11 Times Dakar Champion - A 9,000Km race over the most inhospitable, treacherous terrain in the world, the Dakar rally is the pinnacle of off-road racing. Even to finish is no mean feat. To actually win 11 times, that’s pure Pajero class.

It's this testing ground that has seen Pajero race ahead of its competitors and fine tune the technology and toughness that has made it what it is today the king off-road. Going into the outback or taking the kids to school, the flexible passenger and cargo options ensure that everyone travels in safety and comfort.

Pajero delivers gutsy power with a choice of engines. The surprisingly quiet, newly engineered 3.2L Common Rail turbo-charged diesel engine gives you muscle on demand. And at an awesome 184kW, the 3.8L V6 MIVEC engine is 23% more powerful then its successor and provides better fuel efficiency and lower emissions.

With 'Sports Mode', the transmission computer monitors the engine speed to prevent potentially damaging gearshifts, while allowing drivers to manually shift gears without using a clutch. The advantage is clutch-free operation that reduces rev and torque loss. The result - control and flexibility of a manual with the ease and convenience of an auto.

Engineered for superior drive comfort, Pajero Exceed features a sophisticated in-dash Multi-Media system. This includes Satellite Navigation with a route trace function, DVD, CD, MP3 and a rear reversing camera. Back seat passengers can also enjoy their own independent DVD entertainment with full colour screen, remote control and infra-red headphones.

MATT(Mitsubishi All Terrain Technology), incorporates the following advances systems: Active Stability Control; Active Traction Control; Super Select 11; Multi-Mode Anti-lock Braking System; Electronic Brakeforce Distribution; Rear diff lock (optional); Hill Hold Assist and Mitsubishi Body Optimized  Suspension.

Pajero comfortably seats 5 large adults, with third row seats to allow for 7 people. The third row seats can be completely removed, or simply fold and store under the floor to maximize your storage space.

Mitsubishi’s RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) system is a one-piece rigid shell originally designed to withstand the punishing ups and downs of the world’s toughest rally, the Dakar. The super-strength cabin and impact-absorbing crush zones have been engineered to cocoon and protect occupants in the event of an accident.
