Xforce in 2026 — what's new

Both use the 1,499 cc naturally aspirated petrol engine, CVT automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. An Xforce HEV has launched and gone on display in Indonesia, but Malaysian availability has not been confirmed. The Malaysian petrol Xforce records 2,600 bookings before launch and 900 customer deliveries in its first month.

Which variant to buy

Most buyers should choose the RM109,980 Urban. It has the same 1,499 cc, 104 hp petrol engine, front-wheel-drive layout, CVT automatic transmission and five-seat cabin as the RM119,980 Ultimate. The RM10,000 gap does not buy extra power or a different drivetrain, so pay for the Ultimate only if its trim-specific equipment justifies it for you. On the core mechanical specification, the Urban is the sensible entry point.

Mitsubishi Xforce buyer's guides & reviews

Verdict

The Xforce arrives with a straightforward two-variant petrol range and a conventional 104 hp 1.5-litre/CVT/FWD package. It becomes Malaysia’s top-selling non-national compact SUV in April 2026, following strong pre-launch bookings. Its entry price sits slightly above the Omoda Jaecoo J5 and Mazda CX-3, while remaining below the Nissan Kicks e-Power. The deciding factor between Urban and Ultimate is equipment, not mechanical performance.
