2 Answers
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology reports a fuel consumption of 12.4 liters per 100 kilometers, while the official fuel consumption is 11.6 liters per 100 kilometers. Related information: Pajero SPORT model: The Pajero SPORT is a renowned model developed and produced by Mitsubishi Motors Corporation of Japan in 1998, with significant improvements made in 2002. It was the first model permitted to be produced outside Japan and to use the PAJERO SPORT trademark. Performance: Due to its unique off-road driving performance, it is highly popular among car enthusiasts and holds a significant share in the off-road vehicle markets of Europe and America. It is equipped with advanced features, including a 2.972-liter V6 24-valve engine that meets the latest emission regulations, achieving Euro III standards. It comes with a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed intelligent electronically controlled automatic transmission, allowing easy selection between four-wheel drive (or two-wheel drive). The front suspension adopts a double-wishbone independent suspension system, providing excellent off-road performance, and its technological level ranks among the top in the world's off-road vehicle models.
I drive my Pajero V73 mostly in the city, the 2.4L model actually consumes 13 to 15 liters per 100km, and it can spike up to 16 liters in frequent traffic jams. Last week on the highway with the AC on the whole way, carrying four people plus luggage, the fuel gauge showed around 10.5 liters which was a pleasant surprise. The fuel consumption of an older car is greatly affected by maintenance. After I replaced the spark plugs and air filter last year, it became noticeably more fuel-efficient. I recommend regular throttle body cleaning. After all, it's a body-on-frame vehicle, and this fuel consumption is considered normal for a hardcore off-roader.
