This is it!! Finally, Mitsubishi introduced the Low MPV car also to the general public in Indonesia, namely XM Concept. Although still a concept of course this was already anticipated by the petrolhead. Mitsubishi Concept XM has a combined vision between MPV and SUV more or less like a seven-passenger car with a look like SUVs. Yes something like BR-V may be.

Mitsubishi XM Concep's name is taken from the letters X and M, X means crossover and M is the initial letter of the word MPV. This car comes at the auto show GIIAS 2015 that lasted 11 to 21 August 2016 ICE Bumi Serpong Damai, Banten.
