Real World Electric EV range of my Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4 PHEV

Real World Electric EV range of my Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4 PHEV Plug In Hybrid Before anyone says it, let me say it first. This may be the most anal video you will watch. But having driven an Outlander PHEV Plug In Hybrid for the past 4 years, I got offered the "deal of a lifetime" to upgrade. The latest model has a 2.4 litre petrol engine and increase battery capacity. The electrical range you can get from the batteries depends on the ambient heat (the warmer the wether the more efficient are the batteries), your driving style, the engine settings - ie setting to "Eco" and "EV" and use of the regenerative paddles. Sounds complicated? Not when you get used to it and you realise you are saving £££ or $$$ ! For information, this video was produced in the UK. So on my 2016 PHEV i would get an EV / Electric driving range of about 18miles in the winter and 23/24 miles in the summer. The new Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4 PHEV promised marginally better so lets see! If you don't have the patience to watch, in short I did get an improved EV range and, interestingly, albeit with a bigger engine, higher MPG. Mitsubishi's claims of 140mpg ish are very confusing. If you do a 35 mile trip and most of it is on Electric your MPG (remember I am talking UK Imperial Gallons here) may show 750MPG ! If you do a 100 mile trip, using all your electric and then regenerating from the engine so maybe 50% of the drive was on electric, you may show 70MPG, hypothetically. Finally if you drive aggressively, don't bother to regenerate, don't bother to use "Eco" mode and switch on the more responsive "Sport" mode your economy will, of course suffer. And for those who can't be bothered to charge the batteries at all.....you will have to visit the fuel pump more often that you might expect because its fuel tank is smaller (45 litres) to compensate for the battery pack.
