Double Joy for Mitsubishi Mirage and Pajero Sport VGT
at the Asian Auto Fuel Efficiency Awards 2012
Kuala Lumpur, 3 June 2013 – Winning awards has become a yearly affair for Mitsubishi vehicles. This time around, monthly car magazine Asian Auto has awarded two category wins in its annual Fuel Efficiency awards 2012. The Mitsubishi Mirage and the Pajero Sport VGT both claimed first prize in the Compact City Cars and the Premium SUVs category.
The Mirage launched in November is developed on the concept of ‘compact’, ‘affordability’ and ‘high fuel efficiency’. With focus on fuel efficiency and eco-friendliness, the Mirage is capable of an impressive 21 km per litre of petrol as measured in the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).
The Pajero Sport VGT also defended its first place title last year in the Premium SUV category. The SUV impressed the judges by being “large, spacious, hardy and equipped with modern diesel engines”. Since coming on the scene in 2009, the seven-seater Pajero Sport – which counts space, ride comfort, robustness, economy and a Dakar Rally heritage as its strengths – has been a serial winner.
The organizers of the Asian Auto Fuel Efficiency Awards claims that this award is the first for the Malaysian and regional automotive industry and it is the only automotive award that encourages car manufacturers to offer better quality vehicles with the latest engineering and technology that promotes fuel efficiency and lower emissions.
Special Outlanders on their way to Environment Agency
THE first of nearly 140 specialist Mitsubishi vehicles destined for the Environment Agency has rolled off the production line and is ready for action.
The agency has ordered 138 commercial vehicles, including 70 new Outlanders, all of which will be built at the carmaker’s state-of-the-art Specialist Vehicle Operations Centre, which refits, adapts and upgrades standard Mitsubishi models to meet individual client requirements.
With each vehicle taking up to 40 hours to complete, staff at the Cirencester-based operation have been working hard to deliver the huge order between April and June. The company has also taken on seven extra technicians to work on the project.
Clive Messenger, Head of Corporate Sales at Mitsubishi Motors in the UK, believes the deal is testament to the quality of the Mitsubishi brand.
He said: ‘This is the first significant fleet order we have had for the new Outlander and with best-in-class fuel efficiency and CO2 emissions, as well as a five-star Euro NCAP safety rating, the third generation Outlander’s outstanding environmental credentials make it a perfect match for the Environment Agency.
‘Each vehicle is bespoke, based on the needs of each Environment Agency worker and what terrain they work in. Depending on the individual driver, we can tailor it to their needs so they are nearly all different in some way.
‘The Environment Agency was an existing customer with the previous model Outlander so they have confidence in the vehicle and they know it will stand up to their high demands.’
The first Outlander to be completed is a car-derived commercial vehicle with a load area racking system, roof bars, power sockets, laptop security box, tow bar, all terrain tyres, reverse sensors and Environment Agency livery.
Ticks all the boxes
As well as 70 new Outlanders, the Environment Agency’s order includes 30 L200 Club Cabs and 38 L200 Double Cabs.
Clive said: ‘The change cycle for their vehicles fitted in perfectly with the launch of the new Outlander.
‘This contract shows Mitsubishi is continuing to tick all the boxes with specialist fleet operators.
‘The fact we offer our specialist fleet refits ‘‘in-house’’ is a major selling point. No-one knows better than the manufacturer what can and can’t be done, no third parties need to be involved and the whole process is nicely joined up.’
Mitsubishi Specialist Vehicle Operations (MSVO) is also currently working on an array of high-profile fleet operators including National Grid and Ministry of Defence.
