How Long Is a 2026 Mitsubishi RVR Covered by Its Warranty?

Buying a new vehicle comes with plenty of questions, and one of the most common is simple: how long is it covered? For the 2026 Mitsubishi RVR, the answer is longer than many drivers expect. The RVR is backed by a 10-year/160,000 km powertrain limited warranty, a 5-year/100,000 km new vehicle limited warranty and 5-year/unlimited km roadside assistance.

Mitsubishi calls this its 10-5-5 warranty, and it applies to every RVR, from the ES FWD to the GT AWC. Here is a clear, simple breakdown of what each part means and how it works.

The 10-5-5 Warranty at a Glance

10-Year/160,000 km Powertrain Limited Warranty

The powertrain is the heart of your vehicle, and Mitsubishi protects it for 10 years or 160,000 km. That coverage lasts long after the new-car smell fades.

Mitsubishi first introduced its 10-year/160,000 km powertrain warranty in 2004. On the 2026 RVR, it covers every trim, from the 2.0 L 4-cylinder ES FWD and ES AWC to the 2.4 L 4-cylinder SE, SEL, NOIR and GT.

The same 10-year/160,000 km powertrain coverage extends across the Mitsubishi lineup, including the Eclipse Cross, Outlander and Outlander PHEV. For RVR owners, it means the parts that make the vehicle go stay protected well into the second half of its life on the road.

5-Year/100,000 km New Vehicle Limited Warranty

There are thousands of parts in every Mitsubishi, and the new vehicle limited warranty backs just about every one of them for 5 years or 100,000 km.

This is the broad coverage most drivers think of first. It gives you five years of protection on the wide range of parts that make up your RVR, beyond the powertrain components covered by the longer warranty.

5-Year/Unlimited km Roadside Assistance

Roadside assistance comes with no kilometre limit for five years. If you ever need help on the road in Canada or the continental U.S., Mitsubishi Motors Roadside Assistance is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The service includes:

• Free towing
• Battery boosts
• Flat-tire service
• Emergency fuel delivery
• Emergency fluid delivery

On a cold morning when the battery needs a boost, or on a highway trip with a flat tire, that coverage brings real reassurance. Because there is no kilometre cap, it applies just the same to a driver who covers short city trips and one who spends long days on the highway.

How “Whichever Comes First” Works

Each warranty term has two limits: time and distance. Coverage ends when you reach either one, whichever comes first.

Here is a simple example. If you drive your RVR 25,000 km a year, you would reach 100,000 km after four years, so the new vehicle limited warranty would end at that point, before the five-year mark. At the same pace, you would reach the 160,000 km powertrain limit a little over six years in. A driver who covers fewer kilometres each year would keep the full five years and ten years of coverage. Roadside assistance has no kilometre limit, so it lasts the full five years no matter how far you drive.

What the Warranty Does Not Include

Regular maintenance is not included in the warranty. Oil changes, tire rotations and other routine services are the owner’s responsibility, and keeping up with them helps your RVR stay in good shape for the long run.

Full terms, conditions and details are available from your Mitsubishi dealer, who can walk you through exactly how the coverage applies to your vehicle.

Questions Worth Asking at Delivery

When you pick up your new RVR, a few quick questions help you get the most from your coverage:

• When does each warranty term begin?
• What is the recommended maintenance schedule for my trim?
• How do I reach Roadside Assistance if I need it?
• Where should I keep my service records?

Keeping your service records organized makes any future warranty visit simpler. Store receipts in one place, or ask your dealer how they track the service history on your RVR.
