At long last, Mitsubishi has unveiled the third-generation Triton (sixth-generation Mitsubishi pick-up truck), which is making its global debut in Thailand. In addition to ASEAN and Oceania markets, the all-new pick-up truck will also be …
With the new dimensions, the Triton has moved from being one of the smallest pick-up trucks in its class to now one of the largest. For context, the current Toyota Hilux with a 2.8 litre turbodiesel engine is 5,325 mm long, 1,855 mm wide, 1,815 mm tall and has a wheelbase of 3,085 mm.
All contact points like the steering wheel, grips and door handles have also been designed based on an approach called Mitsubishi Touch, with a focus on grip comfort and sturdiness. The carmaker also fitted soft pads in main areas to protect passengers and metallic surfaces create a high-contrast, modern space.
Beneath the skin, the all-new Triton is built on a newly developed ladder frame that has a 65% greater cross-sectional area than the outgoing fifth-generation model. Along with an increase in the ratio of high-tensile steel used, this sees bending rigidity be improved by 40%, while torsional rigidity is up 60%.
The 4N16 turbodiesel comes in three states of tune, with the low-output option delivering 150 PS at 3,500 rpm and 330 Nm of torque from 1,500 to 3,000 rpm. This is followed by the mid-output unit that serves up 184 PS at 3,500 rpm and 430 Nm from 2,250 to 2,500 rpm. Mitsubishi’s Super Select 4WD-II and Easy Select 4WD systems continue to be employed here, allowing drivers to easily shift to 4WD mode while driving by using a dial selector. These systems are accompanied by a torque-sensing limited-slip differential that can distribute driving force at a ratio of 40% to the front and 60% to the rear to optimise traction and cornering performance.
