2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Interior

The 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV makes a strong case on efficiency and capability, but spend a few minutes inside one, and it becomes clear that the interior is just as much a part of the story. With seating for seven, 362 litres of cargo space, a maximum of 1,059 millilitres of legroom, and convenience features that punch above the Outlander PHEV's price point at $49,998, this is a plug-in hybrid SUV that delivers on comfort. Here's a closer look at what's inside, from the team at Metrotown Mitsubishi in Burnaby, BC.

2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Seating & Passenger Space

All three Outlander PHEV trims seat up to seven passengers across three rows — a meaningful advantage over most plug-in hybrid competitors that offer only five seats. The second row features a 40/20/40 split-folding sliding bench, giving you the flexibility to prioritize either cargo space or passenger room depending on what the day calls for. The third row folds flat when not in use, opening up the cargo area for larger loads.

Interior dimensions are consistent across all trims:

Measurement Front Row Second Row Third Row
Headroom 1,031 mm (ES) / 984 mm (SE/LE) 993 mm (ES) / 951 mm (SE/LE) 841 mm
Legroom 1,059 mm 955 mm 475 mm

The third row is best suited for children or occasional adult use. The 475 millimetres of legroom is snug for taller passengers on longer trips. The first and second rows are comfortable, with the front row offering over a metre of legroom across all trims.

A cargo cover comes standard across all trims to keep your belongings out of sight.

2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Seating Comfort & Adjustability

Every Outlander PHEV trim comes standard with 8-way power-adjustable front seats. This means it has sliding, reclining, height-adjustable, tilt, and lumbar support. It gives both driver and passenger a wide range of positioning options. Heated front seats are also standard across the lineup, a particularly welcome feature for BC drivers navigating cool mornings throughout much of the year.

Seating materials step up across the trim levels. The ES and SE come with fabric seating, while the LE upgrades to a microsuede and synthetic leather combination that gives the cabin a noticeably more premium feel. The LE also adds heated second-row seats, so rear passengers aren't left out on cold mornings.

2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Infotainment & Technology

The Outlander PHEV's technology package is consistent and well-equipped across all trims:

  • 12.3-inch Smartphone Link Display Audio: The Outlander PHEV has a large, responsive touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility that comes standard on every trim. This means you don’t have to struggle with cables or adapters. You can simply connect your phone and go.
  • 12.3-inch Full Digital Driver Display: A fully digital instrument cluster comes standard across the lineup, replacing analogue gauges with a configurable digital display that shows driving data, navigation, and PHEV system information clearly.
  • Yamaha Premium Audio with 8 Speakers: The ES and SE trims come with Yamaha's Premium audio system, delivering noticeably better sound quality than most base audio systems in this segment.

2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Convenience Features

A few everyday convenience features stand out across the Outlander PHEV lineup:

  • Hands-Free Power Liftgate with Adjustable Height: As standard on SE and LE, this feature lets you open the liftgate with a foot motion when your hands are full. It’s particularly useful in busy parking lots or when loading groceries. The adjustable height setting is a thoughtful touch for drivers with lower garage clearances.
  • FAST-Key Keyless Entry: Also standard on SE and LE, this allows you to lock, unlock, and start the vehicle without taking your key out of your pocket or bag.
  • Electric Parking Brake with Auto Hold: Auto Hold keeps the vehicle stationary at a stop without requiring you to keep your foot on the brake, which is a small but welcome feature in stop-and-go traffic.
  • 1,500-Watt Power Supply: This onboard outlet lets you power devices, tools, or appliances directly from the vehicle. It’ll be useful at campsites, job sites, or anywhere a power source isn't handy.
  • Heated Steering Wheel: This keeps your hands warm during those awful Canadian winters.
