Mitsubishi has released the first teaser photo of the all-new Pajero Sport SUV (known as the Montero Sport and Challenger in some markets).

The all-new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport wasn’t exactly a secret as far as the design is concerned, given that patent images have already surfaced on the internet. The teaser image appears to match what we’ve seen in the patent photos.

Based on the recently-unveiled L200 pickup truck, the new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport will debut at the Bangkok International Grand Motor Sale on August 1.

While Mitsubishi hasn’t revealed the engine lineup yet, the new SUV should be offered with similar engines as the L200. Depending on the market, it could get the new 2.4-liter turbo diesel available in two states of tune (154PS and 181PS), as well as a 2.5-liter turbo diesel offered with 128PS and 178PS, respectively. A 128PS 2.4-liter gasoline engine may also be available.
