Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia (MMM) marked a significant milestone today with the official mass-production line-off of the all-new Mitsubishi Xforce from its assembly line at the Pekan plant, with bookings of the B-segment SUV to open this week.

MMM has upgraded its Pekan manufacturing operations with the establishment of a new Sub-Assembly Body Shop and the installation of advanced equipment across the paint, outfitting, and tester lines to support the all-new Mitsubishi Xforce. Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia CEO, Takashi Sakamaki, says “Mass production of the all-new Mitsubishi Xforce represents the application of Mitsubishi Motors’ Japanese manufacturing philosophy at our Pekan plant.”

The Mitsubishi Xforce production in the Pekan manufacturing plant is carried out in accordance with Mitsubishi Motors’ globally established production standards, from body assembly to painting, all the way to the final inspection. Takashi Sakamaki added, “Built on precision, process discipline, and continuous improvement, these standards ensure that every Xforce produced here meets the same quality benchmarks as Mitsubishi vehicles manufactured anywhere in the world.”

Takashi Sakamaki concludes by saying, “Our priority is to deliver vehicles that embody Mitsubishi Motors’ highest global standards, giving customers confidence, reliability, and pride of ownership from the very first day.”

Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia says that it aims to deliver the first 800 units of the new Mitsubishi Xforce by April 2026, complete with comprehensive quality validation and production readiness checks. Click here to read more about the upcoming Mitsubishi Xforce.
