Mitsubishi To Launch New Pajero In India Before March End




The next-generation Pajero is expected to be unveiled in the first quarter of 2012. Mitsubishi had initially planned to launch this all-new SUV at the Auto Expo in January. However, the plans had to be rescheduled due to disruptions caused by unexpected floods in Thailand. Mr. Manoj Jha, Managing Director of Hindustan Motors (HM), which makes and markets Mitsubishi Motors Corporation’s range of vehicles here in India, said, “We had decided to launch Pajero as well as new variants from the HM stable at the Auto Expo 2012 in New Delhi. However, some dislocation of operations at Mitsubishi Motors’ Thailand facility due to natural calamity and unexpected events compelled us to alter our plans for participation in the auto show.”


The new Pajero is an entirely different SUV from the current Pajero, which has gotten pretty long in the tooth. For a start, the new model looks a lot more modern and appealing. The insides are equally impressive too; the car is expected to be feature-rich with quality bits and pieces all-round. The large cabin with seating for 7 will offer comfortable as well as flexible configuration that will allow easy loading of luggage as and when required. 


Given the old Pajero’s off-road heritage, the new model promises to be an enthusiast’s delight when it comes to mud-plugging or driving over rough terrain.
