Outlander PHEV Safety

We’re committed to creating cars you love, and keep you and your loved ones safe on your journey. From intelligent sensors throughout, to a protective body cell, the OutlanderPHEV delivers all around safety.

Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)

Helping you keep a safe distance

Maintains a selected distance between your vehicle and the car ahead via radar for greater safety and peace of mind. It reduces driver stress especially during traffic jams on highways.

Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM)

Safer in the event of a collision

Helps prevent a frontal collision or reduce damage if the collision becomes unavoidable. Responds to vehicles and pedestrians via camera and laser radar.

Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM)

Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

The car will tell you if you drift

This smart feature will create a beep and display a warning on the dash if your vehicle has drifted from its lane and you're not using your indicators.

Automatic High Beam (AHB)

Adjusts the beam for you

To increase safety, comfort and driving ease at night, the high beams automatically switch to low beams when vehicles are detected ahead and automatically switch back to high beams so you don't have to remove your hand from the steering wheel to switch the beams manually.

Blind Spot Warning (BSW)

Say goodbye to blind spots

This excellent safety feature uses radar sensors in the rear bumper to detect vehicles in your rear blind spots, on the right and left sides. An indicator appears in the door mirror when BSW is active and the turn signals are off. When a vehicle is detected while the turn signal is on, an indicator blinks in the corresponding door mirror and a buzzer sounds.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

Reverse with confidence

An indicator appears in the combination meter display when RCTA is active. If radar sensors in the rear bumper detect an approaching vehicle nearby while reverse gear is engaged, a warning message appears in the multi-information display, a buzzer sounds and an indicator blinks in both door mirrors.

Multi Around Monitor

Parking made easy

The views from cameras mounted on the front, rear and sides of the Outlander PHEV (including a bird's-eye view) can be displayed in various combinations to reveal what is in blind spots and help you park more safely.

Ultrasonic Misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS)

No more sudden movement

To help prevent collisions while parking, a buzzer sounds and a warning displays if the front or rear sensors detect a nearby obstacle. Acceleration is also controlled if you suddenly put your foot down by accident.

RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) Body

A cabin with a protective shell

The Outlander PHEV is built using our advanced Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution body. It strategically places reinforcements at critical points to help route and absorb energy in the event of a high impact collision. Collision safety performance is significantly enhanced keeping you and your passengers safer.

Equipment may vary by market. Please consult your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer/distributor for details.

IMPORTANT:

ACC: The detection and control capabilities of ACC are supplemental only. Please drive safely and do not rely solely on this system while driving. ACC may not be activated in some situations. This system may not detect the actual situation depending on the type of vehicle in front and its conditions, the weather conditions and the road conditions. Additionally, the system may be unable to decelerate sufficiently if the vehicle in front applies the brakes suddenly or another vehicle cuts into your path, so your vehicle approaches the front vehicle. If you have any questions, please consult your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer/distributor for details.

FCM: The detection and control capabilities of Forward Collision Mitigation [FCM] are supplemental only and do not prevent collisions in every situation. Please drive safely and do not rely solely on this system while driving. FCM operates when a vehicle is in front of your vehicle. FCM is also designed to detect pedestrians, but may not detect them or be activated in some situations. Auto braking is activated for a car ahead when your vehicle is traveling at a speed of approx. 5km/h to 80km/h and for a pedestrian ahead at approx. 5km/h to 65km/h. Since FCM has no function to maintain braking, the brake is released approximately 2 seconds after stopping. To prevent the vehicle from rolling thereafter, the driver may have to hold the brake pedal down. In some cases, FCM may not function if the driver takes actions for accident avoidance through steering or acceleration operation. If you have any questions, please consult your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer/distributor for details.

LDW: Lane Departure Warning is not designed to lessen risks associated with not looking ahead carefully (attention drawn to something on the side, absentmindedness, etc.) or poor visibility caused by bad weather etc. Keep steering your vehicle correctly and drive safely. The system may not be able to detect the lane correctly in some conditions. Please see the owner’s manual for additional information.

AHB: This system activates at a speed of approx. 40km/h or more and deactivates at lower speeds. Please see the owner’s manual for additional information.

BSW: The detection and control capabilities of the Blind Spot Warning system [BSW] are supplemental only and do not warn you of vehicles in blind spots in every situation. Please do not rely solely on this system while driving. The blind spot monitor may not operate normally in some cases, depending on traffic, weather, road surface conditions and the presence of obstructions. Drivers are fully responsible for their own safe driving. The radar wave graphics are used for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the actual sensor application. Please see the owner’s manual for additional information.

RCTA: Do not rely solely on this system, which may not detect all moving vehicles in certain conditions. Drivers are fully responsible for their own safe driving. The radar wave graphics are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the actual sensor application. Please see the owner’s manual for additional information.

UMS: The detection and control capabilities of the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System [UMS] are supplemental only and do not prevent misacceleration in every situation. Please drive safely and do not rely solely on this system while driving. • To prevent the engine output control provided by UMS from causing an impediment during normal driving in rough-road driving conditions, the system automatically de-activates and indicates UMS OFF in the meter cluster when the FCM function is OFF or the ASC function is OFF. • No function completely stops the vehicle via the automatic braking. The vehicle creeps forward even when engine output is regulated. • The sensing system may not work for netlike and sharp-edged obstructions that do not sufficiently reflect ultrasonic sound. • UMS does not include a function which keeps the vehicle stationary. The driver is responsible for stopping the vehicle by pressing the brake pedal as required by the driving conditions. •The ultrasonic sensor wave graphics are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the actual sensor application. Please see the owner’s manual for additional information.
