In the Vietnamese market, Mitsubishi XForce is expected to be available in 3 or 4 variants, with the highest-end version being equipped with an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) package.
Mitsubishi XForce is the commercial version of the XFC Concept, developed based on the demand for small-sized SUV/CUV models in the Southeast Asia region. XForce was introduced in Indonesia in August.
According to recent information received from dealers, Mitsubishi XForce is expected to be introduced to Vietnamese consumers at the end of December or the beginning of January 2024, before the Lunar New Year. The car is imported from Indonesia and the first commercial batch is expected to be delivered to customers after the Lunar New Year.
Currently, XForce is accepting deposits in Vietnam with attractive incentives (from September 1st to November 30th this year, with free maintenance for 2 years or 40,000 km depending on the conditions, along with 1,000 loyalty points on the Mitsubishi Connect+ app).
In Vietnam, XForce is expected to be available in 3 or 4 variants with prices ranging from 650-750 million VND. When it enters the market, Mitsubishi XForce will compete with similar models including Kia Seltos, Hyundai Creta, Toyota Yaris Cross, and Mazda CX-3.
According to sales consultants, the highest-end versions of Mitsubishi XForce will come with an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) package, including adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning and mitigation, auto high beam, forward moving vehicle reminder, blind spot warning with lane change assist, and rear cross-traffic alert.
The new Mitsubishi model has dimensions of 4,390 x 1,810 x 1,660 mm (length x width x height) with a wheelbase of 2,650 mm and a ground clearance of 222 mm.
Mitsubishi XForce features nearly identical interior and exterior designs to the XFC Concept model that was introduced by the Japanese automaker in Vietnam at the end of last year, with some details removed to make it suitable for commercial production. Overall, this SUV has a modern and muscular appearance thanks to the brand’s characteristic Dynamic Shield design language.
Inside the cabin, XForce boasts top-of-the-line luxury interior space in its segment, with the dashboard and door trim upholstered in melange fabric while the seats feature synthetic leather. The vehicle is equipped with a 12.3-inch infotainment screen with an elegant design that provides a comfortable user experience. The main screen is divided into three areas, allowing for customization of multiple interfaces and the display of different information at the same time.
The car features the Dynamic Sound Yamaha Premium sound system developed by Mitsubishi in collaboration with Yamaha. The system consists of eight speakers, including tweeters on each side of the A-pillar, front door subwoofer, and dual coaxial speakers in the rear doors.
According to the manufacturer, this 5-seater SUV has the most spacious and practical interior space in its segment, with various storage compartments, cooled compartments, adjustable reclining seats, and a flexible rear trunk to accommodate various cargo needs.
Powering the XForce is the 1.5L MIVEC, 4-cylinder engine with 105 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 141 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm, combined with a CVT automatic transmission and front-wheel drive.
XForce is a model that Mitsubishi Motors has high expectations for in its focus on the Southeast Asian market, helping the company expand its market share and share sales with the Xpander.
