NHTSA ROLLOVER RESISTANCE RATING: *  * 

The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating essentially measures vehicle characteristics of center of gravity and track width to determine how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars).

2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Review
"A slightly elevated roofline heads a short list of changes to this truck-based SUV, which dropped its top-line model and shuffled equipment at midyear. Montero Sport's ES and LS models use a 3.0-liter V6, the XLS a 3.5. Both V6s team with automatic transmission. All models offer rear-wheel drive or Mitsubishi's All4-Wheel Drive that can be left engaged on dry pavement; the 4WD includes low-range gearing. Antilock 4-wheel disc brakes are standard on 4WD versions. All but ES models come with 16-inch alloy wheels. Side airbags are unavailable. Leather upholstery is optional for XLS models. Mitsubishi says the newly raised roofline adds 0.8 inch to rear head room. Front head room is unchanged. Heated seats and mirrors, exclusive to the Limited model dropped at midyear, are no longer offered, and some of the XLS's standard equipment is now optional. In other news, ES models add standard roof rails, LS versions get platinum-color gauge faces, and the base CD audio system goes from 100- to 140-watts output."
