The Dynamic Shield front face design concept has been further developed to incorporate an integrated shield that extends from the sides, offering additional protection to the cabin. Furthermore, the body colour of the D:X Concept is a luxurious glamping-inspired copper with a new semi-gloss texture. The car features a raked front windscreen, moonroof, LED laser projector headlights, mud-terrain tires, and rugged black plastic flares at each wheel.
As for the interior, the car features a monobox interior design that provides ample room for all occupants, with panoramic seats that rotate and move up and down, offering an open, wide field of vision. The car is equipped with six captain seats with 2+2+2 configuration. An AI concierge provides information such as routes, weather conditions, and more.
The vehicle's sound system, developed in partnership with Yamaha Corporation, provides immersive, three-dimensional sound through numerous strategically placed speakers.
Although the carmaker has not disclosed detailed specifications, the D:X Concept employs the S-AWC (Super - All Wheel Controller) integrated vehicle dynamics control system for the electric 4WD system, focusing on ensuring a safe, secure, and comfortable ride in various weather and road conditions. Despite its high-profile monobox design, the Mitsubishi D:X Concept has been designed to provide the ride of a standard passenger vehicle.
