The all new Pajero Sport is a new generation mid-sized SUV developed to a 'Stylish & Comfortable Off-road SUV' concept. A full feature off-road SUV inheriting the best of the Pajero brand, the all new Pajero Sport brings with it a refined and high-quality exterior design, high-performance and a comfortable interior, environmental performance on a par with the best in its class, and a comprehensive advanced safety features.
In its appearance, the all new Pajero Sport uses the MMC's new 'Dynamic Shield' front face design concept, a further evolution of the design nurtured in successive models of the Pajero series. The all new Pajero Sport is powered by a 2.4-litre MIVEC turbodiesel engine (first for a Pajero Sport). Mated to a new eight-speed automatic transmission (first for a Mitsubishi model) developed for the all new Pajero Sport, this powertrain returns a 17 percent improvement in fuel economy over its predecessor. Handling stability, ride and quietness have all been improved through optimisation of the suspension and improvements to the body mounts.
The all new Pajero Sport comes with a very comprehensive active and passive safety features. Mitsubishi's own RISE impact safety body design and a total of seven SRS airbags provide occupants with outstanding passive safety. Active safety features include Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM), the Blind Spot Warning system (BSW, a first on a Mitsubishi model) and the Ultrasonic Mitigation System (UMS).
The all new Pajero Sport uses a new version of Mitsubishi's own Super-Select 4WD-II four-wheel drive system. This is complemented by the new Off-road Mode (first on a Mitsubishi model), which gives even better all-terrain performance and stability as the road surface requires, and by Hill Descent Control (first on a Mitsubishi model). Together with its greater wading depth, all these features combine to provide the kind of bad road or flooded surface performance only to be found in the Pajero brand.
