A year after its first-ever appearance in Indonesia, Mitsubishi Motors Philippines has launched the latest Xpander variant – the 2020 Mitsubishi Xpander Cross.
The newest model in the Mitsubishi Philippines’ lineup is still a very family-friendly 7-seater MPV, but the exterior is now built with SUV-like styling cues on top of the already proven interior space and mechanical underpinnings of the Xpander.
With the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross’ release here in the country, it’s set to compete against the likes of the Toyota Rush, Honda BR-V and the Suzuki XL7.
