- The next Mitsubishi Outlander will not share a platform with Nissan.
- Instead, Mitsubishi designers will examine a modified internal platform for the refreshment of 2027.
Nissan’s apparent misfortunes with his finances is not the only bad thing that is preparing in the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance. Only a few weeks after Honda and Nissan announced that they were banning their merger plan, a new report suggests that Mitsubishi does not want the next Outlander to share a platform with Nissan.
The current Mitsubishi Outlander generation shares its bones with the Nissan Rogue, which in turn rises on a Renault-Nissan platform known by the family name of the common modules. When it was announced for the first time that Outlander would be built on the CMF platform, the leaders presented it while Mitsubishi taking advantage of the advantages of the Alliance while maintaining the unique identity of the brand.

However, after a single generation, it seems that all sharing is coming to an end. Automobile news reports that Mitsubishi plans to use a modified internal platform for the next Outlander. While the company refused to comment, the report comes from months after Nissan sold part of his participation in Mitsubishi in November in order to improve his record.
What is the following for Mitsubishi?
In the United States, Mitsubishi was obstinate by dull sales and dealers are increasingly frustrated by the apparent lack of action of the company. The rise in costs, an aging range and the death of one of the most popular offers of the company in the Mirage, made life difficult for those who represent the brand.

While Outlander has undergone a slight refreshment, Mitsubishi wishes to extend the signage plate before a complete overhaul in 2027. A light hybrid variant should join the Ice and Phev versions in the United States, while a more adventure model on the balance sheet nicknamed the “Outlander Trail Edition” should be presented this year later.
But it seems that the three diamonds are planning to distance themselves from Nissan. Recently, after having failed to find a follow in Honda, the CEO of Nissan said that the company’s survival was at stake. Rumors continue to swirl on the future of the brand, with a link with the Taiwanese electronics manufacturer Foxconn considered the next possible option for the company in difficulty.
