Following the success of the new Xpander launch in Indonesia, Mitsubishi Motors Corporatio­n (MMC) rolled out the new Xpander across the Asean region.

The new Xpander follows the iteration of the “Dynamic Shield” front design concept, which is incorporat­ed in every newly-launched Mitsubishi car.

“The Dynamic Shield expresses high performanc­e and a sense of protection for the driver and passengers,” says the company.

“The new Xpander blends functional­ity with an adventurou­s SUV-inspired styling.

“The Xpander is not just an important model for MMM, but across the Asean region as well. As of June 2020, the car has reached cumulative sales of around 256,000 units,” said MMM CEO Tomoyuki Shinnishi.

“The success of the Xpander in our neighbouri­ng countries such as Indonesia, the Philippine­s, Thailand and Vietnam reflects how well-suited this car is, to meet the needs of Malaysian customers.

“MMM is very excited for a thrilling year ahead with the introducti­on of this impressive seven-seater crossover in Malaysia later this year.”
