2024 Mitsubishi Outlander Summary

At this point in history, hybrid vehicles are your best bet if you want to feel good about trying to save the world while actually enjoying daily driving duties and avoiding any (real or imagined) driving-range anxiety you may experience in a full EV. 

A hybrid vehicle – i.e. one with a traditional fuel source (petrol or diesel) and electric power – is a cheaper alternative to a full-blown EV and yields better fuel economy and less environmental impact than a standard ICE vehicle (powered only by petrol or diesel). 

And the Plug-in Hybrid EV (PHEV) version of the Outlander offers welcome fuel cost-savings over ICE vehicles and, in top-spec GSR guise, it has a premium look and feel and, on paper, packs plenty of standard features into a sub-$80,000 package.

But how does this seven-seater SUV hybrid handle daily-driving duties?

2021 Haval H6 Summary

There are good surprises and bad surprises. Like the time I was driving my ute and the steering wheel came off. Bad surprise. Or the time the chicken shop accidentally gave me a large chips when I paid for a medium. Good surprise. The Haval H6 also surprised me. And it was up there with a large chips type of surprise.

See, my expectations of Haval have been of a brand which is really big in China where its owned by Great Wall Motors, but can’t keep up with the likes of Toyota and Mazda when it comes to driving and styling. Instead, their strength seemed to be just value-for-money.

Surprise! The new generation H6 isn’t just good value-for-money any more. It’s still really well priced but it has stunning looks, too. But that wasn’t the biggest surprise.

If you are considering a mid-sized SUV such as a Toyota RAV4 or Mazda CX-5, I strongly suggest you widen the net and consider the H6, too. Let me explain.
