In addition to its kei lineup, Mitsubishi Motors is also popular for SUVs like the Triton, Outlander PHEV, Eclipse Cross, and Delica D:5.

Among Mitsubishi Motors’ commercials, there are many that sparked conversation with people asking, “Whose song is that?”

Recently, beyond popular Japanese tracks and classic Western hits, many commercials have also featured original songs written specifically for the ads.

In this article, we’ll introduce the songs used in Mitsubishi Motors’ commercials.

So without further ado, let’s take a look at what kind of music has been featured in Mitsubishi Motors’ ads!

[2026] Mitsubishi Motors commercial songs: A treasure trove of classic Western hits (51–60)

Mitsubishi Motors eK Custom “Cool eK: Western” version

Original song

When it comes to kei cars produced by Mitsubishi, the eK series comes to mind.

Among these easy-to-drive kei cars, the eK Custom is the one that pursues a cooler, more stylish look.

With the keyword “Kakko-eK,” the commercial features Takeru Sato dressed sharply in a suit showing off his dance moves—resulting in a very cool ad! The song used in the CM perfectly matches the image the manufacturer wants to promote for the car: it’s also cool and sophisticated.

It seems to be an original track written specifically for the commercial, and the crisp, sharp guitar sound is fantastic, isn’t it?
