New Pajero, Triton models

The company has also increased the line-up of its Triton pickup with three special models. 

The Pajero Sport Benzene, priced at Bt1.295 million, is powered by a V6 motor capable of producing 219hp at 6,250rpm and 280Nm at 4,000rpm. The engine is mated to a 5-speed INVECS II automatic transmission. 

Mitsubishi Motors Thailand president Nobuyuki Murahashi said the Pajero Sport V6 was first displayed at this year’s Bangkok International Motor Show. He said Mitsubishi decided to offer this model due to the large amount of interested customers. 

Standard features include dual front airbags, a navigation system, cruise control, paddle gear shifters, DVD player with Bluetooth, a rain sensor, automatic headlamps with washers, a rear-view back-up camera, 17-inch alloy wheels and a package of security and comfort functions such as automatic headlamp shut-off and courtesy light delay. 

Meanwhile, there are three new Triton pickup models being offered. 

The diesel-powered Triton Mega Cab Plus 2.5 (178hp and 350Nm) with 5-speed automatic gearbox is priced at Bt738,000. The Triton Mega Cab Plus 2.4 and the Double Cab 2.4, priced at Bt643,000 and Bt627,000 respectively, are fitted with 4-cylinder gasoline engines producing 128hp and 194Nm, which are compatible with E20 gasohol.
