Mitsubishi Pajero Sport - A complete change

Continuing to exploit the strengths of the off-road vehicle line that inherited historical successes at the Dakar race, Mitsubishi Vietnam took another step forward by bringing in the new Pajero Sport model with Dynamic Shield design and especially the 3.0L MIVEC gasoline engine along with many supporting equipment.

Radical change

Not to be left behind by its predecessors, the new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport has caught up with the complete change in exterior design with the Dynamic Shield design language; youthful, sporty, angular and equally powerful.

The exterior of the new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport has been completely changed; the front of the car has a stylized spindle design with many strong lines, the air intake with sturdy chrome bars surrounding the three-leaf logo makes this detail more impressive, the headlight cluster is not only seamless with the air intake above, but more than that, is connected to the lower grille which is placed quite reasonably so as not to overwhelm the solidity of the front bumper. This design (stylized spindle shape) is not only shown on the exterior but also appears a lot inside the car, in the design of the steering wheel, the control panel in the front row...

The new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport has dimensions of 4,785 x 1,815 x 1,805 mm (length, width, height), with a minimum turning radius of 5.6 m.

The vehicle has an unladen weight of 1,875 - 1,975 kg (depending on version) and a fuel tank capacity of 70L.

At the rear, the change is so drastic that it is no longer recognizable as a Mitsubishi Pajero Sport if you do not look at the logo and the name placed modestly on the left; the entire rear design of the car focuses on the impressive taillight cluster that extends along the height of the car; this design is not affected by the tailgate, but rather, extends to the two sides to increase the visibility of vehicles on both sides when the Pajero Sport turns on the signal lights. A design with the power of a "hammer" with extremely high visual effect.

Power comes from the MIVEC engine

The biggest change to the new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport is the appearance of an 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters on the steering wheel, a really useful device for operating an SUV on difficult terrain. The transmission helps to operate smoothly, save fuel while the paddle shifters help you still focus on steering with both hands and actively change gears without taking your hands off the steering wheel.

Along with this new equipment, a series of modern safety features have also been officially equipped by Mitsubishi on the new Pajero Sport, bringing many competitive advantages in this segment; Super Select II electronic gear system, four specialized off-road driving modes with pre-installed operating parameters (for gravel, rock, sand, mud/snow terrain), electronic balance system and ASTC traction control...

In particular, the anti-unintended acceleration system is an equipment that no competitor in the same segment has; the car uses front/rear ultrasonic sensors to detect obstacles, thereby reducing engine power, limiting accidents in cases of mistakenly stepping on the gas pedal or mistakenly shifting into reverse gear...

Electronic gear system and driving modes suitable for different types of terrain.

Meanwhile, in addition to these safety features, a series of other smart electronic devices are also "generously" equipped by Mitsubishi as standard equipment for the new Pajero Sport, devices that new high-end passenger cars have; blind spot warning system, electronic handbrake system, push-button start system with smart key, panoramic camera to support observation around the car in cases of reversing or avoiding obstacles, hill start assist system and downhill assist system... devices that if you are a driving enthusiast, you will spend quite a bit of "effort" to discover; however, if you master these devices, your driving inspiration will definitely be raised to a new level.

The new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport has quite good sound insulation, noise level at idle (engine speed 800 rpm) measured at positions in the cockpit, front of the car and in the engine compartment.

In addition to major design changes, a notable point that any consumer will notice is that instead of assembling domestically, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport models with Dynamic Shield design have been imported from Thailand - the region's manufacturing center, a new start for driving inspiration.
