Mitsubishi Pajero Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1999–2005) — Third Generation

The third-generation Mitsubishi Pajero moved to a monocoque body with a built-in ladder frame, offered as a long five-door wagon and a shorter three-door. It kept genuine off-road ability while feeling far more civilised on the road.

Mitsubishi Pajero Engines and Transmissions

Buyers could choose between diesel and petrol character. A 2.5 MT diesel five-door with manual gearbox and all-wheel drive favours torque and economy, while the 3.0 petrol Mitsubishi Pajero engine, in 3.0 AT or 3.0 MT form, revs more smoothly. Every version drives all four wheels through a selectable four-wheel-drive system.

Mitsubishi Pajero Trims and Equipment

Equipment packages sit on top of the mechanical version rather than replacing it. The 2.5 MT diesel, for instance, was sold in GLX form, a well-rounded specification covering everyday comfort needs. Mitsubishi Pajero trim levels varied by market, so check each car's actual equipment instead of assuming the badge alone.
