In their positions, Vossenberg and Scarboro will continue to report to Ken Konieczka, MMNA's Senior VP, Sales Operations. The promotions recognize the importance of reinforcing the ongoing relationships with MMNA's dealer partners in their respective regions, the support of increased sales of new Mitsubishi vehicles and the experience of current and future Mitsubishi customers in alignment with the company's recently announced brand-wide Mitsubishi Motors Momentum 2030 plan.

Vossenberg most recently served as Regional Director, Northeast Region, and Scarboro most recently served MMNA as Regional Director, Southeast Region. Their leadership over the past few years has contributed to MMNA's recent growth and success in the U.S. market, helping to pave the way for the Momentum 2030 business and product plans.

Recently announced, Momentum 2030 is defined by four key points:

• A path to electrification

• A path to a modernized retail sales model
• A path to network expansion and sales growth

"I have absolute confidence in their abilities to lead MMNA and our brand evolution into the future. Momentum 2030 is going to happen, and it will happen with the leadership of Jack, Jimmy, and all of the MMNA team."
