Mitsubishi Motors Unveils Turbocharged 7-Seater 2026 Destinator SUV

Mitsubishi Motors expands its model line-up with the introduction of the Destinator—a new three-row small SUV that combines a tough, energetic design with strong performance.

The production version of the DST Concept that was shown at the Philippine International Motor Show in 2024, the Destinator sits above the Xpander Cross, but below the Montero Sport in Mitsubishi’s line-up. Powering the Destinator is a turbocharged 1.5-liter 4-cylinder with 147 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque. It offers five drive modes, including Tarmac mode for the first time. And while it remains a front-wheel drive crossover, it does have a remarkably high 224 mm ground clearance.

Anybody else thinks that Mitsubishi's design language is too... cluttered?

Yup, way too cluttered and the name.

Guess their tag line will be something like, it is the destination not the journey. Ha ha.

specs

So roughly the size of a tucson, only a bit higher tas 7-seats. Maybe closer to cr-v.

Pero no hybrid and diesel power. The overall look too is meh.

Even the smaller x-force is mechanically awful (spec-wise) compared to the similar-sized hr-v.

Could this be a preview of the looks of the upcoming Pajero?

I wish it was meh. They make it look like the lovechild of Shaider, Gavan, and Spielban.... or it might transform into a Mechwarrior. They're really laying on the Jap Mecha look too thick.

Mitsu owners.... just messing around. Don't take my opinions too seriously. ;)

"corporate look".
where all the models thru the line, will intentionally share similar, if not identical, cues...

Possible na iyong recent spy photos ay Montero Sport kung Triton based. Though kung Patrol based, Pajero ito.

Here's another possible tag line - "It is your destiny." - D.V.

Imo parang madaling magmukang luma o laos in the long run. Though admittedly, it looks better than the original dynamic shield fascia.

Parang out of the factory puno na kagad ng garnishes.... which I find cheesy.
