Adobe Rent a Car is the largest national car rental in Costa Rica. It has one of the most updated fleets in the country.
A recent addition to our Costa Rica car collection is the full size SUV, the Mitsubishi Montero Sport 4 wheel drive SUV. With its powerful, fuel-efficient 3.0 liter engine and 4WD system, it is ideally suited to both city and rural driving. Especially for the off-road driving conditions common in the desirable and most beautiful parts of our country.
Our Costa Rica car rental model, Mitsubishi, is a well-known brand that needs no introduction. The makers regularly upgraded the Montero Sport SUV to meet the expectations of modern travelers who demand safety, power, space, comfort, and luxury– without losing its all-around fun, top-class driving experience.
Sport Montero SUV Car Features
Engine: The Costa Rican Montero Sport has a powerful and fuel-efficient direct-injection diesel engine that can accelerate quickly and tow heavy loads.
Transmission: The Montero Sport 4WD has an 8 speed automatic transmission (Super Select 4WD-II system) that creates maximum stability and traction and is easy to operate.
While driving, the Drive Mode Selector dial lets you shift easily between 2H, 4H, and 4HLc modes at speeds up to 100 km/h. When the terrain gets tougher, you can lock the center differential using the 4HLc and 4LLc settings. (However, you must stop when you switch from 4HLc and 4LLc mode)
Keyless Operation System (KOS): The Montero Sport has a smart key fob for a keyless entry. The vehicle’s sensors detect the nearby fob and let you unlock the doors and tailgate. You can also start the engine without the key.
Vehicle-speed sensitive automatic door lock: the door will automatically lock when the vehicle reaches a certain speed. (It also has an impact-sensitive unlock mechanism.)
Technology: The Montero Sport’s onboard technologies include a Multi Around Monitor for easy parking and an Adaptive Cruise Control system that reduces driver stress.
