The car is set to go on display at Vietnam Motor Show 2022 expected to be held from October 26 to October 30.

Mitsubishi has selected Vietnam to launch its new model for the global market as the country represents an important market with great potential and high consumption.

“We will launch the new compact SUV sequentially in the ASEAN markets including Vietnam in fiscal year 2023,” said Takao Kato, president and chief executive of Mitsubishi Motors.

He added that Mitsubishi plans to add an electrified variant to the lineup which will be sold in regions outside of ASEAN.

According to mitsubishi-motors.com, the Mitsubishi XFC Concept is a compact SUV which is not part of the current ASEAN lineup. It complements Mitsubishi Motors' wide range of products which are tailored specifically to the ASEAN market.

This includes the Triton pickup truck and its derivative, the Pajero Sport midsize SUV, the Outlander and Outlander PHEV midsize SUVs, the Xpander and Xpander Cross crossover MPVs, as well as the Mirage compact hatchback and its variant the Attrage sedan.

In Vietnam, the Mitsubishi XFC Concept was tested for more than 4,000 km in order to make sure that the new model can meet relevant traffic conditions in the country.
