New Mitsubishi Montero Sport [ARCHIVED]

[boosted]

hold off on buying the fortuner for now! - this is the new montero sport a.k.a. triton g-wagon - unfortunately they are only showing the side profile but it looks interesting - design influences from of course the current strada and the rear looks similar to the outlander's - actually looks like a daddy outlander - which is a good thing IMHO.

may naka display na ganyan sa Mitsubishi Quezon Av. nung April.

This is interesting. The more, the manier... options, that is.

Reminds me of how Isuzu designed the MU-7/Alterra around the Rodeo/D-Max platform.

what i have posted sa strada 2007 thread:
hello, click here for the Strada based wagon!-

http://www.autoincar.com/wp-content/...on-2008-cg.jpg

"The next Mitsubishi Montero sport is a name of Usa and European market nor like G-wagon for thailand and asean market what was built derivable on Mitsubishi Strada light trucks platform just line-out canceled 2 years ago when The all new revolution light truck “Triton” has launched to Thailand is the first world premier locations.The thai customer both ever use G-wagon or want suv built on light truck platform to demand MMth produce The next Generation of G-wagon in as soon as possible .MMth heard all their comment and information customer to hide for this new G-wagon them projects.

Some information of 2008 G-wagon is confirmative to tell for www.autoincar.com reader only that this data please see below

- The frontend looks same as Triton head but adjust some part little bit i.e. Headlamp to notch of bottom lighting shape alike outlander,Bumper looks more sporty.
- The tailbody from rear doors to tailgate looks like 2008 Toyota Highlander very much
- It wiil be built on Triton chassies
-Timing lauching is Q2 2008 or Bangkok Motor show 2008 the first in Thailand

it seems to be that the text from autoincar.com has been translated from some online translator like google babelfish. thai people have been waiting and waiting for their PPV to come alive. i think..."

any more delaying tactics from mitsubishi thailand and philippines will freak all of us out!

"Our PPV (new G-Wagon) product will arrive in the third quarter of 2008 or early 2009 after we introduce a minor-change pick-up. I know our dealerships are not happy, but I have asked them to be patient."

don't think that's possible since this model has not yet been introduced even in foreign markets.

[kokey]

Kailan naman kaya dating nyan dito?

Think twice before you buy a HYUNDAI.:furious:

[hominid]

Outie/Strada pa rin!

[eggman]

I think gusto munang palakasin ng Mitsubishi ang sales ng Strada-Triton before introducing the new Montero Sport-G Wagon....

[josephbrien]

Nice! Para may kalaban na yung fortuner. sana mura para may laban!

[oliver1013]

Dapat talaga meron niyan...hilux=fortuner,dmax=alterra,yun pickup ng ford=everest, so ito naman yung sa strada...

[megadeth]

instead of the outlander na napakamahal, ito sana yong nilabas nila. im sure parang strada din ang presyo nito like the 3.2 variant. and hopefully maglabas din ng manual trans. di gaya ng montero sport na puro matic.

yep think so too.. baka naman Strada lang yun na may sport canopy.

[numbah5]

baka ang engine nito will be the 2.5 & 3.2 DI-D and the 2.4 MIVEC... yung yung 2.5 DI-D at 2.4 MIVEC siguro sa 4x2 tapos yung 3.2 DI-D sa 4x4... sana naman yung 4x4 switch parang sa outlander din...

[Eilrahc]

I hope it will be out early 2008. This could be a good alternative to my choices, particularly the Sta. Fe and Fortuner.

[pajerokid]

Oh man! Thank the good lord for this! Enough Fortuners already! (COngrats to Toyota for a smash hit though)

i own a montero sport,mabagal sa arangkada,1:8 pa ang ratio ng consumption ng diesel,i need advice paano ko mapa bilis ng kaunti ito

ianmitsulancer,

This is just a photochop. It's AG4/AM's rendition of a possible Strada-based Fortuner competitor. He used the Outlander as a basis for his chop. It was originally posted in motioncars.com. That's his watermark over there.;)

thank u for the clarification... but it looks so real! i admit - new being in the forum for a few months now. I was starting to think that AG4 and AM are professional automotive paparazzis!!! despite watermarks made, any photographer can do it for copyright. good job

as for the engine/drivetrain combo - the current 4D56 and 4M41 from the Strada should be able to outrun the Fortuner 4x2 and 4x4. I don't think the outie's AWD switch will carryover. Expect 2 gear shifters like the Strada to work on. The 2.4 MIVEC...? perhaps the 4G69 (Grandis/Galant) or the 4B12 (Outlander) should be the perfect fit. We haven't seen those engines in RWD format. only the old 4G64 (Space Gear/Fuzion). Lets hope they can make the change. It is likely for the 4G69 to be applied IMO since it is an improved version of the 4G64 - so the assemblers will treat it as if they are installing the old 4G64- just a bit bigger and a new MIVEC head. The Monty should come from Thailand unlike Japan for the outlander which is one of the reasons why its price is a bit high - but not as high as the RAV4.

here is another rendition from thaidriver... somewhat similar to AG4 and AM...
