The Maxus MIFA 7 Elite is a purpose-built, all-electric, family-friendly people-mover of the future

The Maxus MIFA 7 Elite enters Singapore’s bustling 7-seater segment with a clear goal of offering families a purpose-built electric MPV, and not simply a vehicle with seven seats.

Did you know that MPVs account for around 20% all new cars sold? And of that figure, nearly half are electric? The MIFA 7 Elite is here to provide this growing audience with a car that meets the expectations of even the most discerning Singaporean families.

As more families turn to MPVs instead of sedans or SUVs, the expectations of a 7-seater have also evolved. It’s no longer just about having enough seats, but how well those seats, and the space around them, work in everyday life. This is where the MIFA 7 Elite distinguishes itself as a purpose-built electric MPV, rather than just a car with some extra seats bolted in.

And for a family-friendly MPV, practicality starts with accessibility. Powered sliding doors come as standard, an often-overlooked feature that makes a meaningful difference in tight carparks and busy drop-offs, where conventional doors can be limiting. A low step-in height and flat floor design further improve usability, especially when managing young children or elderly passengers. 

Individual captain's chairs provide enhanced comfort for your passengers.

The cabin also features enough space to easily walk between the two captain’s chairs in the middle, allowing passengers to move between the second and third rows without the need to fold away the middle row. It’s a small but significant touch that improves everyday convenience substantially, and not a feature that all 7-seater layouts are able to offer.

Speaking of seats, the MIFA 7 Elite’s interior is laid out in a 2-2-3 seating configuration, complete with the aforementioned second-row captain’s chairs, creating a spacious and more comfortable cabin. The generous, best-in-class headroom and legroom mean that even the third row is properly usable for adults, making longer journeys more comfortable for everyone on board. There are also three ISOFIX-compatible seats, allowing up to three child seats to be securely mounted.

The same family-first thinking extends to cargo space. With 280 litres of boot capacity available even with all seats in place, and up to 760 litres available with the third row folded, the MIFA 7 Elite adapts easily to everything from daily school runs to bulkier grocery hauls or weekend trips, all without compromising on passenger space. A plethora of storage cubbies placed throughout the cabin also helps to keep smaller items neatly organised.

The interior is clean and uncluttered, with a 12.3-inch centre display providing easy access to all of the car's functions.

Being fully electric, the MIFA 7 Elite offers a smooth and quiet driving experience well-suited to the urban landscape of Singapore. Still, with its 77kWh battery providing up to 550km of range on the WLTP city cycle, the MIFA 7 is capable of not just being convenient for daily use, but flexible enough for family trips across the border, too. Up to 120kW of fast charging capability also allows for juicing up from 20% to 80% state-of-charge in just 30 minutes.

Features such as wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, voice control, smartphone integration, and an upgraded 360° camera, all fitted as standard, add to the creature comforts and enhance overall ease of ownership.

Perhaps most importantly, the MIFA 7 Elite falls under the Category A COE bracket, with the car retailing for just $189,999* including COE. For families comparing their options, the competitively-priced MIFA 7 Elite presents one of the most compelling combinations of space, comfort, practicality, and value-for-money.

As a bonus, buyers are entitled to a 10-year battery warranty for peace of mind throughout their ownership experience. Buyers will also receive the Cycle & Carriage Assurance Package, which comprises complimentary value-added services like grooming, air-conditioning servicing, panel resprays, and pre-LTA inspections, on top of an islandwide service network.
