“We are happy to welcome Leona as MMM’s brand ambassador. Leona has been involved in many car racing events worldwide and recently gained victory in the Clio Cup China Series as one of the two female drivers during the first race weekend back in March 2016 in Zhuhai, China.
"Leona’s involvement in motorsports proves to be a great platform in which we found something in common with ourselves - producing Mitsubishi rally inspired vehicles that will in return benefit our customers in terms of handling, performance and not forgetting safety as well”, said MMM chief executive officer Tomoyuki Shinnishi.
As a lady in an overwhelmingly male-dominated profession, Chin has proven herself and broken many stereotypes by conquering the motorsports industry.
Leona became more involved in Mitsubishi Motors after her famous "Sales Girl Drifts Customers in Pickup Truck" prank video that garnered more than 7.3mil views on YouTube.
As Mitsubishi Motors’ brand ambassador, she will appear in several campaigns including all types of media, roadshows and social media.
“I am proud of representing Mitsubishi - a strong and prestigious brand with a great motorsports heritage. It was an exciting journey for me last year, as the Triton product ambassador and owner," said Leona.
She is set to appear at the recently introduced locally-assembled Outlander preview roadshow at Mid Valley Megamall, from Sept 27 to Oct 1 from 10.00am-10.00pm.
