Mitsubishi key replacement at a glance
Mitsubishi has a small but loyal U.S. presence, with Outlander anchoring sales and Eclipse Cross/Mirage filling out the lineup per Cox Automotive sales data. The current Outlander (4th gen, 2022+) shares Nissan Rogue platform under Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance. The fleet uses three eras: Mitsubishi-specific 4D61/4D64 (1999-2010), HITAG-2 (2011-2018), HITAG-AES on 2019+ Outlander PHEV.
Typical 2026 pricing runs $175-$400 all-in. A 2014 Outlander 4D64 spare runs $165-$235; a 2024 Outlander SEL FAST KEY all-keys-lost runs $295-$400.
Mitsubishi is locksmith-friendly — no NASTF VSP, no PIN. The 2022+ Outlander on Nissan platform inherits Nissan Intelligent Key BCM-PIN workflow.
Why Mitsubishi keys are different
Mitsubishi's transponder progression: 4D61 (1999+), evolved to 4D64 mid-2000s, migrated to NXP HITAG-2 from 2011. The 2019+ Outlander PHEV moved to HITAG-AES with FAST KEY (Mitsubishi's proximity branding).
The 4th-gen Outlander (2022+) on Nissan Rogue platform uses Nissan Intelligent Key family with BCM-PIN workflow. CarKeyNation routes 4th-gen Outlander jobs to Nissan-capable partners specifically.
Docs via Mitsubishi Tech Info Service. Mitsubishi MUT-III or aftermarket equivalent (G-Scan, Autel IM608) is the standard programming path.

Industry insight
“Mitsubishi is a niche brand in the U.S. but the work is straightforward. The big intake question is which Outlander generation — pre-2022 is Mitsubishi-specific tooling and a HITAG-2 job, post-2022 is essentially a Nissan Rogue job with BCM PIN. We screen for this at intake to route correctly.”
