Along with a teaser image, Mitsubishi Thailand has also posted a short 14sec teaser video on its YouTube channel. As with most teasers, a lot has been kept concealed, however the new Pajero Sport appears to feature a grille with bolder chrome trim as well as a more aggressive lower section much like the new Triton pickup truck.
The current-generation Mitsubishi Pajero Sport was first launched in Thailand back in 2015, and immediately became one of the hottest-selling nameplates in its segment. The Pajero is offered with a 2.4 liter four-cylinder turbodiesel engine that churns out 180 hp and 430 Nm of torque, and comes matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission, with 2WD and AWD versions available.
