Although Mitsubishi's future in Europe is shrouded in doubt, the Japanese brand continues to prepare the launch of the new generation of the Mitsubishi Outlander.
The presentation may be scheduled for the next February 16th, but the truth is that little is known about the new Outlander. In any case, Mitsubishi has already started to “show off” the capabilities of its new model.

The new Outlander has not been spared effort.

It is likely that it can be accompanied by another hybrid (non-plug-in) engine, with e-Power technology, inherited from Nissan.
