The Mitsubishi Xpander Cross is the crossover SUV version of the regular Xpander MPV, which was first introduced in Indonesia in November last year. Now, the Japanese carmaker has launched the car in Philippines and Thailand, as it is working on expanding its presence across Southeast Asia.
The Cross is basically a jacked up variant of the Xpander, which features the same seven-seat layout inside the cabin, but looks slightly more rugged on the outside, thanks to its raised ride height and black plastic body cladding over the car it is based on. The ground clearance of the car has been raised by 25 mm to 225 mm, while the cladding makes it 50 mm wider than the standard Xpander.
The Cross will be offered as the range topping variant in the Xpander range, and hence, it will come equipped with all the bells and whistles. It gets a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system sitting in the center of the dashboard. However, the infotainment system does not offer Apple CarPlay or Android Auto connectivity.
Mitsubishi has priced the Xpander Cross in the Philippines at 1,255,000 pesos, which converts to about Rs 18.09 lakh in Indian currency, and 899,000 baht in Thailand, which equals to almost INR 20.56 lakh. The SUV will compete against the likes of the Honda BR-V and the Haval H2 in the foreign markets.
