LaFontaine Mitsubishi Lansing – How Long Does It Take To Charge a 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-In Hybrid near Okemos, MI?
Charging time is one of the most important questions for shoppers exploring a plug-in hybrid SUV for daily commuting and weekend travel. The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-In Hybrid makes the answer simple with flexible home and public charging solutions that fit your routine—whether you plug in overnight or top up while running errands.
At the core is a 20.0 kWh lithium-ion drive battery that enables up to 38 miles of all-electric range on a full charge. For many drivers, that covers most weekday driving without using gasoline. When it’s time to go farther, the Outlander PHEV seamlessly switches to hybrid mode, delivering up to 420 miles of total range with the help of the refined 2.4L MIVEC DOHC 4-cylinder and dual electric motors. Add Twin Motor S-AWC (Super All-Wheel Control) and seven selectable drive modes, and you have a confident, year-round companion that’s ready for Michigan roads—rain, snow, or sun.
Home charging is where convenience shines. With a professionally installed Level 2 charger, you can replenish the battery to 100% capacity overnight, so you wake up ready to drive on electric power. If you need to charge during a busy day, the Outlander PHEV supports DC fast charging, bringing the battery to approximately 80% in about 38 minutes at a compatible station. That’s a practical window for coffee, errands, or a quick grocery run.
- Level 1 at-home charging uses a standard outlet and is best for topping up when you have more time
- Level 2 at-home charging is the sweet spot for daily use, typically filling the battery overnight
- DC fast charging on the go can deliver about 80% in roughly 38 minutes
Public charging networks continue to expand across Michigan, and the Outlander PHEV’s fast-charge capability means you can confidently plan trips without long waits. In everyday life, many owners find that charging at home covers most weekly driving, and quick public top-ups handle the rest.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I install a Level 2 charger at home?
Yes. For most households, a professionally installed Level 2 charger offers the best mix of speed and convenience. It enables full overnight charging so you start each day with maximum electric range.
How does DC fast charging work on road trips?
Stop at a compatible DC fast charger and you can bring the battery to approximately 80% in about 38 minutes. Many drivers plan a short break—stretch, snack, restroom—while the Outlander PHEV charges.
Will cold weather affect charging or range?
All EVs and PHEVs experience some range variation in extreme temperatures. Pre-conditioning while plugged in and using seat heaters can help conserve battery energy in winter.
