The fourth generation of the Pajero/Montero/Shogun broke its chains and stormed the Mitsubishi Motors booth at the 2006 Paris Motor Show.

Mitsubishi tried to revive its Pajero/Montero/Shogun lineup in 2003 with a mild facelift for both versions, with three and five doors.

The third generation of the Pajero/Montero/Shogun brought the biggest change in the model's history since it changed the car from body-on-frame construction to unibody.

The second generation of the Pajero appeared on the market in 1991, and Mitsubishi offered it with different names, depending on the market, in three- or five-door versions.

That was the beginning of a successful vehicle that raised the Mitsubishi's flag twelve times in the most challenging race from those times, the Paris-Dakar Rally Raid.
