Mitsubishi Pajero Evo
No turbo, the engine is naturally aspirated, but the MIVEC system dose give a low boost turbo feel, nice video, and I drive one every day 🙂 … no good on fuel but that’s ok, it makes cool sounds, the Auto 5 speed was a very advanced transmission for the time(1997) and the ability to shift it manually is very good and very sharp, all 2500 units were built in 1997 according to Mitsubishi, this would have been done to meet the time frame for FIA homologation
Back in day I borrowed a standard SWB 3,5 litre Shogun (as they were badged in the U.K. ) I just remember it felt like it had too much power for the chassis, and when in 2WD it would easily spin its back wheels. Always thought the EVO version looked cool and would like to try one one day. Definitely the most collectible 90’s SUV IMHO.
