Mitsubishi’s popular Pajero Sport had a facelift and a new model derivative was added in 2021. The Mitsubishi Pajero Sport is a beloved member of the capable SUV club, and it has street credit too. It’s a go-anywhere, conquer-anything seven-seater that’s made a name for itself by offering a value for money product. If you’re thinking that this is just another product upgrade, you’re wrong, it’s so much more than that. With the news that the Pajero will end production in 2021 the Pajero Sport (based on the Triton bakkie) is set to take the helm as the top 4×4 dog in the Mitsubishi stable. The Pajero Sport gets the new Mitsubishi grille, the Dynamic Shield which is the new face of the Mitsubishi brand, symbolising the brand’s tough, prestigious, and legendary (most Dakar wins) heritage. “The new Pajero Sport is extremely important to Mitsubishi Motors and it ticks all the boxes to become our hero model”, says Nic Campbell, General Manager of Mitsubishi Motors South Africa. "It is important to note that Mitsubishi Motors is taking a new direction, focusing on growing market segments – and the new Pajero Sport certainly leads the way for our future.” The Dynamic Shield grille has LED headlamps, daytime running lights and fog lamps, new cornering lights, with chrome detailing. The nose has been raised upping the centre of gravity, improving ride quality and off-road ability. The Pajero Sport has a 30-degree approach angle and 24-degree departure angle, which is the best in its class. The rear gets a thicker bumper and integrated rear diffuser redesigned LED combination lights, park distance control and spoiler as standard. New 18-inch wheel designs will distinguish the Pajero Sport as the top dog in the Mitsubishi stable, and side-steps have been repositioned to improve the visual aesthetic. Standard on all models is a hill-start assist system (HAS), dusk-sensing headlights, rain-sensing windscreen wipers, rear park distance control and a rear-view camera for safer and easier parking. To help keep occupants safe, the Pajero Sport has a variety of safety features including 7 airbags and ISOFIX child seat anchors. All models benefit from active stability and traction control (ASTC), anti-lock braking system (ABS), electronic brake-force distribution (EBD), an emergency brake assist system (BAS), and Mitsubishi’s RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) body construction. The upgraded Pajero Sport at Group 1 Mitsubishi offers Bluetooth with hands-free voice control, coupled to Mitsubishi’s advanced smartphone-link display audio (SDA) connected to a large 8” touch screen. Life is made easier for the driver thanks to a new full-colour digital instrument display, automatic dual-zone air-conditioning throughout the 7-seater cabin, including rear passenger controls, and electric windows all around. All models now have additional USB and additional accessory sockets (dual USB for the rear passengers) and a 220AC 150-Watt power plug with full leather throughout the interior. PAJERO SPORT EXCEED
The ultimate in seven-seat luxury and 4×4 capability the Exceed spec builds on the 4×4 spec adding a power tilt and sliding sunroof, Mitsubishi remote control connectivity via the Mitsubishi app, and an electronic tailgate with dual-kick sensors to open it. TRUSTED RELIABILITY All three derivatives will be powered by the trusted 2.4-litre MIVEC four-cylinder turbo diesel engine, producing 133kW and 430Nm of torque and paired to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The 4×4 Pajero Sports will have Mitsubishi’s Super Select 4WD-II system, a selection of off-road modes including gravel, mud/snow, sand or rock will regulate engine power, throttle response, gearbox settings and braking for superior traction control and off-road performance. The Pajero Sport colour palette has been extended by two hues: White Diamond and Graphite Grey.

Nowadays you can buy virtually anything from the Internet—from simple household products to cars, and even a house! But is purchasing Mitsubishi spare parts from the Internet a smart and sensible decision to make?
If this is your first time buying Mitsubishi parts, then you’ve come to the right place. These top tips will prove useful when buying Mitsubishi spare parts and aftermarket parts online, rather than just from Group 1 Mitsubishi. Tip#1: Check for the store’s genuine parts guarantee and warranty program Never purchase anything from an online spare parts store without a warranty. Mitsubishi car parts, especially accessories and spare parts of limited edition models, can be very expensive. Check the reputation of the auto parts store before you proceed with shopping. Make sure that the store has a physical address and contact number to verify that they are indeed legitimate sellers of genuine Mitsubishi parts online. Read the fine print and carefully assess the rules and conditions of how you are protected by the warranty. Tip#2: Do some window shopping If there are no bricks and mortar shops that sell the Mitsubishi aftermarket parts you need, you may be left with no choice but to shop from the Internet. Although there are reputable names in the aftermarket parts industry, it is your duty as a savvy shopper to check out multiple stores before making an actual purchase. Ideally, choose at least three to four online stores with a comprehensive Mitsubishi aftermarket parts catalogue and then compare prices from there. Tip#3: Consider other applicable fees such as shipping and handling When purchasing Mitsubishi parts online from an Australian supplier, make sure to check the additional fees you incur while shopping. Some companies offer free shipping, whilst others charge premium rates for both local and international shipping. Remember free shipping is not always a good thing. Some online shops will offer free shipping for high-value items or if your purchase is beyond a certain amount. Paying a premium for shipping is an option if you urgently need a spare part. . . .
