Mitsubishi Xpander vs Nissan NV200
Verdict
At RM99,980, the Mitsubishi Xpander costs RM20,180 more than the RM79,800 Nissan NV200, but it is the one built around people: seven seats, a conventional automatic and a five-year warranty. The NV200 is the working tool here, with just two seats but a huge 4,200-litre load area, a 55-litre tank and slightly stronger 108 hp/152 Nm outputs. Safety is close on paper, with two airbags each and no AEB listed. For a Malaysian family, the Xpander makes more sense; for cargo, the NV200 is bluntly better.
Pick the Mitsubishi Xpander if you need seven seats, an automatic gearbox and a longer five-year warranty.
Pick the Nissan NV200 if load space matters more than passenger capacity and you are fine with a manual.
