Mitsubishi Charger

Mitsubishi has established a solid presence in the electric vehicle (EV) market, particularly with its Outlander PHEV, one of the best-selling plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) globally. The brand focuses on offering practical, eco-friendly options with a strong emphasis on versatility, combining electric power with hybrid capabilities for extended range.
Mitsubishi is expanding its EV lineup, with plans to introduce more fully electric models, supported by the company’s commitment to sustainable mobility. While not as dominant in the EV market as some other brands, Mitsubishi is positioned as a reliable choice, particularly for those seeking affordable and efficient hybrid and full electric solutions.
Mitsubishi EV models are primarily designed for Level 2 EV chargers, offering the fastest home charging option. An important advantage of Mitsubishi’s EV lineup is that both models support DC fast charging, which is especially beneficial given the larger battery sizes of these vehicles.
