Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) has revealed the prices of its upcoming 7-seater MPV, the Xpander while also opening the order books from today until April 30, 2018 (the launch will likely be sometime in May 2018).
After taking the Indonesian market by storm, MMPC hopes to replicate that success locally. The Xpander features distinctive styling and features that combine functionality and an adventurous character.
The 2018 Xpander is powered by a 1.5-liter DOHC 16-valve gasoline engine featuring MIVEC technology. This is mated to either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. With 105 horsepower and 141 Nm of torque, Mitsubishi promises punchy and dependable performance.
It also boasts of the best-in-class interior dimensions equating to a spacious cabin for 7 adults.
The Xpander will also come with safety features such as Hill Start Assist (HSA), Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution (RISE) Body, Active Stability Control (ASC), Emergency Stop Signal (ESS), and Anti-Locking Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD).
Produced at Mitsubishi Motors Corp.’s (MMC) new factory in Indonesia, the all-new Xpander will come in 4 variants: GLX MT, GLX Plus AT, GLS AT, and top-of-the-line GLS Sport AT.
The all-new Xpander will be offered in five colors for the GLS Sport and GLS variants: Red Metallic, Titanium Gray Metallic, Sterling Silver Metallic, Quartz White Pearl, and Diamond Black Mica while the GLX Plus will be available in Titanium Gray Metallic, Sterling Silver Metallic, Quartz White Pearl, and Diamond Black Mica and the GLX MT will be available in Titanium Gray Metallic, Sterling Silver Metallic, and Diamond Black Mica .
The 2018 Xpander will come with the following indicative pricing: P 900,000 for the GLX MT; P 990,000 for the GLX Plus AT; P 1,050,000 for the GLS AT; and P 1,100,000 for the GLS Sport AT.

Why charge for reservation? This model will probably be around till this years new born babies finish collage in 2039.
ReplyDeleteI remember when mitsu adventure was released in 1997, same year with my first born whose due to graduate this year... and yes mitsubishi is still selling em.
Nope. It won't. If it's diesel. It probably would
DeleteKulang pa ng isang kulay: Pyrenese Black
ReplyDeleteMay black na kaya, please read. Diamond Black Mica
DeleteTerrible pricing. It's noticeably more expensive than both the Mobilio and Ertiga. Also, a 4 speed automatic for P1M? Ridiculous. I don't know how Mitsubishi can go from releasing something as nice and well priced as the Montero Sport, to this overpriced, 3rd world spec'ed MPV.
ReplyDeleteI agree, medyo mahal nga tong pricing. I would opt for a brv honda or mobilio.
Deletethis is way better than the mobilio or BR-V, those cars are simply elongated Brio on roids. Honda just did a good job covering it.
DeleteAng pangit naman ng brio kumpara xpander. They just stretched thr brio and call it mobilio thrn they raised the mobilio and call it brv. Tamad na yata honda
DeleteIts competitors are Honda BR-V and Toyota Rush, although Xpander is categorized as MPV that's why it is priced like that.
DeleteIf the poverty pack will have a full suite of safety features the same as the range topper, then the price isn't so bad I guess. Think how much cheaper it could have been prior to the TRAIN.
ReplyDeleteLikely no. The GLX may have dual airbags and probably ABS. Expect the ATs to get most of the features.
Delete2018 is the "Battle of the New Crossovers": Mitsubishi Xpander, Toyota Rush, and the new Suzuki Vitara GLX.
ReplyDeleteIf this 1.5L is a diesel and same price range even if a bit more, it would make a killing. It would definitely topple the Innova.
ReplyDeleteMy great grandfather was still alive when 4 speed automatics were good.
ReplyDeleteWhy the hell are people complaining about the price? When Isuzu sells its ancient crosswind for 1.3M, no one bats an eye.
ReplyDelete4 speed A/T hahahaha
ReplyDeleteCvt Naman sana... But 4 speed?1 hahahaha
ReplyDeleteIts probably the same transmission that killed mitsubishi fuzion. That was matted with a 2.4 liter gas. The gear ratio was tall, when you hit about 70-80 km/hr it starts to accelerate in crawl and fuel milage drops significantly.
ReplyDeletei doubt it will beat the innova in this price range considering toyotna este toytoyah oops toyota has both gas and diesel variants that has more omp and good fuel efficiency. well each its own naman..so i guessed we will still see this flying around the metro. I still have our 00 adventure and still good given it's age (good grief) sabi nga nila alaga lang talaga sa maintenance
ReplyDeleteipapasok ba ng toyota yung rush? o avanza na lang pantatapat nila dito?
ReplyDelete4 speed automatic in 2018? WTF!!!
ReplyDeleteOo nga e. Diba CVT ang Mitsu?
DeleteLooks like it's going to be a tough sell for Mitsubishi if they price it like that. That gas engine isn't really as powerful as the BR-V, and it isn't diesel to compete against the Innova. I guess this is meant to compete with the Avanza Veloz, which prioritizes form over everything else. None of them doesn't even look good, anyway. No one wants an underpowered MPV for 1M Pesos.... except for those brave enough to spend 1.3M Pesos on a freaking Crosswind
