Right On Point
SA4x4|October 2017

Although the previous Pajero Sport was getting long in the tooth, Mitsubishi’s latest offering is set to stick it to the Everest and Fortuner with a combination of new tech, safety features, style and capability.

Right On Point

The vehicle has been completely redesigned from the ground up, and is based on the ladder frame of the latest Triton bakkie.

Capability and drivetrain

Like the Triton, the Pajero Sport uses a heavily turbocharged 2.4-litre diesel mill, in this case with 133kW and 430Nm. Unlike the Triton with its five-speed auto, the Sport uses an Aisin 8-speed auto, and, thanks to that quick-shifting box, a low fuel-consumption of 8 litres/100km is made possible. The low-range transfer box enables it to tackle the slowest climbs.
