    My experience is quite the opposite. The fresh from the casa battery is the one that lasts the longest. The subsequent replacement ones are a hit and miss thing for me. Most times, the replacments last one, two, or three months after the warranty expires. But I just had one this week that just died on me. Worked fine on Sunday, died on Monday. After checking the records, I find out it only lasted 10 months. What the hell. Motolite quality not up to par anymore?

    So far naman, swerte kami sa car batteries. Always at least 3 years before we need to change them. But that may also have to do with most our cars in the immediate family are driven around 10k kms per year and little to no additional/replaced accessories. Everything is stock, we don't replace headlights. The most is the horn for some cars. But that's about it.

    So far good experience with claiming warranties with Motolite if we found issues with the battery they supplied. Kaya medyo nakasanayan na through Motolite, eventhough medyo nagmamahal na talaga siya compared to other brands. But I guess you could call it the price of convenience. =)

    And yes, yung mga maintenance free batteries ngayon ang liit na. I guess improvements in design na din siguru. Less wasted space in the engine bay. =)

    i am confident, tatagal siya.
    years before, i got the smallest battery i could find, for my old sentra.
    tumagal naman, well past the warranty period.
    the battery is just to start the car, kasi. once started, the alternator provides.
    I heard through the casa that the xpanders alternator is already 90 amperes much bigger than the adventures 75 amps

    Soon to be launched Mitsubishi MPV to rival the likes of Avanza, Ertiga, Mobilio and even the BRV...

    Is it the replacement for Adventure?
    Will it have MIVEC Diesel engine?


    Estimate Philippine launch December 2017

    First time to see an Xpander at night. Super awkward lights placement - white LED up top, very big yellow halogen headlamps in the middle, then puny fog lamps at the bottom.

    It looks even more awkward than the Juke's. Perhaps it would be better if the main beams were the same color temp as the park lights/DRLs.

    Yea I saw a few of them in actual and it looks so weird. Sharp looking LEDs at top, big square headlamp in the middle, then round fogs below. Three different shapes for the lights makes it look inconsistent together with the big chrome moustache.

    i wonder, how does the expander's headlight illumination compare with the competition's with higher headlight placement?

    Maybe the MMC wants to show the uniqueness and styles of their lights for better visibility at night like the success to the 3rd gen montero sports.

    The grill is actually what makes it eye catching, it entices you to take a second look.

    First time I saw a non GLS Xpander.

    Sobrang pangit ng wheels!!! Uminit ulo ko eh haha.

    GLS is the way to go talaga.

    What are the differences between the GLS AT and GLX Plus AT ? Didnt know they had different sets of wheels actually.

    Is the Active Stability Control, Traction Control and Hill Start Assist really a BIG PLUS for everyday driving? If it is then they should have made this available across all variants and not just the Ultimate or Sports versions.

    But going back, yeh with barely a 40k difference I would probably end up going with the GLS AT myself.

    10 gazillion lumens plug and play LED vs a real retrofit.

    Quicky question, totoo po bang 205 pa rin ang ground clearance nang xpander sport or bumaba na? Medyo doubtful kac ako sa ground clearance. Evrytime npunta ako sa mga casa malapit dito sa amin, laging gls plus lng nka display.
