The Mitsubishi Xpander has seen a recent overhaul that injects some new life into the platform. Purchase of the brand’s practical city cruiser will avail the buyer of some hard-to-miss deals and opportunities. Here are some details regarding the car as well as awesome prizes that are in store for those looking to get a Mitsubishi Xpander in the Philippines. Of course, we’ll include price as well.
Changes for the 2022 model year Mitsubishi Xpander aren’t minor at all. Dimensions are increased by 75mm at the front and 45mm at the rear, while the ride height sees a significant increase of up to 20mm depending on the variant. All the exterior lights have been revamped, while the interior sees a bevy of new panels that have user comfort and design in mind.
This improvement is based off the ergonomic user habits of first-generation Xpander owners. More technology is also installed such as an increased number of ports for charging. The famous Dynamic Shield design of the front grille has been improved to give the MPV increased road presence and to bring the design some modernity.
The engine is still the same rated at 105 horsepower, but the dated 4-speed automatic transmission has been replaced with a more civilized CVT. This should make traversing city streets much easier and fuel consumption should also be improved by quite a margin. The suspension is also reworked and retuned in order to provide more comfort to all passengers.
Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) President and CEO Takeshi Hara stated that “The Xpander offers a ton of features that makes it easy to love, which is why it has won the hearts of many and is the leader in its category here in the country and globally. It is not your typical 7-seater MPV, rather one that inspires an adventurous spirit. Mitsubishi Motors has always purposefully designed it to have an advanced SUV-like styling while still staying true to its roots as a utilitarian. Expect us to uphold this pioneering heritage alongside a handful of refinements that will perfectly suit the multi-faceted lifestyles of Filipino families.”
