It has been suggested that vehicle manufacturers only make about 40% of the vehicle they assemble. The rest comes from specialist original equipment manufacturers (OEM's). Thing like engines, transmissions, axles, wheels, seats, doors and dashboards are made by specialist manufacturers.
So who makes the major components of the Pajero Sport?
The engine may be made in-house by Mitsubishi, but what other vehicles use it?
Who makes the transmission? Jatco? Aisin? ZF?
Who makes the axles and diffs?
The sound system? Alpine?
The reason it is good to know is that if you need spare parts, you may find it cheaper to go to another supplier that uses the same original equipment manufacturer as Mitsubishi.
