2018 Mitsubishi Xpander - The Next MPV Generation | Xpander MPV 2018

2018 Mitsubishi Xpander Next-generation crossover MPV Debuts at the Gaikinido Indonesia International Auto Show Preliminary specifications: Length/width/height - 4,475/1,750/1,700 mm Engine - 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder petrol, 105 hp Transmission - 5-speed manual / 4-speed automatic; FWD Despite the ongoing trend of multi-purpose vehicles being phased off to make room for crossover utility vehicles, Mitsubishi is keeping its footing in this segment. In fact, the Nissan-owned automaker recently took the wraps off an all-new model. Curiously enough, it doesn’t have a name yet. “Next-generation crossover MPV” is how Mitsubishi refers to its newcomer, with the official name scheduled to be made public at the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show 2017. Let me repeat that: Mitsubishi is keeping this people hauler’s name secret until August 10! Despite everything, numerous reports from Japan and Indonesia refer to the crossover MPV as the Expander. From a visual standpoint, Mitsubishi hasn’t made too many modifications to the exterior design of the XM Concept shown during last year’s Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show. 4,475 millimeters long, 1,750 millimeters wide and with a ride height of 20.5 centimeters, the tentatively named Expander comes with seating for seven as standard. A replacement for both the Freeca and Zinger, the multi-purpose-vehicle hides a 1.5-liter gasoline-fed four-cylinder engine behind the Dynamic Shield front grille. Exclusively available with front-wheel-drive, the Expander comes with a choice of two transmissions: five speeds of the manual variety or a kei car-inspired four-speed automatic. The interior is a mélange of straightforward design and ergonomics-oriented layout, the highlight coming in the form of wood detailing on the passenger side of the dashboard and door panels. The steering wheel, if you know your Mitsubishi vehicles well, comes from refreshed Outlander. Scheduled to enter production at the Mitsubishi plant in Bekasi, Indonesia, the Expander is expected to go on sale in the third quarter of 2017 from 189 million rupiah. That’s $14,200 based on the current exchange rates, whereas the range-topping configuration is expected to kick off in the ballpark of 246 million rupiah (approximately $18,475). While Indonesia waits for the Expander to hit dealer showrooms, Europe and the U.S. brace themselves to welcome the Eclipse Cross. The compact crossover utility vehicle is also due to arrive at dealers this fall.
