Looking at the Mitsubishi Outlander hybrid to replace my Hyundai Santa Fe. I want:
- towing once a month-ish. 3500 lb minimum but 5000 lb would be nice.
- ground clearance. Pot holes on the gravel roads/railroad crossings 8 - 10 inches easy. At 50 - 65 mph.
- normal highway travel without towing, just people moving, electric would be fine. Daily commute to rowk is 30 miles one way, may make it electric-only.
- something that is not twice the price for the hybrid option. Mitsubishi seems to fit, when the Outlander gets to North America this summer/fall
- travel from work -> home -> the lake on fridays 130 miles.

What I *NEED* is perhaps a bit less than what I want

I don't think there are any electric-only options besides a Tesla Model S. A bit out of my price range.
