Mitsubishi Motors announced plans to introduce a midsize version of the revived Pajero SUV in Japan as early as fiscal 2028. This launch will be followed by a compact version, marking an expansion of the Pajero series. The move is part of Mitsubishi's strategy to strengthen its off-road vehicle brand image and boost sales within the domestic market.

The Pajero SUV originally gained popularity in Japan during the 1990s due to its off-road capabilities. By developing the vehicle into a series, Mitsubishi aims to capitalize on this legacy and meet growing consumer demand.
