Overview

Built on the same platform as the Xpander MPV, the Xforce uses an updated Mitsubishi Motors design language up front, being the latest evolution of the 'Dynamic Shield' theme.^[10] According to Mitsubishi Motors, Xforce is specifically tuned to offer heightened ride comfort on Southeast Asian roads, using a larger caster trail and quicker OA gear ratio in the front suspension, along with bigger-diameter rear shock absorbers. Active Yaw Control (AYC) is standard.^[8] The Xforce offers four driving modes depending on variant: Normal, Wet, Gravel and Mud. The 'Wet' mode is the first for a Mitsubishi Motors model.

According to Takao Kato, president and CEO of Mitsubishi Motors, the company is working on an electrified variant of the SUV in the future, which may be launched in regions outside of ASEAN.^[11]
