Mitsubishi to Launch 300-Mile EV in 2026

Mitsubishi plans to launch a new electric vehicle in the U.S. and Canada in summer 2026, based on the next-generation Nissan Leaf and built on the CMF-EV platform, with a targeted range of up to 300 miles. This marks Mitsubishi's first all-electric model in North America since the i-MiEV. The vehicle will likely include a Tesla-style NACS charging port, giving access to the Supercharger network. As part of its Momentum 2030 strategy, Mitsubishi aims to introduce a new or significantly updated model each year through 2030, offering a mix of gasoline, hybrid, and electric vehicles. The company reported an 11% year-over-year sales increase in Q1 2025, led by the Outlander, and is considering domestic manufacturing to avoid tariffs. Further collaboration with Nissan is planned to strengthen both brands' electrified vehicle offerings in North America.
