All-new Montero Sport strong in reservations

MANILA, Philippines - Reservations for the all-new 2016 Montero Sport has been strong and rising.

“Everything about the 2016 Montero Sport is new: the exterior and interior design, dashboard and instrumentation, among other things,” said Froilan Dytianquin, Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corp. (MMPC) first vice president said.

He said MMPC dealers have pre-booked more than 900 units of the all new model and are ready to deliver. The official introduction will be made next month.

“We are pleased with the current reservation trend and expect it to keep growing after the formal launch. The previous model of the Montero Sport was the market leader in the mid-size SUV segment from 2009 to 2013,” he said.

The new model has four variants with prices ranging from P1.5 million to P1.9 million. 

Dytianquin expects the new model to be a major player as its predecessor has been.  In Thailand, this all new Montero Sport has sold more than 8,500 units since it started to deliver last October.

Recently, the all new Montero attained 5-star rating in both Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP) and the Latin New Car Assessment Program for Adult Occupant Protection. 

The all new Montero is now on display at all Mitsubishi Motors Philippines dealer outlets nationwide and will also be displayed in various malls starting this month.
