Mitsubishi Montero
Introduced in 1982, the Mitsubishi Montero is a medium to full size SUV by Mitsubishi Motors. It is known as Mitsubishi Pajero in Japan, Mitsubishi Montero in Spain, America (except Brazil) and India and Mitsubishi Shogun in the UK. Sold over 2.9 million until 20 12, this vehicle is now sold in its fourthgeneration iteration. The first two generations were offered as mid-size SUV while the latest generations are offered as full-size SUV. In 1988, a 3.0-litre SOHC V6 engine was made available, alongside a 2.5-litre turbo diesel engine, with the first 4x4 intercooler. This translated to better acceleration in mid to high rev ranges. The long-wheelbase models got a coil link suspension system for better ride comfort and off-road ability.Mitsubishi Montero FAQ's
