MISSISSAUGA, ON, December 16, 2025 – The latest version of the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV will make its North American debut to the public at the Montreal Auto Show January 16 to 25.

Ahead of the public debut at the Montreal Auto Show, the flagship vehicle in the Mitsubishi Motor Sales of Canada lineup will be unveiled to the automotive press at a private event on Tuesday, Jan. 13 at an historic venue in Old Montreal.

When it arrived in Canada in 2017, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV was the first plug-in hybrid SUV in Canada, and quickly become a favourite among environmentally conscious vehicle buyers looking for an SUV suited for the Canadian lifestyle and backed with the industry’s best warranty. The latest generation of the Outlander PHEV arrived as a 2023 model and won the Automotive Journalists Association of Canada Best Mid-Sized SUV Award.

The mid-cycle refresh will take the 2026 Outlander PHEV to another level with significant enhancements across the vehicle in response to feedback from customers and the media. While more details will be made public at the January debut, the updates will result in better fuel efficiency, increased EV range and better total driving range.
