TheMitsubishi Pajero iO is amini SUV produced by the Japanese manufacturerMitsubishi between 1999 (since June 15, 1998, in three-door form, and August 24, 1998, as a five-door) and 2007.[3][4] The "iO" name is derived from the Italian for "I" which, according to Mitsubishi, "generates an image of being easy to get to know, easy to drive, and of being one's very own Pajero".
It was exported as theMontero iO, and toEurope as thePajero Pinin,Shogun Pinin or simplyPinin to honourPininfarina, which built the local market versions of the car at their factory nearTurin, Italy.[5] It was also produced in Brazil as thePajero TR4 from 2002 to 2015 under license. The name was changed after imported versions were referred to as "1.0" instead of "iO", which could lead to confusion about the engine sizes. The Brazilian TR4 was Mitsubishi's firstfour-wheel driveflexible-fuel vehicle - running ongasoline,ethanol or a combination of the two - when it was introduced in July 2007.[6] The car is also produced in China byChangfeng Automobile under the Liebao (Leopaard) brand as theChangfeng Liebao Feiteng CFA 6400 available with the 4G94 engine paired to a 5-speed manual transmission.
