specially invited audience at Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve.
Powered by a
robust 3.0-liter V6 MIVEC engine, the Montero Sport boasts a 8-speed automatic
transmission for a smoother, more luxurious ride and improved fuel efficiency.
The cruise control and sporty paddle shifters which lets driver to shift gears
with a press, without removing their hand from the steering wheel adds to the
driving comfort. The all-new Montero Sport comes with comprehensive active and
passive safety features. MMC's own RISE*3 impact safety body design and a total
of seven SRS airbags provide occupants outstanding passive safety.
Active safety features
include Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM), the Blind Spot Warning
system (BSW, a first in a Mitsubishi model) and the Ultrasonic misacceleration
Mitigation System (UMS). In addition the all-new Montero Sport is fitted with
many advanced features which go well beyond what is normally found in this
class, such as an electric parking brake (first on a Mitsubishi model), a
Multi-around Monitor and fully automatic climate control allowing different
temperatures to be set for driver and front seat passenger.
The all-new Monetro Sport uses
a further-evolved version of MMC's own Super-Select 4WD-II four-wheel drive
system. This is complemented by the new Off-road Mode (first on a Mitsubishi
model), which gives even better all-terrain performance and stability as the
road surface requires, and by Hill Descent Control (first on a Mitsubishi
model). Pressing the HDC mode selector activates HDC, which automatically
applies the brakes to maintain the current speed when travelling downhill at 2
km/h - 20 km/h. This lets the driver to concentrate on steering and travel
downhill with greater safety without having to manually apply the brakes.
Handling is stable and accurate on and off road, in all kinds of weather and
driving conditions, thanks to selectable 2WD and 4WD modes, an OFF ROAD MODE,
intelligent assistance in challenging conditions, an advanced suspension and
outstanding all-around clearance.
Using the drive mode
selector dial, the driver can switch between 2WD (2H) and 4WD (4H, 4HLc) with
shift-on-the-fly convenience at up to 100 km/h. When the going gets rough, the
driver can lock the center differential by entering the 4HLc setting for rugged
terrain or the 4LLc setting for inclines, mud and sand. Furthermore, Active
Stability & Traction Control independently regulates braking force to the
wheels during cornering to help maintain excellent vehicle stability when
needed.
It also optimizes traction to prevent loss of torque whenever wheel
spin is detected by controlling engine output and applying brake force to the
spinning wheels.Adding to its manoeuvrability, the Montero Sport offers a
class-leading 5.6m turning radius, which is surprisingly small for a vehicle of
this size, making it especially easy to park and drive.
On the outside, the
sophisticated LED headlamps and daytime running lights contribute to an
appealing, high-quality personality. The Montero Sport's dynamic LED rear
combination lamps boldly proclaim this is no ordinary SUV. The prices of the
all-new Montero Sport start from AED 89,900 for baseline to AED 107,000 for the
fully loaded premium highline.
