Don't you guys think this great little vehicle will sell like hotcakes in South Africa if it was introduced at a competitive price. I mean watch how many Jimnys one sees on the road lately. It is called a Pajero Mini in some countries.

I think this must be on Mitsu SA radar to bring into the country, seeing that all the Mitsu vehicles are now imported in any case. Surely they can box a few of these in a container corner when they bring in a couple of Pajero's! :lol:

I like it.

If they can squeeze the 2.5 diesel engine in there.... it will be a monster!

I've seen a few of those around.
The dimensions are so well thought out, that it actually look like a scaled down iO, or even a Gen4 SWB.

Hmmm, don't know if they will. It's a "kei" class vehicle in Japan, which means the engine displacement is capped at 660cc, which may be a bit small of SA taste.

Had a close look at one of these in Brazil, must say I was quite impressed.
