For 2021, the seven-seater SUV now comes with a 360-degree multi-view around the camera as standard for the GLS 2WD AT variant upwards.

As is typical of vehicles in this category, the Montero Sport has multiple blind spots on account of its size, and these can potentially cause accidents on the road. The new camera setup gives drivers a complete view of the vehicle’s surroundings, which aids in safer maneuvers.

Mitsubishi’s Active Stability and Traction Control (M-ASTC) is also offered by default on all but the base variant, allowing owners to more confidently tackle changing driving conditions over a variety of terrain.

Comfort also takes even greater precedence than ever, with 8-way power seat adjustment, making it easier for occupants to find the perfect riding position especially for long journeys.

The GT 2WD variant has this feature for the driver’s seat, while the range-topping GT 4WD trim has both front seats equipped with power adjustment as standard.

Various expressway projects opening up means more roads to enjoy, and the Montero Sport lets you take advantage of this by equipping the Montero Sport with cruise control across the range.

Power tailgate

The GT 4WD takes this even further with adaptive cruise control which automatically adjusts cruising speed according to the vehicle’s distance from other cars in front.

Other convenience features that customers shouldn’t miss are the power tailgate feature with hands-free access and height memory function, an 8-inch color instrument cluster, a new multimedia entertainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and remote functions with the Mitsubishi Motors smartphone app.

The best part is that the Mitsubishi Montero Sport will be priced the same for 2021, starting at Php 1,568,000 for the GLX 2WD M/T and Php 1,728,000 for the GLS 2WD A/T.
