GIIAS 2016: The world premiere of Mitsubishi's XM small crossover concept car

Mitsubishi Motors today revealed the Mitsubishi XM Concept car - which makes its world debut - at the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show 2016. And what better place to show off the new concept than the country in which it will be built in.

A unique crossover/MPV, it will fuse 'MPV-like functionality along with SUV-like styling' featuring deeply flared front and rear fenders that express stability and generous ground clearance that add sportiness to a sleek body that features free-flowing character lines.

On the inside of the XM Concept car are three rows of seats, that according to Mitsubishi will 'provide a roomy interior space that seats seven occupants comfortably'.

The Mitsubishi XM Concept car uses a wide body and optimised layout to provide generous interior space that allows seven occupants to relax in comfort. The front end incorporates Mitsubishi Motors' Dynamic Shield front design concept that gives visual expression to its function of protecting occupants and the vehicle. 

A small crossover MPV adopting features of the Mitsubishi XM Concept will be produced starting from October 2017 at a new factory located in Bekasi Prefecture, West Java Province to be commissioned earlier in the same year.
