For some people who are aware of the alliance between the Renault-Nissan group and the Mitsubishi Motor Corporation (MMC), the presence of Livina, which is identical to the Xpander, is certainly not surprising.
The All New Nissan Livina is indeed made on the same platform as the Xpander, but he doesn't agree that Livina is equated with the MPV made by Mitsubishi. That when on the market Xpander will instead become one of its competitors.
But don't talk about Livina with her twins first, but actually there are old players in the LMPV class who are quite equal, namely Honda Mobilio.
Indeed, Honda Mobilio has also undergone some changes, but unfortunately it is still very minor. The lack of updates that have occurred in Honda Mobilio, it seems that the map of competition in the LMPV class is somewhat dubious for Honda Mobilio. Will the LMPV with the H logo remain in demand amidst the onslaught of its closest competitor, the Nissan Livina?
