The new 2024 Mitsubishi Triton will cost up to $7600 more than its predecessor when it arrives in showrooms in February next year.
Unveiled in Thailand in July, the new Triton is larger than before, with a more powerful twin-turbo engine, upgraded interior, new technology, a longer list of safety features and an all-new frame.
However in Australia it will be between $3250 and $7600 more expensive than the previous model – or between 8 and 15 per cent – with prices that now extend to $63,840 plus on-road costs.
At launch all models will be pick-up variants with Club Cab and double-cab bodies, with two- or four-wheel drive, and a standard 2.4-litre twin-turbo diesel engine, replacing the previous single-turbo engine.
While it appears the price of entry into the lineup has increased by $13,000 – from $30,740 plus on-road costs – cheaper base-model versions, including cab-chassis and single-cab bodies, and a manual transmission, are due at a later date.
The cheapest model at launch will be the GLX 4x2 double-cab automatic, priced from $43,690 before on-road costs.
The top-of-the-range version remains the GSR – a rival to the Ford Ranger Wildtrak, Toyota HiLux Rogue and Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain – priced from $63,840 plus on-road costs.
Mitsubishi Australia says the price rises also coincide with “new component and supply sourcing“, which it claims were amortised for the old model over the nine years the old model was in showrooms.
However, the hefty price rises for the new Triton compare to moderate increases of up to $2240 when the new-generation Ford Ranger arrived last year – excluding the Raptor, which saw a significant engine upgrade to go with the new body, interior, technology, and safety features to go with a $6000 price rise.
Mitsubishi Triton utes sold in Australia and New Zealand will receive unique tuning for the suspension and steering, following development work conducted locally – including at the Lang Lang proving ground in Victoria, previously used to develop Holden Commodore sedans and Colorado utes.
All models will be powered by a 2.4-litre twin-turbo four-cylinder diesel engine developing 150kW and 470Nm – up from 133kW and 430Nm from the previous Triton's 2.4-litre single-turbo diesel – exclusively matched for the time being with a six-speed automatic transmission.
Compared to the outgoing model, the new Triton GLX gains a larger 9.0-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, digital instrument display, a rear-view camera, and a much longer list of safety features including lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, front and rear cross-traffic alert, front and rear parking sensors, two more airbags, and auto high beam.
