Mitsubishi Bids Farewell To The Pajero With Australia’s 2022 Final Edition Model

Assembled at the Sakahogi plant, in Gifu, Japan, since 2006, the fourth generation Pajero (Shogun) is one of the oldest vehicles still on sale. However, its time is up as Mitsubishi will soon be pulling the plug on it for good.

Before putting to rest, the automaker has announced the 2022 Pajero Final Edition for Australia. 800 units of the famous off-roader will see the light of day, all of them identified by the special ‘Final Edition’ badging, across the GLX, GLS and Exceed trim levels.

The entry-level model brings seating for seven, an infotainment system and reversing camera. 18-inch alloy wheels, rear parking sensors, rain-sensing wipers and dusk-sensing headlights, power adjustable heated front seats and Rockford audio are reserved for the mid-range variant. The top-of-the-line model adds an electric sunroof, leather upholstery, aluminum pedals, and chrome windscreen surround and side protection strip, as well as an alarm.

Mitsubishi has also equipped all of them with a tinted bonnet protector, rear cargo liner, rear boot flap, carpet mats and specially branded leather compendium.

Powering the 2022 Pajero Final Edition Down Under is the same 3.2-liter turbodiesel engine used on the Pajero Final Edition in Japan, two years ago. It offers a total output of 141 kW (192 PS / 189 HP) and 441 Nm (325 lb-ft) of torque, and comes matched to a five-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive system with locking rear differential. The average fuel consumption is rated at 9.1 l/100 km (25.85 mpg US).

Pricing details are available upon reaching out to Mitsubishi, who expects the Final Edition model to “sell fast”.
