All-new 2026 Mitsubishi Destinator launching in PH this November

Mark you calendars, the Mitsubishi Destinator is making its Philippine debut on November 20

Remember when we reported that the Land Transportation Office (LTO) released homologation documents about Mitsubishi's upcoming 7-seater crossover SUV? Well, the cat is officially out of the bag.

Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) has just announced that the all-new Destinator is about to make its debut in the country. That's right, after making its global debut last July in Indonesia, MMPC is set to hold the Philippine debut of the Destinator next month.

The automaker will hold the reveal of the Mitsubishi Destinator on November 20, 2025. There will also be a mall display at Ayala Malls Manila Bay, as well as a test drive event at the Aseana City Concert Grounds from November 20 – 23, 2025.

For now, the automaker has yet to reveal all the official specifications and features of the all-new Destinator. But based on what the LTO has already released earlier this month, the Destinator will follow the XForce's variant offerings: GLS and GT.

Based on what Mitsubishi has released so far, the PH-spec Destinator will be available with five drive modes like the XForce (Normal, Tarmac, Wet, Gravel, and Mud), Active Yaw Control, a panoramic sunroof, and Mitsubishi Connect, making the Destinator the first Mitsubishi to have this kind of feature.

Size-wise, both the Destinator GLS and GT models will measure 4680mm long, 1840mm wide, 1780mm tall, and will have a 2518mm wheelbase. Also impressive is the fact that the Mitsubishi Destinator will have a ground clearance of 214mm, which is more than enough to take on rough roads.

Under the hood, the PH-spec Destinator will have a 1499cc engine, which translates to a displacement of 1.5L. This means we will likely get the turbocharged 1.5L MIVEC engine that generates 163 PS with 250 Nm of torque. Power is then sent to the front wheels via a CVT.

With the launch of the all-new Destinator only a month away, we're hoping MMPC reveals more details about the upcoming 7-seater crossover SUV.
