Mitsubishi launches new Pajero in Japan with over 5,500 pre-orders
Mitsubishi presented the new Pajero in Japan on October 29, 2026, with sales scheduled to begin on December 17 starting at 6.193 million yen, and more than 5,500 pre-orders already recorded. The off-road SUV returns to a high-rigidity ladder chassis and retains many physical switches, while 80% of its buyers are said to come from competing brands. The launch also fuels expectations around a possible three-door version and an eventual Pajero Junior. The story is covered in Japan, the United States, Vietnam, and France, but the sub-events provided focus on the Japanese market.
