Erratum at 12:08 - 12.3-inch infotainment system, not 10.25
1.581M and 1.367M for a subcompact is not competitive at all. 😄
For the same price the new xpander cross hybrid is sold in other ASEAN countries. PH price will probably be around 2 kk
geez akala ko mas mura to than most sub compact
This is why chinese cars seem to be winning in sub compact segment
5 seater at Same engine ng expander pero Mas mhal??!! No sense at all 😂😂
Id rather choose Honda HRV with honda sensing. Waybetter than xforce
At that price, Nissan Kicks & Honda HRV might be a better option. Then there's the Yaris Cross & Territory
hr-v base doesn't even have curtain airbags, same as the xforce base. you're paying almost 1.4m and you still don't get proper safety equipment. what a shame.
@@rondg2HRV base model has Honda Sensing, side airbags & a much more powerful engine than the Xforce. That's definitely a better value proposition.
@@paolosy1293 HRV Better option than xforce
@@maracoonsThe HRV does have a side airbags, i checked it out personally as it was one of my choices. The TOTL HRV RS has a reverse camera & Honda lane watch camera, i checked it out too. I have pictures with me, looking at it now.
@@maracoonsYoure spreading misinformation. The base HR-V has side airbags.
After watching this, the sonet might be Kia Philippines' saving grace.. Price, looks, tech, safety - mukhang practical bilhin c sonet if you want a smooth 4cylinder subcompact crossover and hate 3 cylinders.
Safety 🫠🙈
@@anothersubscriber2024I think kia have better safety impression than mitsubishi 😅 remember the raging monteros?
@mr.mimeyjr.9216 That was like... a decade ago na.. Besides, if you're talking about the SUA thing, Mitsu already fixed that.
@@mr.mimeyjr.9216 For safety, Subaru and Mitsubishi is on top, their new Outlander and Triton with Mitsubishi's RISE Body is on 🔝.
@@anothersubscriber2024 if you want more safety subcompact then go for seltos.
At 1.581M, you can just purchase the Hyundai Tucson gas variant with the 2.0L engine, or better the Montero GLX MT variant. lol
Or kia seltos EX
Yes, sana they priced it lower lalo na yan new nameplate.
Or a toyota yaris cross HEV
@@eiijeiimanio6800 Daihatsu Yan, Daihatsu safety scandal
Touché. The Hyundai Tucson Gas variant is definitely a good choice at this price. Even the Emkoo and the Ford Territory Sport are already in the horizons and both will poop
on this ugly twin of the Jetour Dashing (which is a knockoff of the Lamborghini Urus) 😂
the torque and hp rating being low + that price point is such a mood killer... Saw the concept before in Newport, I was really hoping for this
According to other channels hindi naman daw ganoon ka-underpowered. We'll see...
With that price makakakuha kana ng much more powerful but efficient na Honda HRV Turbo V
@@StarsStripes-vh7kw what did you expect? of course they'll say nice things, otherwise di na invited sa next event haha. for sure sluggish yang xforce compared to a lighter 1.5 car like a honda city for example
Kakalaunch pa lang off na agad sa pricing. Expecting this to be pulled out of the PH market in a year or two.
Does it have OD on/off feature for uphill/downhill like expander?
That price?? Mabubulok lang yan sa mga warehouse nila pag ganyan ang price
Hi end nila ka price na ng Yaris Cross HEV... kaya mag clock ng 15kmpl walwal mode HEV OWNER.
This will actually be worthwhile when it gets the Xpander Hybrid's powertrain.
TG kindly enlighten us why newer cars dont come with mud guard/splash guards? you rolled it into a gravel, i believe that sample model has a lot of dings in it
It’s definitely a good looking modern crossover. Definitely the dealbreaker is that it is under underpowered for the money. There is a lot of competition that gives you a lot more for your hard earned money.
@@Beyondthebox11 modern? But good looking? Definitely not. It’s so over the top.
Power is behind the competition but damn it looks good exterior and interior-wise!
Good job Mitsubihi Motors. Magaling talaga mga Features kakabilib. Mitsubishi No.1 ka...
Is it bigger than the new Kia Sonet? Which is significantly cheaper. From what I just watched, it has several obvious advantages; electronic hand break w/ autohold, power tailgate, higher ground clearance and dual zone climate control.
And for me, I actually prefer not having a sunroof.
Looks good! Pero price-wise and features, mukhang mas ok yung options from others.
last day napo ata nila.
"Teased as a concept last year, the XForce has been greenlit for production and hopes to do battle in the highly competitive B-segment Crossover market. The upcoming Mitsubishi XForce will be offered to compete against vehicles like the GAC GS3 Emzoom, Honda HR-V, Toyota Corolla Cross, and Geely Coolray." How is this suppose to compete with Coolray and Emzoom 👀
Not even close lol
You damn right! Chinese and korean really think to balance the look's and performance. Ito ung gwapo tingnan pero wlang angas ampaw kumbaga.I will put my money on Lynk and Co 06 with same price but much higher specs.
@@ninjaaabunnny agree!!! Its over priced for its specs. Id rather choose hrv for performance or yaris cross for efficiency.
They better drop the price to 1.2m if they even want to be shortlisted. No one is buying this lol.
@@LightningSe7en I am :)
Better to choose yaris cross kahit walang turbo may hybrid option naman. Kung di nila nilagyan ng hybrid itong xforce, kahit may turbo sana to compete and more fun to drive.
How could the fuel economy improve with the regular house to office commute? It would be the first time for me to encounter a car that is more fuel efficient in city traffic than in the highway.
Perfect na sana dashboard kung hindi ganun ka kapal ung boarder nya. Mas maganda sana kung bezel-less sya.
If compare to the raize, it's overpriced but if you come to think of it, against the Yaris Cross, it makes sense. 👌
parang may pagka porche feel ang exterior kaso P1.5m 👀 just add a few hundred thousand montero na
alanganin yung pricing
Bale upgraded Xpander? Wala pala 3rd row. 😅 Bale ipangtatapat dun sa Veloz level?
Saw this when I was Indonesia last month. Excited sana kasi it looked good. Pero the price and performance are slightly disappointing. The wheel slip while going up the hill was concerning. Price range nito mas pipiliin mo yaris or corolla cross or an HRV. I might even consider the Sonet which I also first saw sa Bali. That looks more bang for The buck.
looks better than yaris cross or corrola cross, a sure head to head competition. Magkano kayo to?
I like everything about it except for the place where they put the start button
They should at least bring down the GLS to only 1.3M since almost same price as Honda HRV S but honda has Safety sense which the FlX force GLS does not have.
not to mention the honda has slightly more powerful engine, the legendary H badge, and the super practical ULTR seats
adaptive cruise control?
Yup
This seems to look like the all new 2025 Nissan Kicks recently introduced in the New York car show, with of course body modification, a sign of the Nissan Renault Mitsubishi Alliance. But it is well powered at 2.0 ICE with AWD option. It may be released in the Philippines with the EPower technology 3rd generation by later part of 2025🤞 fingers crossed 🙂
Kakakita ko lang kanina dito sa Petron kinakargahan yung dalawang pang test drive nila. Mas ok yung itsura kesa sa Xpander
Is that hybrid?
Of course it's struggling going up that very steep incline because it's front wheel drive
Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross na lng ipunta jan sa pinas, pero gwapo parin tong Xforce 💪
Is it fast?
Di manlang natuto sa pricing strategy ng chevy trax and trailblazer. Offering stylish cars with good interior and exterior pero ampaw engine specs and pricing = walang sales. Pag ito bumenta asahan nyo di magbabago ng mindset mga legacy manufacturers na yan na binebentahan kayo ng subpar quality ng engine and specs at a premium price porke "legacy" brand nila
nakakagulat yung Trax kasi i'm not a tall person pero nung tinest drive ko sya, the cabin feels claustrophobic.
Totl xforce or totl yaris cross or the Gas tucson? They are in the same price.
@@juneldomingo6277 base trim corolla cross hybrid, if you don't mind some missing features and fabric seats the TNGA platform alone makes it worth it, i test drove both the yaris cross hybrid and the corolla cross hybrid the ride quality is significantly better.
Tucson na. Ka-level na nun ay RAV4.
Should had the hybrid , like eith the new engine of xpander hybrid
Magkano cast price nang xforce gt
I love this car so much prior to official launch but given the experience, It seems like Sonet would be a better option if you wanted to save but for the same price go for Yaris cross and if china isn’t an issue and you dont want to spend much then go for chery 5x pro 😅
will they bring the e-power on this?
Considering where the world is headed and Mitsubishi's current plans, it's likely but not 100% guaranteed. If it were to get electrified, it would most likely be a similar setup to the Xpander HEV e:MOTION, which is a 1.6L NA w/ Electric motor
Sonet... Thank you so much... You save us.
I know it’s underpowered, but for driving around Metro Manila 90% of the time, the 1.5 should be okay?
Almost 1.6M pesos with only 1.5L engine and CVT.
1.58 million? Im getting the montero manual
Definitely
From a Montero Sport to Xpander, I can say it still feels better to drive something simple. And as someone who doesn't really need 7 seats, I gladly disagree with this logic.
@@MiggyMndza if you want logic, then go with the hrv with honda sensing or a corolla cross
@MiggyMndza yah. If you want logic. You will not pick this one. Right?
Few thousands of pesos i will go with Corolla Crooss V.
The steep hill problem is more likely becuse of the Front Engine-Front Wheel Drive layout rather than because of the engine output. The front wheels are visibly slipping if one looks closely. At a climb that steep it is losing grip unfortunately.
Definitely, and you also have to take into consideration not just Engine power output, but also the vehicles traction control system, etc. I don't really understand why so many people are complaining about the XForce having the same 1.5 NA Engine as the Xpander, but really, I would say based on the many reviews I've watched (including reviews from ID) that it has enough power to make it up at full capacity, maybe not with the greatest of ease, but it will make it up. Take a look at some reviews in Indonesia for example, I've seen one where they did an uphill test with the Xpander, Xpander Cross, and XForce at Full capacity, and it made it up. You also gotta take into consideration the driver as well, since in scenarios like that, you wanna be able to take a good line since a part of that turn seems to be steeper than the other side of the turn if you can understand where I'm getting at.
@@MochizukiYuusei of course kaya ang uphill, coz the CVT has enough gear ratio to do it. parang winch lang yan, it's such a small device but can pull your car coz the gear ratio gives a lot of mechanical advantage. yung lack of engine power is more apparent when overtaking
This car is destined to eat dust.
The truth of the matter is that this car reminds me of a woman in her 70s who insists on getting a full blown plastic surgery to look young, and succeeds to do so but being in her 70s, she just couldn’t manage to walk as gracefully because of her arthritis.
for fun maybe.
ano kaya ung feeling na nakabili kana , after nun dun mo palang nabasa mga comments sa youtube.
Non-turbo. It should give a little edge if it has.
Solid lahat ng features. Parang bitin lang talaga sa engine.
Yung engine lng ang downside😂
Hirap sa akyatan....kita sa video na gapang na
May review nyan against HRV S (honda city engine) at Hyundai Creta sa ibang bansa. Iwan na iwan sa power and acceleration sa dalawa yang XForce. Si Creta ang most powerful sa kanilang tatlo. I think XForce's engine & tranny are more tuned for efficiency kasi matipid sya sa fuel at smooth ibyahe.
ground clearance?
Nasa 222mm clearance kung hindi ako nagkakamali sir
FRESH COMMENT 👋
@Top Gear Philippines DO CAR COMPARO BETWEEN TOYOTA YARIS CROSS VS NISSAN KICKS VS MITSUBISHI XFORCE PLEASE? THANX.
No need. Talo agad value for money pa lang. Unless you want to pay for a weak powertrain but better looks...
2 lang yan, either mahihiya at hnd papayag si Mitsu, or bka mas lalong mapagtawanan lang. either will kill xforce.
So i guess people will still pick Sonet on top of all its competitor in the same category. Dahil sa pricing niya.
I was expecting this to be affordable pa nga
It looks better too with a bit more horses.
Kung pipiliin sunroof over safety, yes.
@@anothersubscriber2024 Lowkey sh*ttin on Sonet. You probably own a trash Raize which Sonet ate alive. I sense too much copium in you 😂
@@diiiiiiluuuuccxccxr9862 maniwala ko pag nakakalahati man lang ng sales yan or I guess another flop at discontinued just like stonic. Oopf 🫠
Parang mad solid p Un changan cs35 kahit 2yr older sa prize, engine, specs, safety.
Noice!
I'll just buy a Jetour T2 ❤
DOA...may dalawang hybrid na toyota sa price segment na 1.4m to 1.5m
For it's price, it's is super underpowered.
No cam 360?tapos sabi nila luxury car? 😂😅
Who said it's a luxury car?
@@streamingvideo6654 from other vids not this video. That's how they advertise it.
Astig very futuristic yung looks nya!
Shoooooooot ang pogi ng front facia and sexy ass!!! I mean the rear end 😁with also poging shoes! Imagine having 18s in stock mode Deeeeeeeeeeymmmmmnnn!!!
Nice one Mitsu!!!
Porsche feels outside ❤❤❤❤
If their price is around 1-1.1m that would be competitive i think, naoff agad ako sa price nya tbh, Sayang pogi pa naman sana,
For sure mapupull out agad to sa philippine market kapag ganyan pricing nila,
Right out of the gate, the Xforce loses to the Toyota Yaris Cross in price, features, and safety. Mitsubishi should offer aggressive discounts if they want this car to sell.
That's until you see a YC in person. Right off the bat, got immediately turned off after just closing a door of one. It screamed Daihatsu right at the very moment.
Ended with an Xpander, and even got a generous discount. Build quality is miles better, should expect the same here.
@@MiggyMndzahe doesn't know that YC is a rebadged daihatsu. Poor logic comparison 😂
Why the Yaris Cross? The lowest spec Corolla Cross is 1.5M and a hybrid. I don't see the point of the Yaris Cross after that.
@@howmonster agree. you may compare this to corolla cross a really toyota but not to yakis cross. i think these commenters doesnt have enough money to buy quality known established car brands
@@howmonster Yes, but the highest spec non-hybrid Yaris Cross is 1.3M and is a better value than the Xforce. I don't see the point of comparing a hybrid with a non-hybrid.
cuteeee! looks like Volvo's XC40 Recharge
MANUAL TRANSMISSION PLEASE 🙏....
Entry srp 1.3M feels like it should be the TOTL srp lmao
Engine spec wise at pricing olats to sa sales mapa xpander o chinese brands crossover realtalk prang kia seltos lng pricing na mas mahal pa wlanh turbo nyak.
If Mitsubishi brought this to North America it would sell very well.
Turbo?
Vios City size engine at 1.5 non turbo
Good concept for future Mitsubishi interior and exterior but for now it's a bit of joke when it comes to price, engine, and Innovation
Sa middle east, mitsubishi eclipse cross ang kamukha nya.
Parang mas magiging bet ng Pinoy ang Kia Sonet
Kia, toyota and the chinese brands have a subcompact that's less than 800k to 900k tell me which is competitive.
the coolray is way better than this overpriced xpander with new casing 😁
it looks good!
is it reasonably priced? it looks good!
does it have enough power? it looks good!
is it better than the competition? it looks good!
kidding aside, mitsu should reconsider the price given that at that price point you can already get a yaris cross HEV, corolla cross, kicks, territory, etc.
8:52 You finally got out of what??
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Why would you even want to get in that?
brod, pati ung vlogger mas gusto p ata nya i vlog ung eroplano kesa sa product.
CVT - autopass
Expander engine 😂😂😂😂 slow af
Monthly
Xpander's engine is so underpowered
Wait inline with Veloz/rush its still underpowered?
Yes. Had experienced this when we rented one. We have a hybrid yaris cross which feels like a sports car compared to the xpander.
@@megsman4749 yx is sub compact xover while xpander is mpv 7 seater best comparison would be rush or veloz/avanza 1.5 Well for me test driven yx vs his present competitor and its just okay not that fast a typical toyota 1.5L engine. Tho you need sound deadening to reduce the noise.
Sana man lang yung mga mas malakas na makina nilagay nila kahit yung galing sa Eclipse Cross o RVR/ASX.
@@streamingvideo6654 and compared sa pricing ng indonesia and malaysia, ang mahal ng unit srp sa atin. Kala mo naman galing japan. I'd rather get a Geely Azkarra than this, mas mura pa.
Eto yung pangalan na malakas "Xforce" 😅,, pero ang makina ekis talaga.. Mahinang mahina.. Walang ka force force🤣🤣
Ang basa kasi e ekis ang force, kaya XForce
@@viralinfo23 sabi nga ng ibang nag comment, x means no, xforce = no force 😆
literal na walang Force sa MASA. walang hatak atensyon.
Ok na ako sa xpander
kung 1.8 lng engine nito, it will sell like hotcakes
Hyundai tucson na lng ako for that price..liit ng makina
Tucson Gas or Seltos EX
Comparo with GAC Emzoom
Not even fucking close hahahha dudurugin ng GCR at emzoom to promise hahaha
Haha its a shame comparing this to Emzoom or Coolray
Makina palang talo na sa emzoom.. Jusko,, komparo nito raize.. Dun eto bagay e compare.. Mga mahihinang nilalang
There's no comparison this model is trash
I'm more excited for the Philippine launch of Mitsubishi Xpander Cross HEV 7-seater than this one...
Kakainis may permanent plate na sila. Yung nabili namin last year na sasakyan wala pa ring plate kahit temporary!
It looks good but lacks some exterior and interior features and the engine is not so powerful. I think I would rather buy a Ford Territory Titanium X which is in the same price range as their top-of-the-line.
I think people will still buy this despite of its specs because its a Mitsubishi, just like what happen to Raize.
Won't be profitable. They will eventually release the hybrid for it I think but I hope its not too late.
Difference is the raize is a budget car while this one is an overpriced under powered car.
@@rhythmiccamp7680 that's right, for me at this price better get an Emzoom or HRV.
@@corolla9545 makakabili ka na ata ng 2 raize sa totl nitong xforce e, yun sng biggest difference 😆
At 1.581m vs 1.625m for the Ford Territory Sport, who in their right mind would even consider this Jetour Dashing knockoff (which are both knockoffs of the Lamborghini Urus) 😂
haha may settings na gravel pero di makaalis sa gravel
At 1.581m vs 1.625m for the Ford Territory Sport, who in their right mind would even consider this Jetour Dashing knockoff (which are both knockoffs of the Lamborghini Urus) 😂
At this price, the Emkoo or the Yaris Cross V are better options. If you’re patient, wait for the Hyundai Creta 2025 facelift. It’s already in the Indian markets
very great interior and exterior...this is really promising...one drawback is the CVT (for me) 😢
if they made it 6AT or turbocharged...this will win the competition
This is the reason why chinese cars are looking like a better choice. For that price I’d look for other options to be honest. 1.5 thats already a Montero Manual 😅
Go for Chinese cars. Goodluck for the after support. Poor mindset :)))))
HUGE MISS By Mitsubishi is the powertrain for the TOTL model. All of the competitors from Korea and Japan are either Hybird or TurboCharged. Kia Seltos, Toyota Yaris Cross, Honda HRV, and Nissan Kicks. Imagine paying 1.6M for a 1.5 NA engine well it is reliable.
Hybrid batteries are so expensive to replace 😂 Are you willing to spend 300,000 Pesos to replace those batteries?😂
HRV isn't a threat anymore as Honda dealers don't stock too much units anymore due to very low demand and poor sales (60 units a month) 😂
1.581M get a jimny 5door for a proper off-roader
Terribly priced. Brought no innovations to the table. Should have been a hybrid, turbocharged, or AWD at its price range.
Even the base model Montero Sport is cheaper than this top of the line lol
It will not sell that much. Unless they put at least 140hp engine for its price
CVT ? No way ! Only a matter of time till the CVT fails like they ALL do - and an awful driving experience before it fails 😐
palit ka cvt fluid every 20k. don't overload the car. tatagal din naman yan
Pass
Hindi pa nka Turbo, tpos nka Torsion Beam parin, nubayan. petsa na.
