2015 Mitsubishi Pajero Sport launched - Bangkok Post
That’s quite a radical-looking SUV . . . This is the all-new Pajero Sport, the much-awaited pickup-based SUV from Mitsubishi to rival the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Ford Everest, Isuzu MU-X and Toyota Fortuner. The Pajero Sport employs many exterior cues from Mitsubishi’s latest design language including the heavily chiseled front end, accentuated wheel arches and tapered rear lights. It sits on the same 2,800mm wheelbase length and has the same width of 1,815mm, but it is 90mm longer at 4,785mm and 35mm shorter in height at 1,805mm for the 4x4 version. Speaking of the 4x4 model, the ground clearance has increased by 13mm to 218mm. Agility is made up by a turning radius reduced to a class-leading 5. 6m. Like before, the Pajero Sport features the brand’s Super Select 4WD which has four settings... Matching the Everest and Fortuner in passive safety are seven airbags, while driver assist technologies in the Pajero Sport include forward collision mitigation, blind spot warning and multi-view monitor systems. The Pajero Sport comes with the 4N15-coded 2. 4-litre diesel-turbo developing 181hp and 430Nm of power and torque. It replaces the 4D56-tagged 2. 5-litre which develops 178hp and 350Nm. The headlines, however, in the Pajero Sport’s drivetrain department is the all-new eight-speed automatic transmission superseding the previous five-speeder. Source: www.bangkokpost.com
