Not all large, luxurious family-sized 4x4s have to be pretend off-roaders, really more tarmac-orientated. Here's a five or seven-seater contender that really can cut it when the going gets rough and has a proper 4x4 heritage with a badge you can trust in this sector. This fourth generation Mitsubishi Shogun offers loads of space, decent value for money and an unstoppable feel and we look at it here in the improved form which launched in 2012 and formed the basis for the car which continued to sell until 2019. Though a Shogun can't match the road-going prowess and interior class of German large SUV rivals, it's more practical than any of them. Authentic, capable and very tough, it'll probably out-last you.
History
Mitsubishi likes to see its Shogun as the 'original' large 4x4, an SUV tough enough to venture where others feared to tread, yet offering the interior luxury of a high-end saloon. Back in 1982 when it was first launched, it was the only real option for those unwilling to stretch up to a Range Rover and sold in prodigious numbers until the Nineties arrived along with a host of new rivals, nearly all prioritising a smoother roadgoing experience. It took until the new millennium for the Shogun to make any real attempt to sharpen up its act on tarmac and even then, it continued to buck the luxury 4x4 trend by prioritising ultimate go-anywhere ability over ultimate road going response.

    Got a 13' model Paj 4 LWB recently, with the 3.2DiD. Loved it so much we got a second one. Love its simplicity, value and ability to get the job done and yes, it seems from looking around that they last very well. The 3.2D is surprisingly good on fuel open road driving, getting around 8L/100km

    @karl4834 not at all. When they are stock and driven for economy on the open road we got both down to 7.3/100km. I've now got offroad bias 32" all terrains on and a 2 inch lift, and it sits more around 8.5-9 open road. Definetely best to leave stock for good economy, mods seem to have a big impact.

    The build quality of the Pajero, Montero is superb, corrosion protection is excellent and the 3.2 liter diesel has a surprising amount of torque, the Super Select automatic is one of the best transmission systems available These last forever if given reasonable servicing and will give far less trouble than Landrover or BMW offerings. As a previous commenter stated you won't see too many X5 BMW's in our Australian outback, nor many Landrover offerings either, too many Discovery's return on the back of a truck, broken cranks, problematic electricals. Landcruisers, Nissan Patrols and Rangers, Isuzu D'max and Pajeros are common and considered more reliable than most Euro offerings. Just my take!

    I have owned two of them 2013 and 2018 3.8 here in Dubai. Amazing vehicle, which can pretty much do everything well. The only negative thing I can say is that the cabin can rattle (interior door plastic, dashboards, etc) even at very low speeds on smooth roads. Has anyone found a solution to this?

    Europe's Mitsubishi Shogun is same as GCC Mitsubishi Montero. In GCC specs . Which has 3800 cc MIVEC petrol engine which create 298 horse power. Now about the secrets people won't say & why Mitsubishi worth every penny you spend at that time ( coz i owned Toyota & Nissan too ) Secrets.. other vehicles at the same segment. Was built on chasis but this particular vehicle was built in with monocoque body..( no seperate chassis )& to increase more speed & torque this montero's front bonnet was made in Aluminium. Third row seat is hidden as you see.. but very people know that we can take it out and use it in picnic or in park too. Entire seats Mitsubishi Pajero Montero model from the 1st model onwards can be used as full fledge bed for two. Base option will get a 10 seat & full option will get 7 seat leather interior with tiny mood light on roof. In full option vehicles you will get Rockford Acoustic design with minimum 10 speakers & a custom made Sub woofer on rear left plus additional 2 speakers in back door for camping. Moon roof is double the size. Plus you will get 20inch wheel in full option from 2017 onwards. Tricks... While driving if you put in mannual mode this huge vehicle handle Conners like a sports car.. (awesome feeling). In mannual mode if you put the car on 2nd gear on a steep or a slop while stand still engine break will activate. This vehicle comes with built in Tow hook ( full option).. the towing capacity is equal to its engine cc . Means a 3000 cc Mitsubishi can tow 3 ton easily etc etc. Mitsubishi Pajero Montero or Shogun can use 2H mode to 4H mode even while you travel at the speed of 100+ km/hr . This vehicle shock absorber is so good that you can travel on road humps ( except flat top) at the speed of 120 km/hr. There is a tractor crawling button( in full option) if you stuck in sand as an additional button next to R/D lock ...which make the vehicle crawl outside of that situation itself( though first timers will get scared of the noise it produce😅) by just giving acceleration. ( But best feature no other 4x4 had at that time)

    298hp for the Pajero 3.8 ??? No way, I have a GCC Pajero 3.8 and it produce "only" 250 on paper even less in reality (for the GCC spec at least). And in Europe the 3.8 is extremly rare, it's mostly the 3.2 that you will found on the market. But I agree, it was the best 4x4 for the money. Competitor would be Prado and it cost sometime 3 time more for the same job....
