Their headquarters are based in Amsterdam in the Netherlands, and they have two production facilities, in Born, Netherlands (NedCar) and Turin, Italy. The European design studio Mitsubishi Design Europe (MDE) and the research and development center Mitsubishi R&D Europe (MRDE) are based at Trebur in Germany, while Mitsubishi Motors Motor Sports (MMSP), responsible for the company's record-breaking success in the Dakar Rally, work out of Pont-de-Vaux, France.

Historically, MME has also been responsible for sales within Russia.[2] However, recent economic development have driven sales from less than 50 in 1991 to 57,200 in 2006, with 70,000 anticipated for 2007.[3] It now represents the company's biggest market in Europe, and since 2006 Mitsubishi has treated Russia as a separate market.[4]
