Why did they choose that word? Did it have a meaning in another language besides Spanish or did they just like the sound?
Edit: found my own answer on Wikipedia, it's the latin taxonomy word for a feline:
> It was named after Leopardus pajeros, the Pampas cat, which is native to the Patagonia plateau region of southern Argentina.[3] But pajero in Spanish is also a common term of abuse, usually translated as "wanker" or "tosser", thus perhaps why alternative names have been used for many markets. It is known as the Mitsubishi Montero (meaning "mountain hunter"[4]) in the Americas (except Brazil and Jamaica), and Spain, while in the United Kingdom it is known as the Mitsubishi Shogun. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Mitsubishi_Pajero
