2015 Mitsubishi Triton Review: Stronger, Quieter, And Not Too Big - The Motor Report
A price advantage not to be sneezed at, plus family-friendly dimensions and on-road feel. Vehicle style: LCV 4WD twin-cab and space cab ute. Price range: $24,490 to $47,490. Engine/trans: 133kW/430Nm 2. 4 litre turbo-diesel | 6-spd manual, 5-spd auto. Fuel consumption claimed: 7. 6 l/100km combined | tested: 10. 4 l/100km combined (14. 3 l/100km off-road, 8. 1 l/100km on-road). OVERVIEW If you want to put the capabilities of a 4x4 light commercial to the test, you can do worse than point it at a sand dune. So, Mitsubishi's choice of Fraser Island, the world's largest sand island, as the venue for the launch of the new Triton , seemed “a little brave”. Because sand, sometimes so unpredictable and deceptively hard to 'read', can bog any vehicle - no matter how capable. But at least one indicator of the capabilities of the new Triton. New engine, new suspension, new steering, new auto transmission, new styling and new cabin proportions. Priced from $24,490 to $47,490, it sits about 'right' mid-segment. So it's the best-ever Triton - after driving the GLS, GLX and Exceed (manual and auto, on-road and off it) we can confirm that much. Source: www.themotorreport.com.au
