Mitsubishi Motors Philippines (MMPC) proudly proclaims that the Mitsubishi Xpander has claimed the no.1 bestselling vehicle title in the country for 2025. A total of 28,081 units were sold, also making it the bestselling Multi-Purpose Vehicle (MPV) for the third straight year—proof that the Xpander appeals to Filipinos and that they trust not just the car, but the brand itself.
The Xpander first arrived in the Philippines in 2018. It captivated the market with its eye-catching design, 7-seater capability, and fuel-efficient powertrain. This combination of style, comfort, and value made it very enticing to Filipinos. Their patronage to the Xpander allowed Mitsubishi to continue revising and improving the vehicle, making it more formidable in the segment over the years.
Its latest addition is the inclusion of Active Yaw Control to the whole lineup, even the base variant. It makes cornering safer which is useful for the numerous mountain roads and city curves in the country. Making it accessible to the whole lineup allowed it to be more accessible to all buyers.
Designed for Filipino lifestyles
The 7-seater configuration became an instant hit because of Filipinos’ tendency to always have extended family members in our household. We have aunts, uncles, or grandparents in our household and so getting out for a weekend trip requires more seats in a vehicle.
Aside from the number of seats, the Xpander excels in its versatility. There’s generous cabin space, versatile folding seats, and pockets in different areas. This makes it ideal for daily commutes, family outings, and long road trips.
It also helps that the Xpander has high ground clearance and a robust suspension system. That makes this MPV very tolerant to unpredictable road conditions in the city or out in the provinces. There are also creature comforts that give both driver and passengers peace of mind while travelling.
Efficient performance, proven reliability
The Xpander’s powertrain has been the same ever since it started here in the Philippines. The formidable 1.5L MIVEC engine and trusted 4-speed automatic offers a smooth and confident driving experience while keeping the ownership cost very manageable. It delivers long-term value thanks to the MMPC’s reputation for durability and extensive nationwide dealer network.
“The Mitsubishi Xpander was designed with family lifestyles in mind, from daily city driving to family road trips. Apart from the Mitsubishi brand being a trusted car brand by Filipino families for six decades, we believe that Xpander’s timeless aesthetic appeal, unmatched comfort both for driver and passengers, efficient performance, and worry-free ownership support thru our aftersales and dealer network are the perfect recipe for a lifetime companion which is what Filipinos are looking for,” said MMPC President and CEO Ritsu Imaeda.
MMPC is offering a promo in light of this achievement by the Xpander. For March 2026, customers can enjoy savings of up to PHP 120,000 making it even more attainable for Filipino families to own the country’s most trusted MPV.
