Mitsubishi Pajero to receive 20 factory accessories for the Australian outback
The new Mitsubishi Pajero will arrive at Australian dealerships next month with 20 original off-road, towing, and body protection accessories.
Mitsubishi Motors Australia has prepared a factory accessory program for the new Pajero, developed with the conditions of the Australian outback in mind. It includes a steel front bull bar with or without upper sections, headlight, hood, and underbody protection, side steps, a snorkel, additional LED lights, and a roof rack.
The front bull bar covers the entire front of the vehicle and protects the radiator grille and headlights from road debris and minor collisions. The design ensures it does not interfere with the operation of driver assistance system sensors. For towing, a tow hitch with reinforced mounting to the ladder-frame chassis, trailer wiring and electric brake harnesses, and a weight distribution hitch are provided. A separate platform is designed for installing a heavy-duty winch.
The program was developed with early access by the Australian team to the vehicle’s CAD data and in collaboration with local companies. As a result, the Pajero’s design already includes mounting points and wiring for protective equipment and towing devices.
The new Pajero is built on the ladder-frame platform from the Triton pickup but features its own suspension tuning. The turbo-diesel engine delivers 201 hp and 480 Nm of torque, while the automatic transmission transfers power to all wheels via Mitsubishi’s all-wheel-drive system.
In Australia, the vehicle is priced from 47,500 dollars for the five-seat GLS version and up to 59,000 dollars for the top-tier GSR. The cost of accessories will be announced later. Early orders include three years of servicing and $1,000 worth of accessories.
