Taking the opportunity of the 100,000th customer celebration, Yang presented an appreciation gift to 31-year old Lee Ju Hin from Kuching for being the 100,000th customer in Mitsubishi Motors authorized showroom Jimisar Autotrade in Kuching, Sarawak.
Lee, a proud owner of the all-new Mitsubishi Triton Adventure said, “I am delighted and proud to be Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia’s 100,000th customer. The Mitsubishi Triton has a sporty design, value for money for its premium features and good handling compared to other pick-up trucks I’ve tested. My Mitsubishi Triton will be used for driving long distance and also to rural areas which normal passenger cars cannot go through. Besides that, I will also be using the pick- up truck for going off-road with my family and friends.”
Yang added, “With this milestone of 100,000 unit sales, MMM will continue to provide our Malaysian customers with models that offer greater value and driving excitement.”
