Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Named 2023 ‘Latin Flavor’ SUV of the Year

The all-new 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV was named ‘SUV of the Year with a Latin Flavor’ by Puros Autos in the publication’s “2023 Car of the Year with a Latin Flavor” awards on the heels of Outlander’s win last year.

As the internal-combustion-engined 2022 Outlander was awarded the title last year, this marks the second year in a row Mitsubishi has been named SUV of the Year by the publication.

According to Puros Autos, Hispanic customers purchase one out of every four cars sold in the United States, and the Hispanic market share is outpacing the overall market by almost three-to-one.  Additionally, Mitsubishi Motors has a higher percentage of Hispanic buyers than any other company1.

“We are honored to receive the coveted 2023 Car of the Year with a Latin Flavor award for the SUV category from Puros Autos for the second year in a row,” said Mark Chaffin, Mitsubishi Motors North America (MMNA) President and CEO. “With room for the whole family across three rows of seats, electric motoring for up to 38 miles with the added convenience of a gasoline engine, and a bold style that sets it apart from anything else on the road, the Outlander PHEV is the flagship of Mitsubishi Motors.”

The Outlander PHEV is the world’s best-selling plug-in hybrid SUV2, and the all-new 2023 Outlander PHEV combines everything that has made the gasoline-powered 2022 Outlander so successful: bold styling, advanced vehicle architecture, award-winning3 interior, seven-passenger convenience and legendary Mitsubishi SUV capability.

“The 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV should be at the top of your list, if you’re one of the rare drivers seeking more thrills from a fairly efficient SUV,” said Puros Autos Editor Enrique Kogan.
