Mitsubishi Motors’ highly-anticipated new generation Triton light
commercial has made its international debut in Thailand last week.
Presented for the first time in production form, the 2015 Mitsubishi Triton will be more efficient, offer high levels
of safety and raise the bar for passenger car-like steering performance, quietness, and ride comfort across the LCV
class.
Powered by a new all-aluminium 2.4-litre MIVEC turbo diesel engine with variable geometry turbo, matched to a new
6-speed manual transmission or optional 5-speed automatic, the new generation model retains Triton’s working vehicle
durability and load-carrying capacity without compromising passenger and drive comfort.
The new Triton is designed to be as easy to manoeuvre as a large passenger car.
With new exterior styling, the 2015 Triton achieves outstanding aerodynamic performance for an LCV. The new design
contributes to Triton’s fuel efficiency and quiet performance, while retaining traditional Triton styling cues.
Generous interior space has been achieved across all the three available body styles - single cab, double cab and club
cab body, while the strategic placement of sound insulation, absorption and vibration damping materials contributes to
significantly improved cabin quietness.
Mitsubishi Motors Australia Executive Director of Marketing Tony Principe said the new generation Triton is designed
to successfully perform the dual role of work truck and family car.
“The 2015 Triton is part of a new breed of Mitsubishi vehicles that reflect the sizable investment we are making in
the development of world-class SUV and light commercial vehicles,” he said.
“New Triton makes a significant leap forward in all areas, particularly in terms of passenger comfort,
manoeuvrability and efficiency, and still delivers on the toughness, reliability and off-road performance that have made
Triton such a success in Australia.”
The Triton launch marks the start of sales of the new generation model in Thailand where it will be manufactured for
domestic and international markets, including Australia.
