Exterior
Pajero Sport uses high-output, longlasting
LEDs for its self-levelling headlights,
tail and brake lights, fog lights, and
Daytime Running Lights for exceptional
visibility and clarity.
White is the standard colour at no
charge, others cost $740 extra, except
White Diamond at $940.
Ride & Handling
Our test car's 2.4L turbo diesel engine
can supply 133kW of power and 430Nm of
torque to its four-wheel drive with an eightspeed
torque-coverter.
Pajero Sport’s “Super Select ll 4WD
system lets you switch between 2WD and
4WD modes at up to 100kmh to adapt to
changing road conditions. Super Select has
four modes to handle everything from
smooth city lanes to hazardous conditions
and extreme terrain with minimal grip
levels, all controlled by a single switch on
the centre console. It has 3,100kg braked
towing capacity.
The Pajero’s ride is mostly tuned for
comfort, in its nature. While steering is
responsive, we found there is a bit of body
roll. Overall it is comfortable on the
freeway and feels safe. Visibility is excellent
out of the cabin.
Mitsubishi claims fuel economy of 8-
litre per 100km. The fuel tank stores 68
litres.
Safety
The all-new Pajero Sport comes with
very comprehensive active and passive
safety features that work in unison,
alternating, guiding, and reactivating to
keep the driver and passengers safe.
Mitsubishi's RISE impact safety body
design and a total of seven SRS airbags
provide occupants with outstanding
passive safety. Active safety features
include the Forward Collision Mitigation
system (FCM), the Blind Spot Warning
system (BSW, a first on a Mitsubishi
model), and the Ultrasonic Mitigation
System (UMS).
It has a five-star rating from ANCAP
(2015).
Service
Mitsubishi offers Australia’s only 10-
Year New Car Warranty with 10 Years
Capped Price Servicing. It is a guarantee
that stands apart from other automotive
manufacturers, and is a commitment to
how well every Mitsubishi is built and
backed.
Services should be completed at 12-
month intervals or every 15,000km,
whichever is first.
The first three years of capped-price

Service 2 $399 and Service 3 $499.
The rest of the seven years; Service 4
$699 Service 5 $499 Service 6 $699
Service 7 $499 Service 8 $999 Service 9
$599 and the 10th Service $699. Total

Verdict
The Pajero Sport GLS is spacious
inside and has the tech for great
infotainment functionality.
It is value for money, especially with
its whopping 10 year/200k km warranty
and capped price service.
Key rivals are the Ford Everest, Toyota
Fortuner and Isuzu MU-X.
