Mitsubishi Pajero Sport in detail about fuel consumption
Content
In 1998, the Japanese Automobile Company debuted a new Mitsubishi model, the Pajero Sport. The economical fuel consumption of the Pajero Sport was one of the main requirements for this car. Already in 2008, this car was on sale in Russian international automobile salons. The fuel consumption of Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, in the current difficult economic situation, plays a big role and depends on many factors. Next, we will look at what increases and decreases the volume of gasoline consumption, as well as what proven ways to reduce fuel costs exist.
The main reasons for the increase in fuel consumption
| Engine | Consumption (track) | Consumption (city) | Consumption (mixed cycle) |
| 2.4 DI-D 6-mech | Xnumx l / xnumx km | Xnumx l / xnumx km | Xnumx l / xnumx km |
2.4 DI-D 8-aut | Xnumx l / xnumx km | Xnumx l / xnumx km | Xnumx l / xnumx km |
The main nuances that lead to greater fuel consumption of the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport include:
- engine type, size and condition;
- type of transmission;
- model range of release;
- specifications;
- driving maneuverability;
- road surface;
- driving style and mood of the driver;
- seasonal winter-summer.
To reduce the cost of fuel and its volume, it is necessary to consider in more detail and take into account all the above points.
Engine type, size
The engine can be diesel or petrol. To find out what diesel consumption a Mitsubishi Pajero Sport has, you need to know the engine size, as well as the roads on which the car most often travels. The Mitsubishi Pajero Sport diesel consumption per 100 km with a volume of 2,5 liters is approximately 7,8 liters. But this is an average. Indeed, with a different volume, the consumption will increase, and each driver makes maneuvers that are not always appropriate with such cars.
If the engine is gasoline, then the actual fuel consumption of Mitsubishi Pajero Sport in the city will be from 10 to 15 l and with a mixed cycle - 12 l. In this case, the diesel will be more economical.

The condition of the transmission is the most important indicator that affects the fuel consumption of the Pajero Sport. To find out the technical condition of the engine, its components, you must contact the service station. The modern and most effective method of car maintenance is computer diagnostics, which shows the transmission. As a result, you can find out the reasons why the engine consumes an excessive amount of fuel.
Technical specifications
The first main indicators of a car include:
- the lineup;
- year of issue;
- body.
Depending on these nuances, you can find out the engine size, as well as its main characteristics, which show fuel consumption and average consumption on different road surfaces.
Ride maneuverability
This nuance directly and significantly affects the use of gasoline by the engine. If the driving style is uneven, disturbed, then the volume of fuel increases significantly.
If the driver often switches from one speed to another, slows down constantly, then the volume can increase to 10 liters. Experienced drivers know that what kind of driver gets behind the wheel, such will be the trip in terms of comfort and economy.
road surface
When buying a car, it is very important for each driver what are the fuel costs and whether trips on this car will be economical. Also, the future owner of the SUV plans where and on what roads he will drive. The surface of the road affects the condition of the car as a whole, the operation of the engine and the cost of gasoline. Fuel consumption for Pajero Sport in the city is about 10 liters, compared to the highway - 7 liters, and in the mixed type - 11 liters. And this is without specific consideration of the engine size, as well as without the main influencing technical characteristics.
Therefore, the first thing you should pay attention to is the type of road and your financial condition.
Seasonality
The seasonal factor has a great influence on the volume of gasoline. According to SUV owners, the winter-summer season has different indicators in terms of the amount of fuel used.
Therefore, not sparing fuel for warming up the car, you can reduce further consumption on the highway.
In winter, the car warms up longer than in summer, and on the road, the engine works, so to speak, in “dual mode” - it tries to warm up the entire car system and prevent it from cooling.
How to reduce consumption
To significantly reduce the amount of fuel, you must follow some driving rules and take into account the nuances of the car itself. Algorithm of mandatory actions for the owner of a Pajero Sport car:
- check the oil level;
- make sure that the fuel filter is in good condition;
- monitor the condition of the injectors;
- fill in high-quality, proven gasoline;
- use antifreeze in winter;
- regularly do computer diagnostics;
- check the condition of the electronics and its veracity;
- take good care of your car.
By following these rules, you can save on fuel.
Basic rules for an economical and comfortable trip
In order for your car not to exceed the average gas consumption rates, you must maintain a calm and even driving style, as well as respond to all signals and sounds that the engine and its system emits. Timely repair is the key to a safe, economical and comfortable trip for you and your loved ones!
