Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross PHEV [2.4 Plug 188HP] |0-100| POV Test Drive  

At least it looks better than the previous generation, especially the rear end.

May be. But "these things" are reliable, there are physical buttons, no Software, charging station, nor charging tarif nightmares. And thats why I bought mine two weeks ago - and can´t wait to get it delivered (start/mid Jan. 2024). Ah ... forgot: It has traffic indicators. ;-)

No it's not

A bateria estava totalmente carregada antes do teste? Se sim, 5,4 4:52 lts/100kms é elevado.

Based on the foliage I'm guessing May/early June 2022.

That's probably from gasoline engine only.

Could be that you want to keep the battery full before you drive to the center of a city with pollution limitations (one of the reasons to buy a phev). I assume he drives with the engine for testing purposes. To see the charging, to listen for noises, to feel the power etc.

@@janjanssen9629 ah okay, thank you for the information , hadn't considered that.

The petrol engine is based on Atkinson cycle.

@@simotaivalkoski1537 188hp combined... The engine alone makes just 98hp. Absolutely pathetic

@@oxaile4021 - the engine is mainly used for charging and only kicks in when the battery is low or at high speeds (over 130 km/h). And is indeed based on the Atkinson cycle to save gas/petrol.

@@janjanssen9629 My main point was how low 98hp output is for a 2.4 engine, even though it is based on the Atkinson cycle.

@@oxaile4021 - it is BECAUSE of the Atkinson cycle, high efficiency, low CO2. It is a variant on a normal engine, it is therefore NOT a normal benzine engine. It has a longer expansion with a shorter compression. Specifically for the efficiency and therefore absolutely perfect for hybrids.
