2023 Mitsubishi Xpander Cross Review: Unparalleled MPV – Perfect – All-encompassing

The Mitsubishi Xpander Cross 2023 has undergone significant changes that have been carefully calculated by the Japanese brand. This 7-seat MPV, priced at 700 million VND, offers consumers a complete update, from its exterior and interior design to its most suitable features and utilities.

Since its debut in 2017, the Mitsubishi Xpander has gone from being relatively unknown to becoming the top-selling model in the market. It has gained popularity not only in Indonesia where it was first introduced but also in 70 other countries and territories worldwide. By 2021, global sales reached 100,000 vehicles per year, accounting for 11.9% of the brand’s total sales and making it one of the top 3 best-selling models of the brand.

In Vietnam alone, the Mitsubishi Xpander has maintained its position as the top-selling model in the MPV segment for 4 years since its launch. Cumulative sales to date have reached over 65,000 units, equivalent to 1,500 units per month. In 2022, it had 4 months with domestic sales exceeding 2,000 units per month and was one of the top 3 best-selling cars of the year. The model also won prestigious awards such as “Car of the Year 2022” in the MPV segment awarded by VnExpress and “Service Car 2022 for drivers” voted by CCA.

All these statistics speak to the popularity and success of the Mitsubishi Xpander in both the Vietnamese and international markets. The question is, what factors contribute to its stable performance and success? The answer lies in the newly launched Xpander Cross 2023 version, which is a formidable competitor with comprehensive strength.

One of the most noticeable changes in the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross 2023 is its updated rugged and angular design. The overall length has increased by 95mm, making it the longest 7-seater MPV in its price range. The new T-Shape full LED lighting system enhances the car’s aesthetics and distinctive features. The redesigned front and rear bumper, fog lamp area, wheel arch cover, and side step cover contribute to the car’s strong and robust appearance. The 17-inch wheels feature a double-spoke design with square lines, adding a modern and rugged feel to the car.

Surprisingly, the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross 2023 is equipped with a 360-degree panoramic camera system, which includes 2 camera lenses attached to both mirrors and 2 other camera lenses attached to the front grille and rear trunk. This leading safety equipment in its segment is a valuable and practical upgrade.

The interior of the Xpander Cross 2023 exudes a premium atmosphere with its Horizontal Axis design language. The use of leather materials in two-tone colors with eye-catching stitching, heat-absorbing seats, and glossy black carbon fiber trim on the dashboard and door trim elevate the interior quality of the car. The steering wheel, instrument cluster, and central screen system have also been upgraded to provide a more luxurious and convenient experience for passengers.

Under the hood, the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross 2023 is powered by a Mivec 1.5L engine combined with a 4-speed automatic transmission, delivering 104 horsepower and 141 Nm of torque. The suspension system has been improved to increase stability and enhance the car’s performance. Moreover, the AYC feature, Active Yaw Control, has been introduced, ensuring the car maintains optimal cornering trajectory and minimizing skidding or accidents.

In conclusion, the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross 2023 is a comprehensive and worthy choice in the MPV segment. It offers spacious 7-seat space, upgraded convenience features, beautiful design, and high-quality finishing. With this upgrade, it has become even better than the previous version, solidifying its position as the top-selling MPV car.
