In Vietnam, Mitsubishi Xforce is available in 4 versions, including GLX, Exceed, Premium, and Ultimate. The prices of the GLX, Exceed, and Premium versions of this B-segment SUV range from 620 – 699 million VND, while the price of the Ultimate version has not been announced. Overall, this model has a relatively attractive price in the B-segment SUV market, and it is even cheaper than the Hyundai Creta from South Korea.
So what are the differences in terms of equipment between the 4 versions of Mitsubishi Xforce? In the following article, we will help you answer this question.
Comparison of the exterior equipment of Mitsubishi Xforce in the 4 versions:
It’s not surprising that the 4 versions of Mitsubishi Xforce have some significant differences in terms of exterior equipment. In particular, the standard GLX version is less equipped with monochrome 17-inch alloy wheels and LED Projector headlights. Meanwhile, the other 3 versions will feature sportier 18-inch two-tone alloy wheels.
The standard version of this model will lack features such as front LED fog lights, automatic headlights, automatic rain-sensing wipers, and electrically adjustable tailgate. Most of these features are only available in the highest-end version of the car.
