Mitsubishi Pajero Sport VGT_40bhp More and Even More Fun

Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia, the official distributor of Mitsubishi Motors vehicles in Malaysia, recently introduced the new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport VGT. We were flown to Sabah over a weekend to experience this new VGT on some of the most grueling and windy roads Kota Kinabalu had to offer.
There is been negligible changes made to the exterior of this revised Pajero. Even on the inside, only a new 2-Din multimedia system has been installed with street navigation included and a pair of titanium gear-shifters behind the steering wheel. The rest of the Pajero cabin remains and comfort levels on all 3 rows are still good. Mitsubishi have not looked at making this revised Pajero easily noticeable at showroom level and left all the dissemination of its information to its showroom sales people and the motoring media.
Under the hood is where the engineers have really made the difference. Mitsubishi’s proven 2.5-litre Common Rail diesel engine is now fitted with a new powerhouse management that includes Variable Geometry Turbo (VGT), boosting power and torque levels to 178 PS and 350 Nm, respectively. On the back roads up the mountain range, the wide torque band from 1,800 to 3,500 rpm provided strong acceleration and easy flexibility as the new 5-speed automatic transmission (with paddle-shifters borrowed from the Lancer GT) worked well. In ‘Sport Mode’ it was livelier and there was never a moment that this new Pajero felt that it was going to disappoint us. In city driving the VGT is hardly noticeable as the 2.5-liter diesel is a strong engine for low end torque. On the bends and twists of the exterior roads around the Kinabalu mountain range is where the new VGT is easily noticed. The engine management efficiency is also increased for better fuel efficiency with the added gear cog.
Safety features includes dual airbags, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distributor (EBD), Hybrid Limited Slip Differential (LSD) and safety brake pedal to name a few. Standard equipment lists also includes cruise control, auto climate control, and a reverse camera which works with the new 2-din screen. This new Pajero Sport VGT is sold in 4 colours, Black Mica, Cool Silver, White Pearl and Quartz Brown Metallic for RM171, 980 on the road inclusive of insurance. Buyers will enjoy a 3-Years warranty and 2-Years free maintenance package for hassle free ownership experience. To better understand the benefits of the new Pajero VGT a test drive will best confirm its benefits to you.
