Although the official teaser pictures are dark and do not show a lot of detail, it looks like a sure thing that the front of the new Mitsubishi Triton bakkie will have a more mainstream design than the current one.
Mitsubishi Motors will hold the world premiere of the fully redesigned Triton bakkie in Thailand on July 26.
Not a lot of technical details are known yet, but it seems that the formidable 2.4 litre turbodiesel engine will soldier on in the new bakkie.
The Triton is Mitsubishi Motors' global strategic model that has been well-received in the ASEAN region, Oceania, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and other markets for its durability, robustness and drivability, as well as comfort and ride quality required for private use, according to the manufacturer.
The all-new Triton – the sixth generation of Mitsubishi Motors' midsize bakkie – is updated with a beefed-up body and a powerful, horizontally-themed styling. At the front, the combination of daytime running lights resembling the sharp gaze of a hawk and a set of three-dimensional headlights below emphasizes the impressive presence and robustness of the new model.
“I know that current as well as new fans will show an overwhelming interest in our all-new Triton bakkie, which will strengthen MMSA’s lifestyle attraction – stay tuned for more exciting news,” says Jeffrey Allison, General Manager: Marketing at Mitsubishi Motors South Africa (MMSA).
"The all-new Triton has been completely reimagined under the design concept Beast Mode, or audacious and daring," says Seiji Watanabe, division general manager of design, Mitsubishi Motors. "While expressing the toughness and power expected of a pick-up truck, the all-new Triton combines agility with the brand's robust design to create an imposing look.
