The update comes after the Thai-market Pajero Sport was updated in March, with Australian upgrades largely reflecting those seen overseas.
This includes a new front grille insert and lower bumper garnish, as well as new alloy wheel designs and a revised rear bumper.
There are cabin changes too, with the new Triton ute's three-spoke steering wheel replacing the Pajero Sport's dated four-spoke item.
Mitsubishi has culled the rear-wheel drive Pajero Sport variants, with the range now 4×4-only.
This has resulted in the SUV's price of entry rising by $6600 to $51,540 before on-road costs in base GLX five-seat guise – which itself has undergone a $1600 price increase.
The prices of the GLS, Exceed and GSR are also up $1700, $1900 and $2400 respectively, with the flagship grade now starting from $64,840 before on-road costs.
The 2024 Mitsubishi Pajero Sport is now available in local showrooms.
