Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Rental in Iceland: Great for Families and Fuel-Efficient Travel

The Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid rental in Iceland is one of the newest additions to our fleet, offering an electric range of around 45 km (28 miles) for city driving or short trips like airport transfers. For longer journeys, its efficient petrol engine provides excellent fuel economy and a combined range of over 640 km, making it a great option for exploring the Ring Road. With advanced safety systems and modern technology, the Outlander ensures a smooth and confident drive in Iceland’s changing road and weather conditions.

To rent the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, drivers must be at least 23 years old, hold a valid license for one year, and present a credit card in the renter’s name. An International Driving Permit (IDP) is required if the license is not in Roman script. This hybrid SUV offers space, efficiency, and reliability for families or small groups, but it is not allowed on highland F-roads. It is, however, permitted on routes 35 and 550, making it a versatile and eco-friendly choice for Iceland’s main attractions.

⚠️ Heads-up: Charging cable is not included by default. Add it during booking if you plan to plug in along your trip.

FAQ

  • Where can I charge the Hybrid Mitsubishi Outlander whilst travelling in Iceland?

    You can charge a hybrid car in Iceland at a wide network of charging stations located in Reykjavík, major towns, and along popular routes like the Golden Circle and Ring Road. Most fuel stations, supermarkets, and hotels now provide charging points, and dedicated providers such as ON, Ísorka, and N1 operate fast and regular chargers across the country. Apps and maps from these networks make it easy to plan stops, and with Iceland’s growing focus on sustainable travel, finding a spot to top up your hybrid battery while exploring is straightforward and convenient.

  • Can I drive the Hybrid Mitsubishi Outlander on F-roads?

    Unfortunately not. The Hybrid Mitsubishi Outlander is not allowed on F-roads. This is due to the battery placement on the underside of the car. If you’re looking for a 4×4 Hybrid car that is allowed on F-roads then consider the New Hybrid Land Rover Defender.

  • What months in Iceland do I need a 4×4?

    You need a 4×4 in Iceland mainly from October to April for safe winter driving, but it’s also required in summer if you plan to explore highland F-roads.
