According to Mitsubishi, the April launch of its plug-in electric hybrid vehicle (PHEV), the Mitsubishi Outlander, contributed to its sales success.
The company added that other models were also performing well, with the Shogun and Outlander both witnessing triple-digit increases at 425% and 110%, respectively.
Lance Bradley, managing director of Mitsubishi Motors in the UK, said: "So far 2014 has been fantastic."
He pointed to 2013 as "the start of a period of strong growth" for the company, and added: "With significantly increased marketing investment, the recruitment of a lot more dealers and the launch of exciting new models our growth is set to continue for the foreseeable future."
