Doha: The Mitsubishi Montero Sport shines with its fresh design, performance and durability at affordable price, making it the ideal car for all road conditions at all times.
The Montero Sport is available at Qatar Automobiles Company, the authorized general distributor of Mitsubishi Motors in Qatar, at its showroom on Salwa road.
With a fresh new face the Montero Sport has an updated look that features the new Dynamic Shield front grill, enhanced front bumper design and new LED and fog lights to give the car more tough yet smooth and modern look.
On the back, the layout of rear lamps was changed, signal lights and brake lights’ positions have been switched, with a new spoiler out back adding a smoked finish to give the car a more sophisticated look.
The model is equipped with 3.0-LITER V6 MIVEC engine. The high-displacement V6 engine supplies strong acceleration even when carrying heavy loads or travelling uphill. Thanks to the 8-speed automatic transmission – First from Mitsubishi Motors – improved fuel efficiency coupled with smoother, more luxurious drive is easily achieved.
Built for maximum stability and traction, the rugged frame and aerodynamically contoured body contribute to solid handling and stable highway performance. Reliable 4WD traction combines with an advanced suspension to keep the vehicle in touch with surface conditions to stay in firm control. Using the drive mode selector dial, drivers can easily switch between 2WD (2H) and 4WD (4H, 4HLc, 4LLc), while they can improve traction when driving off road.
The Hill Descent Control (HDC) mode selector automatically applies the brakes to maintain current speed when travelling downhill, allowing drivers to concentrate on steering and the road ahead without manually applying the brakes.
When starting on a steep slope, Hill Start Assist (HSA) helps prevent from rolling backwards when the brake is released by maintaining the braking force for up to two seconds until the accelerator is applied.
The car enjoys several features that ensure utmost safety of the driver and passengers. The features include, Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM), which helps prevent a frontal collision or reduces damage in the event that a collision is unavoidable.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), maintains a set distance between the vehicle and the car ahead via a radar. The Blind Spot Warning system (BSW) and Lane Change Assist (LCA) utilize radar sensors placed on the rear bumper to detect vehicles on the rear, left and right blind spots. To further enhance safety, the sensing range has been expanded to better detect the danger of collision with other vehicles during lane changes.
Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS) helps prevent collisions while parking, a buzzer sounds and a warning displays if front or rear sensors detect a nearby obstacle. Whereas Multi Around Monitor allows the views from cameras mounted on the front, rear and sides of the vehicle (including a bird’s-eye view) to be displayed in various combinations to reveal what is in blind spots and help the driver park more safely.
Collision safety performance is significantly enhanced by Mitsubishi Motors’ RISE (Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution) body, which efficiently absorbs energy and maintains high cabin integrity in the event of a collision. The body is extremely sturdy and lightweight, due to the generous use of high tensile strength steel plates that also contribute to a high level of collision safety.
The new Montero Sport enjoys seven SRS airbags to help protect the driver and passengers by absorbing the force of impact in the event of an collision. The system includes front airbags, front side airbags, curtain airbags (including third-row curtain airbags in the 7-seater) and a driver’s knee airbag.
