Overall, the vehicle represented 24.7% of the plug-in hybrid segment for the month.
Toby Marshall, Director of Sales and Marketing, Mitsubishi Motors in the UK said “It is very pleasing to see the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV performing well and leading the way for the plug-in hybrids in the UK, especially in a time in which the plug-in hybrid market remains challenging.
The car is on-the-road (OTR) priced from £36 755 and delivers 46 g/km CO2 emissions and an official world harmonised light vehicle test procedure (WLTP) economy figure of 139 mpg. A dedicated commercial version is also available from £25 113.
