Mitsubishi sees future in SUVs, next Montero to be cheaper, hybrid Land Rover - LeftLane News

Apparently, the next Mitsubishi Pajero (aka Montero in North America, Shogun in the UK) will continue to revel in its true body-on-frame construction as the company positions itself as a company with SUVs as one of its core foci. Mitsubishi believes that true body-on-frame SUVs are a dying breed and that there is an opening for the company which has won the backbreaking Dakar Rally 12 times with previous iterations of the Pajero. Furthermore, Mitsubishi believes that the Pajero will have another edge with its plug-in hybrid technology, as previewed by the GC-PHEV Concept shown in Tokyo and Chicago. With the next Evo said to be taking the form an SUV , it appears Mitsubishi is gunning for the electric and off-roading segments. Source: www.leftlanenews.com
