Mitsubishi Motors in the UK recently expanded its plug-in hybrid commercial vehicle range with the addition of a new, high-specification Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Reflex Plus Commercial, which adds 18-inch alloy wheels, an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system with smartphone connectivity (including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility) and a reversing camera to the well-equipped, entry-level 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander Commercial PHEV Reflex.

All Outlander PHEV Commercial vehicles are equipped with advanced four-wheel-drive, a rear spoiler, automatic headlamps, rain-sensing wipers, heated front seats, DAB radio, keyless operation and dual-zone climate control (which can be programmed to warm or cool the van in advance of a journey) and a full load bay bulkhead. It also offers a flat load area measuring 1.65m in length and 1.00m in width between the wheel arches with a maximum payload of 500kg.

The entry-level Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Commercial Reflex is priced from £24,699 CV OTR*.

Thanks to its low emissions (NEDC 40g/km, WLTP 46g/km) the Outlander PHEV is also permitted to make deliveries in ULEV zones while also offering the ability to cover longer distances non-stop when required (372+ miles total range, 139.7mpg WLTP).
