Is something wrong with the acceleration in my 2016 Mitsubishi Pajero Sport?

I have a Pajero sport GLX 2016. I have a problem with the pick up when I drive. It feels like it taking too much power to accelerate. And, sometimes it drives really well with smooth acceleration. Is it normal or is something wrong with my car?

By and large, a car should perform the same day in, day out without any huge (or even noticeable) changes in its performance. So I’d say, yes, something is wrong with your car. As for the cause, well, it could be anything from poor fuel to a faulty battery to a park-brake that is sticking on. It’s impossible to diagnose problems like this one remotely, so have it checked out at a workshop. Continuing to drive it with a fault is asking for more damage to be done.
