stoopid
I just read a review of the Hyundai Sante Fe 2016?
Now I am in no way criticising that vehicle. What I am amazed at is the pricing of the models. The top of the range Diesel and Auto is $60K.
Now if you consider that for very little more you can buy a similar speccced Pajero and yet have a vehicle that is so much more capable offroad wise and towing wise and dare I say safety wise I have to wonder why Mitsubishi is dropping this class of vehicle. The caravan and camping parks are well represented in numbers of Pajeros. The fact is the monocoque has proven itself and with a tech upgrade and a styling tweak and here and there. Now if the problem is with emissions and the engine then I would say to Mitsubishi... build design licence and tweak one.
I think if Mitsubishi drop the Pajero (can i be so biased to say) their flagship vehicle then they will become a small and medium sized ho hum car builder competing against a wave of Chinese newcomers as well as the rest of the worlds middling manufacturers offerings.
Dare I say that the Pajero is their point of difference from these companies and that the Pajero is the front of mind marketing vehicle, the flagship, the marketing symbol, because the rest of the vehicle range offered by Mitsubishi is about as distinctive as a rock in a quarry.
Vent over sorry just going through the 9 steps probably at angry having not left denial phase yet.
