Xpander GLX vs GLS vs Cross (2026): Price and Monthly
By Richard Cuagdan, Mitsubishi Sales Executive ·
Quick answer: Xpander GLX vs GLS vs Cross, in short. All four seat seven and use the same 1.5L MIVEC gasoline engine (105 PS, 141 Nm). The GLX MT (₱1,099,000) is the lowest monthly at ₱22,401 with ₱18K DP. The GLX AT (₱1,159,000) adds a 4-speed automatic. The GLS AT (₱1,259,000) is the higher trim, and the Xpander Cross (₱1,378,000) adds a rugged crossover look and a more premium cabin.
The Xpander is the car I'm asked about most on the showroom floor. The question is usually not "Xpander o hindi?" but "Alin sa Xpander?" Here's how the four choices differ, with this month's promo numbers.
Same engine, different packages
Every Xpander and the Xpander Cross share a 1.5L in-line 4 DOHC 16-valve MIVEC gasoline engine with 105 PS and 141 Nm, and seven seats. What changes is the transmission, the trim and the look.

GLX MT: lowest monthly
A 5-speed manual and the lowest price of the four. Great for buyers who already drive manual, want the most seats for the money, or use the car for a small business like school service or deliveries. Note the fuel points freebie is 30K, versus 60K on the automatics.
GLX AT: the practical automatic
Only ₱1,191 more a month than the GLX MT on Option A (lowest DP), and it comes with the 4-speed automatic and 60K fuel. For most families who'll face SJDM to Metro Manila traffic, this is the value automatic.
GLS AT: the higher trim
The GLS is the upper Xpander trim, with more comfort and convenience features than the GLX. It suits buyers who want a nicer daily cabin without moving up to an SUV. Ask me for the spec sheet so you can see the exact GLX vs GLS differences.
Xpander Cross: MPV practicality, SUV style
The Cross keeps the Xpander's seven seats and engine, then adds a rugged crossover look and a more premium cabin, in a two-tone finish. Choose it if styling matters to you and the monthly fits. If you're torn between the Cross and an SUV, read Xpander vs Xpander Cross vs Destinator and Xpander vs Destinator.
