Updated Oct 07, 2020 | Same topic: Automotive Industry Updates

The Mitsubishi Mirage and L300 will be exported in ASEAN region.

This year, Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) could be the first vehicle exporter in the Philippines.

In late 2018, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) requested Mitsubishi to start exporting Mitsubishi cars built in the Philippines to be exported out of the shores and MMC agreed.

According to DTI Secretary Ramon Lopez, this is one of the moves that will help bring the Philippines into a global production hub for vehicles once again. Subsequently, the Philippine-assembled Mirage G4 and Mirage will be exported in the ASEAN region in 2019.

At present, the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 (sedan) and Mirage hatchback are built under the CARS (Comprehensive Automotive Resurgence Strategy) program. Besides, the Mitsubishi L300 will also be exported in neighboring countries in ASEAN.
