Mitsubishi is set to launch its highly-anticipated 7-seater SUV, the Destinator, in Vietnam towards the end of this year.
Aside from its sleek design and features, the Destinator’s fuel efficiency is what truly captures the interest of potential customers.
During its trial run, the Mitsubishi Destinator displayed impressive fuel consumption rates. While navigating city streets at an average speed of 25 km/h, the vehicle achieved 14.3 km/l (equivalent to 7 l/100 km). On the highway, with a steady speed of 80 km/h, fuel consumption dropped to 16.4 km/l (approximately 6.1 l/100 km). In mixed conditions, over a 141.1 km journey from Jakarta to Bandung (Indonesia), with an average speed of 66 km/h and carrying three passengers with luggage, the Destinator consumed fuel at a rate of 15.6 km/l (around 6.4 l/100 km).
All tests were conducted under normal driving conditions with the air conditioning running continuously. The test vehicle was the top-of-the-line Destinator Ultimate Premium trim, but as all variants are powered by the same 1.5L turbocharged engine (producing 161 hp and 250 Nm of torque), fuel efficiency is expected to be similar across the range.

In addition to its fuel-sipping ways, the Destinator also boasts multiple drive modes, including a Tarmac mode that enhances acceleration and provides a more confident driving experience.
With its impressive specifications and features, the Destinator is poised to continue the success of the Mitsubishi Xforce in the highly competitive 7-seater SUV segment in Vietnam.
