The Mitsubishi Challenger is a mid-size SUV built by Mitsubishi Motors. It is known as Montero Sport in North America and Spanish-speaking countries, Nativa in Central America, Shogun Sport in the UK & South America, and Pajero Sport in many other export markets.

The Challenger began production in 1996 and was available for most export markets by 1997. It is no longer available in either of its two largest markets, being discontinued in Japan in 2003 in North America in 2004, where it was superseded by the Endeavor, but remains available in Europe, Australia, Mexico, South America, and China.

It shares its V6 petrol and I4 diesel engines with the Mitsubishi Pajero, as well as its Super Select four-wheel drive system, but unlike its sibling it is not available with a short wheelbase chassis. In North America, a base two-wheel drive version is available.
