2021 Mitsubishi Pajero Sport pricing and specs detailed: Ford Everest, Isuzu MU-X and Toyota Fortuner rival gets smaller range

The Pajero Sport is now available in fewer variants.

Mitsubishi Australia has reshuffled the Pajero Sport’s range for MY21, with one of the large SUV’s variants axed, while pricing for the remaining ones has increased and decreased alongside standard equipment.

With the GLS five-seat ($51,490 plus on-road costs) no more, the Pajero Sport now consists of three variants: the entry-level GLX five-seat ($47,990), mid-range GLS seven-seat ($52,490) and flagship Exceed seven-seat ($57,690).

Of note, the GLX five-seat and Exceed seven-seat are now $500 dearer, while the GLS seven-seat’s pricing is down $250.

The update sees the GLX five-seat gain adaptive cruise control, while it also adds satellite navigation to the GLS seven-seat.

That said, the GLS seven-seat no longer features leather upholstery and power-adjustable front seats, with it getting cloth and manual adjustment instead. However, they now form part of its new Deluxe option package, which also includes surround-view cameras.

Meanwhile, the Exceed seven-seat’s standard specification carries over.

No matter the variant, the Ford Everest, Isuzu MU-X and Toyota Fortuner rival is powered by a 133kW/430Nm 2.4-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine, which is mated to an eight-speed torque-converter automatic transmission and a four-wheel-drive system.

Justin’s dad chose to miss his birth because he wanted to watch Peter Brock hopefully win Bathurst, so it figures Justin grew up to have a car obsession, too – and don’t worry, his dad did turn up in time after some stern words from his mum. That said, despite loving cars and writing, Justin chose to pursue career paths that didn’t lend themselves to automotive journalism, before eventually ending up working as a computer technician. But that car itch just couldn’t be scratched by his chipped Volkswagen Golf R (Mk7), so he finally decided to give into the inevitable and study a Master of Journalism at the same time. And even with the long odds, Justin was lucky enough to land a full-time job as a motoring journalist soon after graduating and the rest, as they say, is history. These days, Justin happily finds himself working at CarsGuide during the biggest period of change yet for the automotive industry, which is perhaps the most exciting part of all. In case you’re wondering, Justin begrudgingly sold the Golf R (sans chip) and still has plans to buy his dream car, an E46 BMW M3 coupe (manual, of course), but he is in desperate need of a second car space – or maybe a third.
