Mitsubishi was always a big name in tough off-road racing, winning numerous races. However, in 1997, the company decided to introduce the Pajero Evolution, a special off-road-prepared version of the three-door Pajero SUV that was ready for racing. The Pajero Evo got a new suspension, a 3.5-liter V6 engine with 276 HP, and Recaro seats. Some models even got a fully white paint job ready for the sponsor’s decals and stickers. The production lasted until 1999, and they built over 2,500 of them.
