Only the mode of turning off the engine allows the engine to turn on and off as needed, depending on the condition.
You can also set up a charging mode where you can remove the battery from the gasoline engine, or choose to minimize the power and save it when you reach the crowded city area, it\'s best for you there.
Mitsubishi will not provide the total power generated by the hybrid system.

The fact that the company used its meager resources before joining the alliance to develop a complex and unique car, such as Olander PHEV, is optimistic.
Since Mitsu is one of the world\'s largest automakers, it\'s not clear what it might do.
Chevrolet is expected to add a PHEV version of the Equinox compact SUV in a year or so.
If the new Toyota RAV4, which went public later this year, did not offer the PHEV model, it would be disappointing.
Before that, PHEV, a foreigner, was alone.
