The Shogun is priced competitively against rivals like the Toyota Land Cruiser and an average fuel consumption of up to about 30mpg is fairly typical of a large 4x4, so Mitsubishi Shogun running costs shouldn’t be bad. The Shogun will typically shed about 50% or so of its original cost after three years, which isn’t bad for this type of car.

Mitsubishi Shogun emissions aren’t great. The Shogun is a moderately polluting model with emissions of 207g/km of CO2 and economy of 36.2mpg for three-door manual models.

Five door models are only slightly worse with the manual version putting out 213g/km of CO2 and averaging 34.9mpg.

Plenty of the original 1983 vintage Shoguns are still running and Mitsubishi Shogun reliability should be excellent as a result. Large 4x4s are expected to be reliable because they may well be used in remote areas where a breakdown or fault is more than a mere inconvenience. The new model, retaining most of the mechanical parts of the previous model, should be well proven and dependable.
