Mitsubishi Pajero 4x4 3.8 V6 MIVEC and 3.2 D-ID

Every SUV fanatic knows the heritage behind the 7 consecutive and 12 overall winner of the Dakar Rally. Every useful technology from the race is derived and applied into the production model. With the 4th generation Mitsubishi Pajero 4x4, Mitsubishi Motors is very confident to please the most scrutinizing customer.

The new Pajero sports a bolder but cleaner look that exudes class. Starting at the front, a new chrome radiator grille and bumper presents aggressiveness while the High Intensity Discharge headlamps provide better luminance during the night. The hood is not made of sheet metal but of aluminum helping save weight thus returning better fuel economy. The side mirror with defogger also functions as a turn signal indicator and as an approach lamp as courtesy to passengers boarding the vehicle. A new 6-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels shod with 265/65 R17 tires complements its muscular body. At the rear, the Pajero gets also a refreshed treatment with a new spare tire carrier design with integrated rear fog lamp.

Inside, a new all-black dashboard accentuated by wood and silver paneling spans the width of the Pajero. The new dashboard houses the high-visibility, high contrast meter cluster, Multi-Information display that can tell the time, date, elevation, temperature readings, compass, average speed, fuel consumption among others. Also integrated on the new dashboard are the controls and display for the fully automatic climate control and the single in-dash CD/MP3 tuner with Digital Sound Processor and equalizer. The Pajero’s leather-wrapped 4-spoke steering wheels has integrated audio remote and cruise control switches. For convenience, the new Pajero is equipped with illuminated vanity mirrors, illuminated key cylinder, LED ceiling mood lamp, and front foot lamps. The seats are large and wide to easily accommodate 7 adults but can also be configured in a number of ways to fit extremely large and long cargo thanks to the stowable third row seat and fold and tumble second row seats.

Safety features of the new Pajero are top of its class. Major features are the Mitsubishi Active Skid and Traction Control (M-ASTC) which controls engine power and brakes to prevent understeer or oversteer and its ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution acting on the 4-pot front disc brakes and rear disc brakes. The monocoque body frame has been developed under the Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution (RISE) body frame technology helping the occupants withstand various kinds of collisions. The new Pajero is much safer than its predecessor and its competitors with the addition of side and curtain airbags. Also the Pajero has an electro chromic rear view mirror that automatically dims the mirror to prevent glare from the headlamps of ensuing vehicles.

The new Pajero is now available with two more powerful engine options namely the 3.8 liter 6G75 V6 24-valve MIVEC gasoline engine and the Turbocharged and Intercooled 3.2 liter 4M41 16-valve Direct Injection Diesel Common Rail engine. The gasoline variant churns out 250 PS * 6,000 rpm and 22.6 kg-m * 2750 rpm thanks to the MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve Timing Electronic Control) technology, while the diesel version that is fitted with a new Common Rail Injection system produces 165 PS * 3,500 rpm and 38.1 kg-m * 2,000 rpm. Both engines transfer power through a 5-speed INVECS-II with Sportronic plus it is mated to a high tech four wheel drive system called the Super Select II. The Super Select II system allows the driver to shift from 2 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive and vice versa even without stopping. A refined version of the 4-wheel independent suspension is adopted from the previous model to provide excellent roadholding capability and ride comfort.

The new Pajero which is completely imported from Japan, measures 4900mm x 1875mm x 1870mm (LxWxH) and it is available in the following colors: Rio Grande White, Congo Silver, Riviera Green, Amazon Red, and Mongolia Black.
