Fourth-generation Pajero.
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(TM) with a new 860W 12-speaker.
This latest Pajero is to be produced at Pajero Manufacturing
Co., Ltd. in Gifu Prefecture, Japan. MMC plans to start
shipments to Europe in September, followed by shipments in Japan
and to Australia in October.
