  • A warm welcome to everyone tuning in to my latest RUclips video!
    In this review, I share with you my thoughts on the Legendary Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution.
    An extremely rare example and one of only 2500 cars ever made, the Pajero Evolution is a homologation special, produced purely for Mitsubishi to enter the iconic Dakar Rally. Destroying the competition, the Evolution has the most Dakar Rally wins of all time with nine championships under its belt. A true family SUV with an unmatched racing pedigree, what more could you possibly want?
    Thank you to the owner Alan:

    Bought one for the wife 5 yrs ago she gets questions every where she goes.
    If I drove it I would lose my licence so quick. So far it's never gonna be for sale

    Other models had the 3.5 and LSD too. What was exclusive to the Evo was the body kit, suspension and the Mivec engine which came out of a Diamante. The Dakar rally isn't your traditional Rally, it's a race through an open desert.

      They are owned by Nissan as of 2019 influence already started in 2022 models, but just small things so far. But otherwise Mitsubishi is gone. They only sold 120,000 cars in the US last year like less than Toyota sells of one model, mitsubishi sold less adding up all of its models

    You want to sit slightly higher when racing something like the Dakar- it gives you a bit more visibility over dune crests and over rocks and into ruts - since the bonnet/hood is not so obstructive to your vision. This could be the difference between flipping over, or losing a wheel - that could have detrimental effects on your stage.

      No DOHC in local AUS production vehicles only 4valve single cam. The DOHC engine was used NK Pajero but not with MIVEC. NL went to same SOHC engine as magna/verada. I really miss my NL pajero. Mitsubishi bought mine back of me because of an non repairable air bag inflator. Who'd have thought that putting a bomb in the steering wheel would be a problem 20 years down the track.

    Mitsubishi Motors is in serious financial trouble at the moment they have been losing money since the 90s. The board members at Mitsubishi decided to stop make sports cars to focus on making money by only selling SUVs crossovers and small cars. It seems to be working because profit has gone up. This is bad news for car fan this means no more Evos or Ralli Art. R.I.P. 😢
