Dual-tone Mitsubishi Pajero Sport launched

Mitsubishi has launched a dual tone version of the Pajero Sport in India. Hindustan Motors Finance Corporation Ltd. (HMFCL), the distrubuters of Mitsubishi in India, have launched this edition to woo customers and are cashing in on the opportunity during this festive season. The Pajero Sport is offered two new shades: Flame Red-White, and Lemon Yellow-White, and commands a premium of Rs 50,000 over the standard car which is priced at Rs 23.50 lakh, ex-showroom Delhi.

Recalling Mitsubishi’s rugged Pajero SFX, the Pajero Sport gets a few more goodies like a DVD player, a cooler box in the boot, and ORVMs with integrated turn indicators. There aren’t any other mechanical or cosmetic changes with the new model and it is powered by the same 2.5-litre four-cylinder diesel engine that develops a healthy 176bhp at 4000rpm and 400Nm of peak torque between 2,000 rpm and 2,500 rpm. The engine comes mated to a five-speed manual gearbox that channels drive to all of the four wheels via a standard 4WD system.

Unlike other festive launches that are available for a limited period of time, the Pajero Sport dual-tone will be available for sale even after.
