Mitsubishi Teases Two New Renault-Based SUVs, Will Launch In Europe In 2025

  • Mitsubishi will launch two new compact SUVs in Europe in 2025, with the help of Renault.
  • One of them will be a twin to the Renault Symbioz, offering gasoline and hybrid options.
  • The other will be fully electric, sharing its underpinnings with the Renault Scenic E-Tech.

Mitsubishi will soon expand its European lineup with two new compact SUVs, set to be locally manufactured by Groupe Renault. One will be an EV and the other an ICE/HEV model, and both will launch in 2025.

The company published a single teaser, with the two SUVs under a veil, next to Mitsubishi’s existing European lineup. The model on the left is most likely the Mitsubishi equivalent of the Renault Symbioz, which is heavily based on the Mitsubishi ASX and Renault Captur subcompact SUV twins. This is evident from the identical lighting signature and the slightly longer body.

Mitsubishi’s new SUV will be available with gasoline, and self-charging hybrid powertrain options. Just like the Renault Symbioz, it will ride on the CMF-B architecture and is expected to measure 4,413 mm (173.7 inches) long.

The other upcoming SUV was originally announced in December 2023 as the first fully electric Mitsubishi following the i-MiEV from 2010. This one will be based on the Renault Scenic E-Tech, which shares the CMF-EV architecture with the Megane E-Tech, the Nissan Ariya, and the Alpine A390.

The Mitsubishi brother of the Renault Scenic E-Tech will feature a slightly tweaked exterior design, with unique LED graphics up front. Options will likely include 60 kWh and 87 kWh battery packs, alongside single-motor 168 hp (125 kW / 170 PS) and dual-motor 215 hp (160 kW / 218 PS) powertrains.

The automaker revealed that its upcoming compact SUVs will be equipped with plenty of ADAS. They will also feature a Google built-in infotainment, likely mirroring Renault’s OpenR system.

As hinted at by the official teaser, the new Mitsubishi models will sit above the subcompact Clio-based Colt and Captur-based ASX, and below the Outlander PHEV. The latter was recently introduced in Europe with a more efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain and a bigger battery, allowing a combined range of 844 km (524 miles).
