Buying the Mitsubishi Motors Outlander PHEV in Australia
- 1Range: the 61 km figure quoted in Australia is on the WLTP test cycle. WLTP is a fair guide; highway running at 110 km/h and outback heat will pull it down 10–20%.
- 2Charging: a 22.7 kWh pack refills overnight on a 7 kW home wallbox; on the road you'll use CCS2 (DC fast) and Type 2 (AC); Chargefox/Evie networks on the highways — this model does 0-80% in 38 min (50kW CHAdeMO DC).
- 3Incentives: The headline benefit is the federal FBT exemption for EVs under the Luxury Car Tax threshold (~A$91k) — biggest national saving for novated-lease buyers. State rebates are patchy and several have ended; check your state/territory.
- 4Climate: Long inter-city distances make DC-charging speed and a bigger battery matter more here than in dense-city markets.
- 5Fit: the Mitsubishi Motors Outlander PHEV is ideal for metro driving; for outback or interstate trips, check the DC fast-charging network first.

What this EV means in Australia — range on the WLTP standard, local incentives, charging, and the things petrol-car switchers ask about most.
Range in Australia
The Mitsubishi Motors Outlander PHEV is rated at 61 km on the WLTP test cycle. WLTP is a fair guide; highway running at 110 km/h and outback heat will pull it down 10–20%.
Charging
Plan around CCS2 (DC fast) and Type 2 (AC); Chargefox/Evie networks on the highways. The 22.7 kWh pack means a home overnight charge covers most weekly driving, with DC fast charging for longer trips.
Incentives & running costs
The headline benefit is the federal FBT exemption for EVs under the Luxury Car Tax threshold (~A$91k) — biggest national saving for novated-lease buyers. State rebates are patchy and several have ended; check your state/territory.
Climate & real-world range
