Mitsubishi Confirms UK Return in 2026 With Outlander PHEV and L200

The brand returns after a four-year exit, targeting a summer 2026 restart with two established nameplates.

Overview

  • Mitsubishi says UK sales will resume in summer 2026, with brand boss Sharon Townsend confirming the Outlander PHEV and L200 as the first arrivals.
  • The new Outlander PHEV pairs a 2.4-litre petrol engine with front and rear electric motors for four-wheel drive, delivers more than 300bhp, and adds a seven-seat option for the first time in the UK.
  • Battery size and range figures for the UK are not yet confirmed, though reports cite a 20kWh pack and a claimed combined range of over 500 miles, with Australian-market data indicating about 52 miles of electric-only driving.
  • The latest L200 features a 2.4-litre bi‑turbo diesel engine, updated interior and tech, a Double Cab body style, full-time four-wheel drive and a centre-locking differential.
  • Pricing and detailed UK specifications will be announced at the beginning of next year, with independent estimates suggesting the Outlander PHEV could sit around £40,000 based on rivals.
