Mitsubishi Motors has officially raised the standard for SUVs in Jamaica with the introduction of the all-new Destinator, unveiled on February 25 at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel. 

The 1.5L turbo-powered SUV, anchored in the theme ‘Where to next?‘, delivers a confident combination of performance, technology, comfort, and style. Designed to meet the needs of drivers seeking versatility, capability, and a premium driving experience, the Destinator transitions effortlessly between city streets, weekend getaways, and long-distance journeys.

The launch offered guests an in-depth look at the Destinator’s features, including a 12.3-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, multi-colour ambient lighting, a premium Yamaha sound system, panoramic sunroof, three-zone air-conditioning, wireless charging, foldable rear tables, integrated cooler, and power-seat assister. With 18-inch alloy wheels, daytime running lights, and a drive mode selector, the SUV delivers both style and adaptability.

Mitsubishi Motors, distributed locally by Stewart’s Automotive Group, continues to strengthen its presence in Jamaica with vehicles engineered for confidence, comfort, and modern living.

“The introduction of the Destinator marks an important milestone for Mitsubishi in Jamaica and for Stewart’s Automotive Group as its authorised distributor,” said Duncan Stewart, managing director, Stewart’s Automotive Group. “At Stewart’s, our commitment to excellence extends across every brand within our portfolio, and Mitsubishi is a strong reflection of that standard. The Destinator embodies the innovation, performance, and quality today’s drivers expect, and we are proud to bring a vehicle of this calibre to the Jamaican market. It reinforces our role in delivering globally engineered products supported by trusted local expertise.”

Bold in stance and modern in design, the Destinator balances sophistication with practicality. Advanced driver-assistance technologies include forward collision mitigation, adaptive cruise control, blind spot warning, lane keep assist, rear cross traffic alert, a 360-degree camera system, parking sensors, and a hands-free powered tailgate.

“Road safety remains a serious issue in Jamaica, with thousands of accidents and hundreds of fatalities recorded annually,” said Franz Lawrence, brand sales manager, Mitsubishi Jamaica. 

“While no technology can replace responsible driving, advanced driver-assistance systems can play a meaningful role in reducing risk. The Destinator’s driver-assistance systems are designed to provide earlier warnings, greater visibility, and enhanced support in critical moments. By integrating features that help drivers avoid collisions, maintain lane discipline, and detect surrounding vehicles, we are contributing to a safer driving environment and reinforcing Mitsubishi’s commitment to protecting lives on our roads,” he added.

Supported by partners including Allied Insurance Brokers, Scotiabank, Stewart Finance, and Rubis, the launch reflected the collaborative ecosystem behind the Mitsubishi ownership experience in Jamaica.

As part of Stewart’s Automotive Group’s portfolio, Mitsubishi continues to strengthen its presence in the SUV market, offering a vehicle that combines prestige, practicality, and advanced technology.
