Quakertown Mitsubishi - Charging Confidence and All-Weather Control for the Outlander Plug-In Hybrid in Bethlehem, PA
If you’re exploring a plug-in hybrid that makes everyday life easier, two standout strengths of the 2025 Outlander Plug-in Hybrid deserve a deeper look: charging made simple and all-weather control you can trust. For local errands, the electric-only capability allows you to complete many daily drives using battery power alone. When your schedule calls for more miles, the gasoline engine steps in as needed, blending the best of EV and hybrid flexibility. At home, a professionally installed Level 2 charger can replenish the battery to full overnight so your morning starts with maximum electric range. During busy days or weekend trips, DC Fast Charging can bring the battery to approximately 80% in under 40 minutes, minimizing wait time and helping you get back on the move. Taken together, these charging options reduce friction for new EV shoppers and provide seasoned hybrid drivers with a confident, usable routine that fits real life.
Confident control is the other half of the equation. Mitsubishi’s Twin Motor S-AWC (Super All-Wheel Control) works with seven selectable drive modes—Normal, Power, Eco, Tarmac, Gravel, Snow, and Mud—to tailor traction and response to your route and the weather. When the forecast turns, S-AWC helps you feel composed on wet boulevards and slushy side streets across the Lehigh Valley. On clear days, the system supports precise steering and balanced cornering for a naturally calm driving feel. The cabin is equally accommodating, with an intuitive 12.3-inch Full Digital Driver Display and a central touchscreen that supports Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Available MI-PILOT Assist™ adds driver-assistance support in certain scenarios, easing the strain of stop-and-go traffic or longer highway stretches. Add in space for up to seven and a range that covers busy weeks and longer getaways, and the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid presents a smart blend of capability and convenience for families, commuters, and weekend adventurers alike.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How does the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid decide when to use electric vs. hybrid power?
The system prioritizes electric drive in low-demand scenarios like city streets, then blends in gasoline power under heavier acceleration or at sustained highway speeds. It can operate as a series hybrid to help charge the battery or as a parallel hybrid to maximize acceleration and efficiency.
Will cold weather reduce electric range?
Like all EV and PHEV models, very cold temperatures can affect battery performance. Features such as drive mode selection and cabin preconditioning strategies can help maximize efficiency when the weather turns colder.
What driver-assistance technologies are available?
Available MI-PILOT Assist™ can support steering, braking, and acceleration in certain conditions. The Outlander Plug-in Hybrid also offers Forward Collision Mitigation with Pedestrian Detection and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, among other features.
Is the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid suitable for long trips?
Yes. Electric power handles daily errands efficiently, while the gasoline engine extends total range for longer journeys. Combined with DC Fast Charging support and a comfortable, quiet cabin, the SUV is well-suited to road-trip duty.
