Is the Mitsubishi Pajero the best Alternative to the Toyota Prado? 

I think this car is underrated.

Currently own this vehicle, excellent vehicle. Have it for 5 years now, no issues. I find it to be very good off-road

I would take a top spec pajero over a Prado any day.

Props on the good review, but to get a few things out.... 1. The Pajero has a monoqoque that sits on a ladder sub-frame which makes for both good on road and off-road abilities, this gives you the best of both chassis design 2. Due to that design, it makes it a bit heavier than the Prado hence the 10-11km/l figures. 3. The VXL is best compared to the GLX Exceed (Australian Markets) since that is the top trim of the Pajero. Also to note is that Top trim equipment of various vehicles vary with market designation i.e. the African Market VXL's and Australian market VXL's (Kakadu) are not the same equipment-wise. 4. On off-road capabilities, the Pajero offers better wheel articulation than the Prado. The only downside is the ground clearance which can be sorted by aftermarket lift-kits. 5. On the on-road situation, it's best to note that since the Prado sits, higher, it rolls and yaws on the road more hence not a very comfortable ride. 6. Lastly, we need to understand that due to the lack of the Pajero's much needed revisions and updates, a lot of it's perceived updates are due to the need to stay relevant to its class competitors and safety authorities. Thank you.

Am amazed by the sound cancellation in this vehicle. Compared to others, this is a definite win for me.

I onced raced a VW golf gti from East London to umtata in South Africa against this car but one thing for sure is , this car is a beast and speeds like hell

Look guys, this car is simply awesome. Trust me.

I follow your content, but one thing I know for sure is that your review was about comparison with the prado, and didn't get to know more about the pajero, I like the pajero because of its steadiness, but again most people who buy these cars don't really look after the cost of fuel consumption or cost of service parts, for me I would opt for the pajero over the prado because it's appealing to me regardless of others option, however I would also differ with your review on off road, we need to see it doing offload.i have seen pajero reviews been driven offroad and what I can say they are both equal to the task.we should come out of the Toyota mentality, because we are importing cars which are cheaper abroad and sold to us at higher prices

At the time of the release of the second generation, 4M41, it made more power than the GD then (2015). GDs were rated at 177bhp and 450nm. Secondly, that updated GD came out around 2021.

It had not crossed my mind that someone would compare the Pajero to a takataka Prado..

A pajero's natural habitat is parklands.

Thank you for this. I remember you reviewed one but with very little information.

Unanunua gari uende offroad daily ama unanunua uendeshe kwa barabara...pajero kila siku...pesa ndo sina.

Erick , I'm really waiting for the review.your carnvasation inspires my love for cars ,I hope one day I will be like you

A truly underrated 4x4 🙌🏾 But for a high spec trim this one is completely lacking as compared to those in the UK or Australia.

Pajero anytime when compared to Prado. If well serviced it’s reliable ,stable & gives you peace of mind. How many Pajs have you seen overturned or crashed on the highways compared eg to Prado TX?😊

Have really been waiting for this review

U hv really honoured my request,thanks Man

I liked the Mitsubishi Pajero because it was a cheaper and better option to the Toyota Land-cruiser Prado. The Pajero seized production many years ago sadly,because neither its former owner Mitsubishi or current owner Nissan bothered to update it. An updated Mitsubishi Pajero could easily have shared the same ladder chassis that is the Nissan Patrol.

I've always looked forward to an honest review for this vehicle

I enjoy the reviews and there are many good and helpful things you said here. But I think you seemed a bit biased towards the Prado - not that it is a small car or anything. Regading offloading capability with its independent suspension, the Paj is very comfortable and capable compared to a Prado its age. Alafu, we used the V80, but it is worth noting that there are different Paj variants, with a wide range of engine capacities, hp and torque and they may influence part of the review differently. All in all, kazi poa na safi.

Nice to point out the different names for the market 👌

On off road in Africa remember that the last 7 years of the event held in Africa 2001-2007 were all won by the Mitsubishi Pajero. As others are writing, the reviewer is underrating this car. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakar_Rally

Great review ! Thank you!

I used the Mitsubishi pajero V93 during the campaigns and it didn’t let me down.

Impressive show,keep it up. Informative!!!!

Had my gen 4, 17 years. Very capable and reliable, so I still drive it.

Great review, and a commendable research. we appreciate your work. Please consider a focus on such most underrated SUVs. On the flip side, take notice on the suspension of all Pajero variants., and stability. Please we await a full review on Pajero IO in it's original make. Great unbiased reviews!!!

Some have a Rear Locking Diff ..with a button next to the seat heating controls

Pajero wins hand down!

I don't know about you guys but I guess in my opinion, one, I think we need to here separate opinions from each of the guys (maybe even individual drives). Two, the team is so awesome one guy is specific on comfort (SI unit), other guy luxury (shotgun) and wokabi is more off load oriented. I would love to here segments besed on each segments and have each guy talk based on their specialist. Anyway love the show always clicking on the alerts eagerly awaiting

The pajero wheel driving modes ie. 2H, 4H, 4LLL, 4LHC and the 3200cc engine are some of the advantages

Great review, how is the parts and after market support in your country or in Africa in general?

Weee Mzee get a sound/noise meter for on road comfort. Will help with cabin comparisons.

Great review. Erick kindly try do a review on the FJ cruiser, I personally think it's a better overall vehicle than the Prado, and has more power too.

Thank you! Kindly keep the lever shifters and knobs.

Have been waiting for this vehicle for long

I think the two/three door version is the perfect value for money.

The Pajero beats the Prado both in off-road capability and on-road stability for the simple reason that the Pajero features a rear independent multi-link suspension while the Prado has a rear solid axle beam. The Pajero is actually also more reliable than the Prado.

Nice review, alafu ongezea Mbugua volume, huwa nastruggle kumsikza

Good review bro

you are doing a good work next car to review ford everest or fortuner

Regarding the fuses. Prado's come with spare fuses in the box. That isn't really a selling point in terms of the 4wd system

You should add a segment of let's hear the sound engine.

Looks are subjective... I think as a whole it iis more interesting than the blander Toyota. Secondly, it has an integrated ladder frame undergirding the monocoque chassis,,,same as the outgoing Discovery, so it tough too. ..All on all, a lovely show... Keep it up

Nice review erick with a ck🔥....Sasa tuletee Nissan Patrol

This is a great car my friend.

Nice review. But I have noticed Mbugua needs a different mic technique or something, I always have to increase my volume when he is giving his opinions.

How about a suzuki escudo 2.4, 5 speed manual. Vs 2.5 rav 4 which is the better buy?

Good job CK. Please get us aVXL in the next review. Otherwise I'm forever your follower.

Brunch is served and ready for a formidable edutainment

I think I love this one

Funny how long it took you guys to put up the rear seats. The only time I've struggled with it was when removing the headrest after having it set up for a lengthy time. Otherwise it takes about 15-30 seconds to put up the seats - Very easy setup and what I like the most is that when it is down then it does not affect the cargo space at all.

What's the location you're filming from?

The third row that face you hell to operate are easy with a little practice. Just like in the Honda step wagon.

It's hightime Erick wokabi with a CK you review toyota fortuner

Excellent reviews as always... Also am trying to adjust Mbugua volume 😀 still waiting on VW touran TSI ✨🙌

Please can you do the review of the Prado 120

Kindly review mirage

You missed something on this show. The four wheel drive is engaged by an electric actuator at the gearbox . This means the gear nob is just a switch just like the Prado.

Nice Review Champion,,, Kindly do A Review Of Toyota Wish With A Sunroof 😄

15.76 seconds? 0-100? You made me go out and actually do it. Twice. I got 12 and 11 seconds. I don’t know if it’s the tools you were using but that reading was off. This review I think was heavily biased towards the J150 which I have nothing against btw…

very nice car infotainment system the best, fuel consumption si mbaya, very stable car pia apo kwa suspension iyo gari ikiwa ofroad inatingika sana n pia same problem as the prado has a very unreliable break pump imetukufia na 65k kilometer bwana na spare yake ni ufanye mchango inaumiza mfuko😂😂

How about a Mitsubishi Challenger 2014 and 90s two doors Toyota Rav 4.

Can you please do review of peugeot 2008🙏

Do a review of the Nissan patrol

Big boy Trevv who? Nice work Wokabi

Toyotas are spare hungry though cheap spares, unlike the 3 diamonds expensive spares but doesn't breakdown as much!

Can you do mark II 2l. Review...kwa youtube ni kihindi tupu.

Review a car for its practicality and features. Prado vxl was the SI unit to review the Pajero. If you want to compare have the two together side by side. On this one, justice has not been done to this vehicle.

Kindly campare this car to Subaru outback wilderness...najua haziko class moja lakini naangalia value for money

It really depends with which prado you're comparing to

@carversations.. Leta review ya nissan patrol 2021 v8.

Wokabi. i never miss your class.

You researched poorly on this car.Its engine churns out 200hp and 441nm torque from 2013,and 165hp 350nm of torque for the earlier version.The middle version produced 175hp and 380nm torque.A Prado 1kd-ftv churns out 170hp and 410nm torque,while the 1gd-ftv churns out 178hp and 450nm torque.All engines get a 10 kms/l fuel econ on highway drives.The Pajero wins considering the price point.Research well in future,otherwise you sound too biased.

Excellent engine that can be tuned to far higher power with no issues.

Is it true that V80 has a metal petrol tank???

Good work Wokabi. Tutafutie Toyota Rush

Ahoy captain Erick. GOOD WORK HERE. Please bring the Nissan Patrol

Please review Toyota Fortuner 2018

Next please BJ 40 review? Mobius "Kenyan " thingy

Nice review 👍🏽 next bring NISSAN PATROL wazito👊👊

im a big fan of Pajero(s) but i wan to here about the Prado VX-L but sanasana the KAKADU (Ausi version)

How much does it cost in ug shillings

Bro, the only thing you went wrong about this car is your underestimation of it offroad. Not having so many features or so much buttons to press meaning you are better. We know what traction means when you push the car to it's limit. Eg: the old Land Rover 110 doesn't have so much features as in traction but it's still one of the best up to now, can't even compare it to the prado 150 you are talking about. The best of what the Pajero is known and respected about is it's TRACTION but that is what you underrated. I don't know,...

"They drive the Prado like an Idiot and call it unstable" it's so true for so many SUV reviews.

why does it have 2 batteries?

What about Nissan Patrol?

Kwani hakuna hood inatosha Mbugua

I WATCHED THIS ALLURING EPISODE ON 21/11/2022

Interesting review. The 1KD-FTV, and the more recent 1GD-FTV engines are obviously the strong points in the Prado - incomparable to the Pajero. I am surprised the Pajero did not get a 6-speed transmission. The Pajero Sport has exceeded it with an 8-speeed auto gearbox. However, the Pajero is legendary. It has served its time very well. A good first choice substitute for the Prado!

Review Mercedes Benz A180 please

Hi bring nangoja kuona Mercedes gle 350d na Bmw X5 X6 na X7

😂ive had 2 Pajeros 94 and now 2012 3.2 td Looks are for the individual Pajero hands down wouldn't touch a Prado too expensive to service and too expensive to buy 🤪🤪🤣🤣far rear seat to install you are useless can be put up in 20 seconds Best Diesel best auto transmission (super select 4WD)

Nobody talks about this great work. This channel give advice to the aspiring car owner. Nifikisheni 1k subs nitashukuru 🙏😍

It's not 380HP but torque, correct that

aki eric,... I have never understood your problem with nissans man. I have owned a second hand nissan march cvt for several years and never had an issue man. I'd really like to buy you lunch uniambie ni nini nissans zilikufanyia

Shogun is the name used in Europe and Montero in the Americas because Pajero translates to a very rude word in Spanish...

Mitsubish Shogun is wonderful

Pajero shogun 🔥🔥
