Mitsubishi lays out Australian demands for new Pajero

Mitsubishi Australia says it pressed its parent company for specific features on the fifth-generation Pajero during development. Product strategy manager Rod Pinedo said the local division sought wider cabin space and relocated child restraint top-tether points, which now sit on the second-row seatbacks. The new model is 110mm wider than the Pajero Sport. Ride and handling were also tuned with Australian input. The Pajero is due in showrooms in December 2026, priced from $68,490 before on-road costs.

It will allow drivers to use voice commands for functions such as air conditioning. GM also plans to use AI to halve its four- to five-year vehicle development time and expand its eyes-off highway driving technology to more popular models.
