Hyundai Galloper
The Hyundai Galloper, also known as the Galloper Exceed, Galloper Innovation, Mitsubishi Galloper or Asia Galloper, is a full-size SUV manufactured by the South Korean manufacturer Hyundai from 1991 to 2004. It was a rebadged first and second generation Mitsubishi Pajero and was assembled at the Hyundai Precision Industry, Co. Ltd. factory in the City of Ulsan's, Buk-gu, Yeompo-dong until July 31, 1999, when Hyundai Motor Company took over the plant and production (i.e., Hyundai Motors Ulsan Factory #5). [2] It is almost identical to the Mitsubishi Pajero, a five-passenger vehicle with additional seating for 2 in the back, increasing its capacity to a full seven passenger vehicle. It was available with a 3-door body on a short wheelbase for the Galloper 4WD and Galloper Innovation 4WD models or 5-door body on long wheelbase for the Galloper I/II Exceed models.[3]
