Al Habtoor Motors, the exclusive distributor of Mitsubishi Motors in the United Arab Emirates, officially unveiled the all-new Mitsubishi Destinator at an exclusive launch held at the Al Joud Ballroom, Hilton Al Habtoor City, Dubai.
Marking its official UAE debut, the Destinator is introduced as a mid-size 7-seater SUV, signaling a strategic evolution in Mitsubishi’s product portfolio and reinforcing the brand’s commitment to delivering refined, versatile mobility solutions tailored to the needs of modern families.
As the UAE’s automotive market continues to shift towards vehicles that balance urban sophistication with weekend capability, the Destinator arrives as a masterclass in thoughtful engineering. With convenient features at every seat and ample cargo space, it provides a premium, stress-free environment for the modern family on the move.
Premium comfort is further elevated by a Panoramic Sunroof, Dual-Zone Automatic Air Conditioning, and a bespoke Console Tray with Wireless Charging.
Unrivaled capability and engineering DNA
Staying true to Mitsubishi’s heritage of durability, this mid-size 7-seater SUV is powered by a high-efficiency 1.5-litre MIVEC Turbo engine, delivering responsive performance and strong torque. The Destinator has been developed precisely for this evolution, delivering premium practicality and Mitsubishi’s trusted reliability in a package ideally suited to the lifestyle of our UAE customers.
A design language of gravitas and dynamism
The Destinator’s presence is anchored by a design philosophy of “Gravitas & Dynamism,” combining a stable, commanding stance with an energetic, athletic profile. The front face features the evolved “Dynamic Shield,” expressing power through strong horizontal and vertical elements, complemented by an innovative honeycomb-patterned inner grille beneath a transparent acrylic surface. The vehicle’s ruggedness is further emphasized by bold front and rear skid plates, 18-inch wheels, and T-shaped LED lighting that projects a wide, modern profile. Drawing from Mitsubishi’s legendary heritage, the rear design showcases the “Hexaguard Horizon” concept.
A new benchmark in refinement and space
The Destinator delivers a sophisticated balance of space and versatility. Its spacious three-row cabin offers seating for seven people while the second and third-row seats can be folded to unlock massive cargo capacity, supporting everything from daily school and shopping routines to weekend trips.
An immersive, high-tech sanctuary
Inside, this mid-size 7-seater SUV is crafted as a “Confidence Booster for Energetic Families,” offering a spacious, high-quality cabin with a focus on shared comfort.
Key interior highlights include:
Acoustic Excellence: The Dynamic Sound Yamaha Premium system features an eight-speaker setup finely tuned by Yamaha’s “sound meister,” offering four optimized sound modes to ensure a rich, immersive experience for every passenger.
Intuitive Control: A monolithic display integrates a 12.3-inch Smartphone-link Display Audio (SDA) and an 8-inch Digital Driver Display, seamlessly integrated to provide intuitive access to navigation and entertainment.
Customizable Atmosphere: In a first for the Mitsubishi line-up, the Destinator offers 64-color ambient lighting controlled via the SDA, alongside a Panoramic Sunroof that can be adjusted through the screen in five-percent increments.
Intelligent Practicality: The cabin offers generous storage, including seatback tables, Type A and Type C USB ports for every row, and enough luggage space to accommodate four gallon-sized water bottles even when the third-row seats are in use.
