HM Launching Mitsubishi Pajero Sport In Next Fiscal

By Ajinkya

Hindustan Motors will be launching the Pajero Sport with an automatic transmission next fiscal. It was announced during an annual general body meeting.

The Pajero Sport came to India in early 2012 through the CBU route. However, HM soon began locally assembling the SUV at its Tiruvallur plant close to Chennai.

The Pajero Sport is available in a 2.5-liter diesel engine, which is paired to a 5-speed manual transmission. The SUV produces 178 bhp and 400 Nm of torque. The car also features Mitsubishi's Super Select
4WD system.

Last July an anniversary edition of the Pajero Sport was launched. The Outlander, Cedia Sports and Evo X have been discontinued for Indian market. Mitsubishi currently offers only the Pajero Sport and Montero in India.

India will get the Pajero Sport Automatic with the 'INVCS-II 5 speed auto with sportronic', mated to the same diesel engine. The car is already on sale in Thailand.

Mitsubishi plans to launch the 2014 Outlander, along with the Pajero Sport Automatic for India this year.
