CHALLENGE: 11-STRONG MODEL RANGE THROWS DOWN THE GAUNTLET TO MARKET STALWARTS

Mitsubishi's new Triton lands

Over the years, the Mitsubishi Triton lost ground to the likes of the Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger and Isuzu D-Max.

After a fair amount of delay and speculation, Mitsubishi Motors South Africa (MMSA) have finally brought the all-new Triton to our shores and they are looking to take the fight back to the established market stalwarts.

They plan to do this by offering some added variety in 11 model derivatives being available for the first time at launch. This includes the special-edition Athlete and Xtreme models that normally only arrive a few years into the lifecycle of the bakkie. Plus an Edition 46 heritage model.

The base spec Mitsubishi Triton models, in single cab and double cab, offer an all-new 81kW/200Nm 2.4-litre engine in small turbocharger configuration, with 4x2 and 4x4, and a five-speed manual transmission only.
