Mitsubishi Pajero Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1997–2000) — Second Generation Restyling

Mitsubishi Pajero Engines and Transmissions

The Mitsubishi Pajero engine range spans small gasoline units such as the 1.8 MT and 2.4 MT in the three-door body, plus diesels like the 2.5 AT. Manual gearboxes reward drivers who like control off-road, while the automatic eases city traffic; all-wheel drive underpins the drivetrain.

Mitsubishi Pajero Trims and Equipment

Mitsubishi Pajero trim levels sit on top of a chosen technical version rather than replacing it. The 2.5 MT diesel five-door, for example, appears in GLX form, so two cars with identical mechanicals can differ in comfort features, interior finish and convenience equipment. Check each listing individually.
