicles we no longer see in the states have been known…
“And we have lift off!” At least, that’s what we think the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance should be saying after announcing its plans for the new Ampere battery-electric vehicle (BEV) facility. Initially announced in 2022, Ampere was a proposal by Renault to build a new facility to handle production of BEVs and other electrified options and take…
The auto industry is currently going through a dramatic shift towards battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) and other electrified concepts.

The midsize truck market is the category for automakers all over to cash in on. With only one or two models to speak of currently making up this part of the industry, it would be a shame if Mitsubishi Motors didn’t also introduce its own pickup truck to the U.S. market. The Mitsubishi Triton is…
Not all cars are built equal. Some are made for performance, some for lifestyle, and others place a focus on safety.

Every major automaker in the world is making the shift to battery-electric vehicles (BEVs), and some are being a little dramatic.

With so many automobiles available in the market, consumers have a lot to choose from.

Safety has become an increasingly important factor when it comes to designing and producing today’s automobiles.
