Mitsubishi Pajero Sport Black Series Ralliart Edition Comes With “Special” Stickers And Merch

Despite the rally-inspired looks, the Ralliart Edition of the truck-based SUV is not available with 4WD

Mitsubishi has a weird strategy when it comes to the Ralliart brand, and this is evident in the latest special edition of the Montero Sport (Pajero Sport) that has just been launched in the Philippines. The Mitsubishi Montero Sport Black Series Ralliart edition comes with sporty looks and free merch, but underneath it is a stock RWD model without any performance or chassis upgrades.

The special edition is exclusively available in White Diamond shade, with black alloy wheels, glossy black fender flares, red accents on the bumpers, and red mud flaps. The highlight is the red and black decals on the profile, joined by the Ralliart emblem. This livery makes the SUV look like a support vehicle for rallying.

Interior upgrades are limited to Ralliart floor mats with red piping. Buyers also have access to an umbrella, a backpack, and a cap, all featuring Ralliart badging. The merch is included in the price of the vehicle, although these items can also be sourced from Ralliart’s official e-shop in Asia.

Despite the fancy looks, everything remains completely stock under the skin. The 2.4-liter four-cylinder turbodiesel generates 178 hp (133 kW / 181 PS) and 430 Nm (317 lb-ft) of torque, and is mated to an eight-speed automatic. What is peculiar is that Mitsubishi chose to combine the Ralliart treatment with the RWD model rather than offering the Super Select 4WD-II system as an option.

The Mitsubishi Montero Sport Black Series Ralliart edition is available to order in the Philippines, where it is priced at ₱2,277,000 ($39,300). This means it is a full ₱115,000 ($2,000) more expensive than the model it is based on, proving that Ralliart goodies don’t come cheap.

The Ralliart accessory phase started in 2022 from the Japanese market and has expanded to other regions either with aftermarket bits or with special editions like the aforementioned Montero Sport. Hopefully, the automaker will capitalize on the expertise of its motorsport division with a rugged version of the Mitsubishi Triton or a production version of the performance-focused Outlander Ralliart Concept.

The current Pajero Sport has been around since 2015, with two consecutive facelifts in 2019 and 2024. The long-due next generation of the ladder-frame SUV has already been spied testing, and is expected to arrive in 2025. As with its predecessor, the new Pajero Sport will ride on the underpinnings of the Mitsubishi Triton midsize pickup.
