New Mitsubushi Pajaro to debut at Paris show

A new Mitsubishi Pajaro (Montero) will debut at the Paris car show.
At first glance it appears to be all new, but under closer inspection one can see that it shares some items with the outgoing model.

new Mitsubushi PajaroNo word yet as to whether we will see it here in the USA. Even with the precarious situation Mitsubishi is in here, and with the ever increasingly hostile SUV environment, I would still like to see it sold here. I've long been a fan of the Montero, so I would like to see it do well.

Debuting at the Paris Motor Show, this Pajero is the fourth in the series. The latest Pajero offers reliability forged in the crucible of grueling competition and use under the harshest conditions to be found on our planet. It retains the all-round SUV specifications of its predecessor, as seen in its approach angle, ground clearance and other all-terrain performance parameters. New features that distinguish the fourth-generation Pajero include:

• A powertrain applied a new 3.2-liter 4-cylinder diesel with common rail direct fuel injection or a 3.8-liter V6 MIVEC*1 gasoline unit.

• A 4WD system comprised of the sophisticated Super Select 4WD-II transfer case while both ASTC*2 and the rear differential lock available — developed on the bedrock of MMC's All-Wheel-Control (AWC) concept and delivering significant improvements in both off-road and tarmac performance.

• Tastefully designed dashboard and interior complemented by high-end equipment such as Rockford Acoustic Design Premium Sound System™ with a new 860W 12-speaker.
