Plug-in Hybrid EV SystemE00203500025Main features
E00203600039
It is operated as an electric vehicle in the EVdrive mode using the electrical power stored
in the drive battery, *1
according to the re-
maining amount of the drive battery. It is also
automatic control *2
for driving in series hy-
brid mode or parallel hybrid mode using en-
gine power from EV drive mode according to the driving condition or if the charging level
of the drive battery is decreased.
l With the high performance motor, noise
and vibration during driving are greatlylimited and powerful acceleration can al-
so be obtained.
l With the regenerative brake, the drive
battery is automatically charged when
the accelerator is released.
*1 If there is a remaining amount in the drive
battery, it is actively driven in the EV
drive mode. The cruising range varies de-
pending on the remaining charge in the drive battery, vehicle speed, and air condi- tioner operating conditions.
*2 You can adjust the timing to switch to the
EV drive mode by using the battery save
switch. Refer to “Battery save switch” on
page 7-21.l The vehicle can be charged from EV
charge power outlets (rated AC 220-240 V).
l Quick charging using CHAdeMO quick
charger (if so equipped) is available.
CHAdeMO is a quick charging standard
for electric vehicles that is promoted by
Japan for adoption as an international
standard.
EV drive mode
l The vehicle is driven by the motors us-
ing only electrical power stored in the drive battery. However, EV drive mode is cancelled depending on the drive bat-
tery level, vehicle speed, and air condi-
tioner operating conditions. Pay atten- tion to the following points: • Check the EV cruising range in the in-
formation screen. Refer to “EV cruis-
ing range display/Total cruising range display” on page 6-14.
• Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds
avoiding quick acceleration/decelera- tion. Repeated quick acceleration/deceleration causes the drive battery
level to decrease quickly, which ex- tremely reduces the EV cruising
range.
Series hybrid mode
l The vehicle is driven by the motors us-
ing only the electricity generated by the
engine. This mode is used when the drive battery level is low, at quick accel-
eration, or when power is required like climbing uphill.
Parallel hybrid mode
l The vehicle is driven by the power of the
engine, assisted by motors. This mode is used during high-speed driving with bet-ter engine efficiency.

Regenerative braking
Motion energy is converted into electric ener-
gy using the motor as a power generator.
Then a braking force generates and converted electric energy will be charged to the drive
battery.
l If you lift your foot off the accelerator
pedal during driving, a braking force that
is equivalent to engine braking of a com- bustion engine vehicle will be generated.
Also, if you shift the select position into “B” (BRAKE) from “D” (DRIVE), ef-
fectiveness of the regenerative braking is getting stronger. Shift the selector lever into “B” (BRAKE) position according to
the driving condition.
l Regenerative brake force increases with
the foot brake force when the brake ped-
al is depressed.
l If a problem occurs in the Plug-in hybrid
EV system, or if the ABS and/or the ASC have been activated, the regenera-
tive braking will be restricted. The foot brake will still operate.Operation of gasoline engine
E00203700030
l Even when the vehicle is driving in EV
drive mode, it may be automatically
changed to series hybrid mode or paral-
lel hybrid mode in the following cases: • The plug-in hybrid EV system is too
hot or too cold.
• Quick acceleration is applied.
• The air conditioner is operating.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed
hard on an uphill road or expressway.
• In cold weather
• The vehicle has not been refueled for
a long time.
• The drive battery level is low.
In addition to the above, there are more
cases where EV drive mode is automati-
cally changed to series or parallel hybrid mode.
l Even while the vehicle is stopped, the
engine may automatically be started in the following cases: • The drive battery level is low.
• The plug-in hybrid EV system is too
hot or too cold.
• The air conditioner is used.
• The vehicle has not been used for a
long time.
• The engine has not been operated for a long time.Refueling (gasoline)
E00203800028
l If the warning display appears, refuel as
soon as possible.
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the engine will not start even in a situation need to be generated electricity, the following
conditions will occur. • The driving performance falls (since
only the electrical power stored in the drive battery can be used for the driv-
ing).
• The heating performance cannot be
available (except vehicles with elec-
tric heater).
• The effectiveness of the heater is in-
sufficient (vehicles with electric heat-er).
• The catalytic converter may be dam-
aged due to excessive high tempera- ture.
Refer to “Filling the fuel tank” on page 2-12.
Refer to “Fuel remaining display screen” on page 6-10.

CAUTIONlDepending on the operating conditions of
your vehicle, the fuel in the fuel tank may
not be used for a long time and stay in the tank, resulting in deterioration of the fuel
quality. As this may affect the engine and fuel system parts, observe the following in-
structions:
• Run the engine by pressing the battery
charge switch at least once in 3 months.
Refer to “Battery charge switch” on page 7-22.
• Refuel 20 litres or more of fuel every 6
months (to make the total refueling amount in 6 months be 20 litres or more).
l If refueling of the above amount is not possi-
ble due to a high fuel level because the vehi-
cle has not been used for a long time or for
some other reason, consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Drive battery

WARNINGl A sealed lithium ion high voltage battery
is adopted for Outlander PHEV. If the
drive battery is disposed of improperly, there is a risk of severe burns and electri-
cal shock that may result in serious injury
or death and there is also a risk of envi- ronmental damage.WARNINGl Never attempt to use the drive battery for
any other purpose.
l It is the battery to operate the motor and
the air conditioning.
In addition to the drive battery, Outland-
er PHEV has the auxiliary battery to op-
erate lamps, wipers, etc.
l Compact, light-weight lithium ion bat-
tery with high energy density is used forthe drive battery.
l The drive battery has the following char-
acteristics.
Please read this carefully paying atten- tion to the following:
Characteristics
l The same as ordinary lithium-ion batter-
ies, the battery capacity of the drive bat-
tery gradually reduces with time, result- ing in reduced cruising range. Depend-
ing on the usage conditions, such as fre- quent quick acceleration/deceleration, repeated frequent use of the quick charg-
er, extremely hot weather, storing the vehicle in high ambient temperatures, etc., the rate of battery capacity drop willincrease.
l The performance may be changed due to
the outside temperature.
At low temperature, in particular, the EV cruising range is short and the charging
time is long, compared to operation at normal temperature.
l The battery is gradually discharged with-
out use and the battery charge is low- ered.
l It is not necessary to consume the bat-
tery completely before charging.
Precautions for operation
l If your vehicle is not used for a long
time, check the drive battery level dis- play every 3 months.
If the drive battery level display shows
0, charge the battery until some indica-
tion appears. Alternately, put the opera- tion mode of the power switch in “ON”to start the engine automatically, wait for
the engine to stop automatically, then
put the operation mode of the power
switch in “OFF”.
