8. Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
Base MSRP: $48,198
High-voltage battery: 20 kWh
EV range: 61 km
Behind its polarizing looks, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV hides a unique system featuring regenerative braking, DC fast charging capability (38 minutes) and the ability to use the gas engine as a generator to charge the battery in about 1.5 hours. You can’t say that about the Toyota RAV4 Prime. On the flip side, fuel economy is not great once you run out of electrons.
