Overview

The Mifa 9 was previewed by the Maxus Mifa concept presented at the Auto Shanghai in April 2021, showing the concept of a large, luxurious van with all-electric drive.[1] The production model called Maxus Mifa 9 made its official debut in November 2021 at Auto Guangzhou, being the largest and most luxurious electric vehicle of the Maxus brand.[2]

Visually, the Mifa 9 is distinguished by a massive, two-color painted silhouette with a regular body shape with full LED lighting. The rear lamps were decorated with three-arm lamps, dominating the body in both width and length. The luxuriously arranged passenger cabin has space for 6 separate seats with a full range of adjustments.[3]

Production and sales of Mifa 9 began right after the November debut, in the mainland Chinese market. Moreover, Maxus also plan to start selling the vehicle on selected markets of Western Europe, including the United Kingdom.[4]
