New Mitsubishi Xpander – As Big Or Small As You Want
The updated 2024 Mitsubishi Xpander received a few subtle upgrades – mainly to the grille and layout of the lights that add a SUV-like look to the Xpander MPVs.
The Mitsubishi Xpander gives South African drivers the ‘gravel travel’ of an SUV, the seating capacity of an MPV and versatility unlike any other vehicle in its class. The 2024 Xpander’s 16” wheels and 205mm ground clearance will let you leave the highway with confidence, while the front-wheel-drive will give you the fuel economy and handling to make your open road holiday, commute or school runs a pleasure.
With seven seats, you can take a small crowd on holiday or drive half the cricket team in your Mitsubishi Xpander compact MPV. The generous overall height of 1,730mm and length of 4,495mm means legroom will not be a problem either. All the Mitsubishi Xpander seats in the back can fold flat – so you can convert your substantial Mitsubishi Xpander dimensions into a practical space to carry the biggest and most awkward of loads as well.
The Mitsubishi Xpander car has the same handsome ‘Dynamic Shield’ front face familiar to recent new Mitsubishi offerings. This, coupled with the sleek body design and abundant features, means your Xpander will confidently sit at the mall or the executive parking level.
The 1.5-litre 4-cylinder DOHC 16-valve Mitsubishi Xpander engine is the quietest in its class and gives you plenty of grunt and torque. You will have the choice of manual or automatic transmission.

Mitsubishi Xpander Review
The Multi-Purpose Vehicle (MPV) stable in the local market seems to have fizzled out somewhat since SUVs have become trendier over the last few years. Despite this apparent decline, the Mitsubishi Xpander continues on its journey to much success. While the design cues may not appeal to everyone, they actually work if you understand where the automaker is taking its design language.
Moving on from its appearance, a 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder engine does the job across the range. It develops a respectable 77 kW and 141 Nm of torque and performs adequately under normal driving conditions and simply eats the kilometres with ease on the open road. In terms of safety – the Xpander comes standard with airbags, seatbelt pre-tensioners with force limiters, ABS, EBD and ISOFIX child seat anchors.

| Model | Combined Fuel Consumption |
|---|---|
| 1.5L Manual transmission | 6.9 litres per 100km |
| 1.5L Automatic transmission | 7.0 litres per 100km |
