The Mitsubishi Pajero is a mid-size SUV and the flagship model of Mitsubishi’s vehicle lineup. First presented in 1976 at the Tokyo Motor Show, it was marketed under different model names depending on the region: Montero in Spain, India, and the Americas (excluding Brazil), and Shogun in the United Kingdom.
