Maxus Philippines has joined the expanding SUV market with the introduction of D60, a compact SUV that is expected to become one of its major growth drivers.
Maxus Philippines President Felipe Estrella said the competitive Philippine SUV market will need to make room stressing that the “D60 signals our serious intent to take the compact SUV to the “MAX” in design, functionality, performance, comfort, and safety.”
He said that the launch of Maxus D60 will be a refreshing model and provide a confident-looking model in the domestic SUV market.
“The D60 is what every young and active urban professional expects to see, and feel, in a compact SUV. But because it’s a Maxus, these expectations are well exceeded. The bold and dynamic design perfectly suits modern lifestyle trends, while the power, performance, comfort, and safety features keep its owners and passengers ahead of the curve,” Estrella said.
