The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV

The multi-award-winning Outlander PHEV, which is now available with a fabulous £2,500 finance deposit allowance on our 5.9% APR representative**PCP deal,is the nation’s favourite choice of plug-in vehicle, with Mitsubishi having sold more than 21,000 of them in the UK since the SUV’s launch here in 2014.

The vehicle is exempt from vehicle tax plus the London congestion charge and qualifies for the Government’s Plug-in Car Grant and Plug-in Van Grant.

The Mitsubishi Outlander

The Outlander diesel now has an amazing £2,500 finance deposit allowance available on all variants on our fantastic 5.9% APR representative**PCP deal.

Among its many enhancements, the latest Outlander diesel has had 40 noise, vibration and harshness improvements. As well as an improved appearance, which includes new-look LED headlamps and new rear lamps, ride and handling have been made even better, while the cabin interior has increased levels of comfort and safety. It has a five-star Euro-NCAP safety rating, boasts incredible fuel efficiency and low CO₂ emissions, and is lighter, quieter and more refined than ever.

The Mitsubishi L200

With its fantastic all-terrain driving capability matched with superb power and performance, the ultimate pick-up that is the Mitsubishi L200 really is a four-wheeled workmate like no other, and the all-new Series 5 model, which was launched in July 2015 to great acclaim, has a 5.9% APR representative** PCP offer on all variants, with a £2,000 deposit allowance.

The Series 5 was named Best Pick-Up 2015 by judges at Auto Express – the UK’s top automobile weekly – ahead of its UK launch, where it received widespread praise from the motoring press. It was also named Light Commercial Vehicle of the Year and Pick-up of the Year at the 2016 What Van? Awards.

Inheriting the DNA of its predecessors and taking the pick-up concept even further, it’s an entirely new vehicle from the ground up, with significant improvements in 330 areas. The Series 5 is more fuel-efficient than before, with a combined 42.9mpg, and emits just 169g/km of CO₂. It has a turning radius of 5.9m and can carry and tow a combined 4.1 tonnes, outshining similar vehicles from other manufacturers.

Originally launched in 1982, the Shogun brought to the world a whole new breed of vehicle: a 4x4 tough enough to go where others feared to tread yet enjoyed the sort of sophisticated specification more normally associated with top-end saloons. Needless to say, it’s changed and been updated since then, but it’s still a dyed-in-the-wool, no-holds-barred, authentic off-roader, built to outlast the opposition. Seventy per cent of all new Shoguns are bought by former Shogun owners – do you need convincing any further about its merits?

Emissions are just 100g/km CO₂ for the manual and 99g/km for the CVT, which means owners don’t pay any vehicle tax.

All the above offers run from October 14, 2016 to December 28, 2016.There is no cash alternative to the finance deposit contributions.

Anyone buying a new Mitsubishi can also relax in the knowledge that it comes with a fully comprehensive five-year warranty package, showing just how much confidence the manufacturer has in the unrivalled quality and reliability of its vehicles.
