Discontinued in 2021, the Pajero will be back this fall.
Mitsubishi is turning the Pajero into a series of models.
The Pajero will also be badged as a Montero in certain markets.
The rumors were true. Mitsubishi is officially bringing back the Pajero name, which was last used in 2021. Debuting this fall, the all-new SUV will be a proper off-roader on a ladder frame derived from the Triton pickup truck. At the same time, the Japanese automaker confirmed the return of another familiar name: Montero. That gives us hope the Pajero will be sold in North America with Montero badging.
Mitsubishi has even greater plans for one of its most iconic nameplates. Pajero won’t be used strictly for a single model but rather an entire series of vehicles. The company’s product roadmap, released today, reveals that at least two additional Pajero-based models are in the works.
