Review: Mitsubishi Xpander GLS



The Manual variant on display at the showroom

#NCDdailydrives MPVs are starting to dominate roads nowadays as people realize its versatility and use if we are going to talk about a family car. Seats 7 people with a lot of legroom and functionality especially on the top 2 variants.





Together with Bicol Deck, I got my hands on the GLS variant of the much hyped Mitsubishi Xpander for a quick spin and boy this is better than the first MPV that I have driven from another Japanese brand. Much to be noted in terms of its lightness on the wheel, handling and other extra features while the other car only features the basics.

For me, the looks has a busy front with boxy headlights (which I least like), then suddenly Mitsubishi lifted its front to the new Strada. At night whenever I see it on the road, I always imagine it as a complete face with brows, lids, full boxy eyes and the fog lamps as the chin. 🤪 It has an L-shaped taillights which I find sleek and decent. It might look as if there’s not enough space from the outside but there’s a lot of room in it both for leg and head space. Access to the third row is impressively easy as the second row seats has a folding and sliding feat. The design is something that will eventually grow on you and what is important is the performance of the car.








Under the hood it has a 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine. The GLS operates on a four-speed automatic. We don’t need a 5 or 6-speed transmission if we are talking about a family MPV right? So the 4-speed will do just fine. The top of the line, GLS Sport has a push button engine start-stop, dual SRS airbags, ABS with EBD, and vehicle stability control.

The reverse cam is becoming a basic now, GPS on the 7-inch touchscreen display are just few of the other features that makes the Xpander a wonder.

You might want to consider this car as your next family MPV. For inquiries you can contact Ms. Aya Onaka at 09088180494 and 09175153811 or visit her FB Page at Mitsubishi Pili/ Albay BEST PROMO DEALS by Aya Onaka
