The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV maintains top sales position

The Mitsubishi Outlander Phev is once again the UK’s best-selling plug-in hybrid vehicle. With sales of 476 cars April and 2,695 from January to April 2018 takes the Outlander ahead of every other pure EV and plug-in hybrid on the market.

The Mitsubishi Outlander Phev was the first plug-in car to gain widespread adoption with UK drivers when it was launched in 2014, taking the plug-in hybrid market from fewer than 1,500 units to more than 13,000 within a year. Since then it has consistently been the most popular plug-in hybrid in the UK with more than 36,800 currently on the road.

The Outlander was launched back in 2014

The popularity of the Outlander PHEV has helped Mitsubishi Motors to a successful start to the year so far. While car registrations in the UK from January to April 2018 were down 8.8%, Mitsubishi Motors’ sales were up 12.1%.

Rob Lindley, Managing Director of Mitsubishi Motors in the UK, commented:

“Despite ever more competition entering the market, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV continues to win more and more customers over thanks to its no-compromise, SUV versatility and low real-world running costs.”

The SUV versatility and low company car tax has certainly help drive up sales, as does the and exemption from the London congestion charge – something all plug-in vehicles benefit from.
