The refresh of the 2025 Outlander gas version has really caught my eye, especially the interior. So much better than what Toyota and Honda offers IMHO, and the Yamaha sound system and massaging seats bring even more value.

I looked hard at the Rav4 Prime and really like Toyota's hybrid drivetrain, but its cheap interior and cramped interior space (especially the uncomfortable driver's seat and wide center console hitting my right leg/knee) I just can't get over.

Hearing as how the newly updated 2025 PHEV in Australia has a larger battery, I assume the US 2026 Outlander PHEV will get all the new interior updates and the larger battery. Has anyone heard or read news when the 2026 PHEV will be released in the US? Perhaps during summer or in the fall?

I would say, until we see the 2026 PHEV announced on the Mitsubishi webpage, there is no reason to get too excited :).

I have had a 2024 RAV4 Prime SE for 7 months now, and I do not find its interior objectionable. Maybe my expectations are not all that high. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to familiarize myself with the Outlander as well.
