Although affordable MPVs<\/a> are not popular in the UAE, a few have managed to find buyers because of their unique traits. In this week\u2019s DubiCompare, we are pitting two such affordable MPVs on sale in the UAE: Mitsubishi Xpander vs Kia Carens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Japanese brands such as Mitsubishi<\/a> have been a popular choice for MPV buyers across the world including the UAE. The Xpander<\/a> has been around for quite some time and offers exceptional reliability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, South Koreans invaded this segment with the Carens<\/a>, a versatile and feature-packed MPV with several engine and gearbox options. Let\u2019s compare these two entirely different MPVs and pick the top choice in our car comparison<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
