mitsubishi pajero sport 2023 review

The 2023 Mitsubishi Pajero Sport is a ladder‑frame bruiser in a tidy suit, happy to bounce over corrugations then queue at school pickup like nothing happened.

Under the bonnet sits a 2.4‑litre turbo‑diesel with 133 kW and 430 Nm, an 8‑speed auto, and (on most trims) the excellent Super Select II 4x4. It’ll tow up to 3,100 kg braked, sip around 8.0 L/100 km on the claim, and offers ~218 mm of clearance with 5 or 7 seats. Ride is firm when empty, the third row is for short legs, and the infotainment is fine unless you’ve met something German and expensive.

New pricing landed roughly mid‑$40k to low‑$60k before on‑roads in 2023, with near‑new examples on Tradingpost often in the $40k–$55k bracket depending on kms and spec. If you want fuss‑free off‑road ability and old‑school toughness, it’s more faithful than flashy.
