"The Outlander Plug-in Hybrid is an ideal choice for families desiring a versatile vehicle that speaks to electrification and decreased carbon emissions, without requiring sacrifices in capabilities or driving range," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and GreenCarJournal.com. "This plug-in hybrid's 38-mile battery electric range meets the driving needs of a great many families who wish to drive zero-emission every day, with longer journeys accommodated by its overall 420-mile range as a hybrid."

Green Car Journal's Family Green Car of the Year Award recognizes vehicles that excel in environmental performance while offering style and versatility. The Outlander Plug-in Hybrid's winning combination of advanced plug-in hybrid technology, Mitsubishi's Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system³, and the convenience of a spacious, all-weather family vehicle have made it an unstoppable force in the competition.
