One week. One Xforce. A bunch of very willing drivers.
We spent a good amount of time with Mitsubishi’s latest offering and it’s pretty evident how it can totally Rise Above in a pretty packed compact SUV segment.
But of course, a bit of a casual shoot would be obligatory, and it took us to the rather underrated yet scenic coastal stretches between Morib and Tanjung Sepat.
The Xforce felt PERFECT for a route like this. The way it blends comfort, engagement and the confidence of a higher driving position feels so spot on. Big thumbs up for the punchy and very full-sounding Yamaha audio system as well, it filled our gallivanting with just the right amount of Xtra vibes, especially considering the price range.
And, yes, we spent an embarrassing amount of time watching the AYC do its thing on the telemetry display - the car nerds among us were most entertained.
A big domo arigato to Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia for the experience!
We had way too much fun with this one.
