  • 2024 Mitsubishi Triton: Full Australian details
  • Price of entry up nearly $13K
  • Mitsubishi to focus on high-end 4×4 dual cab variants at launch
  • Complete overhaul sees comparative price rises between $3250 and $7600

Mitsubishi Australia has confirmed full local details for the sixth-generation Triton ute ahead of its February 2024 launch.

First unveiled in July, the 2024 Mitsubishi Triton will launch with four familiar variants: GLX, GLX+, GLS, and GSR. The initial range has a 4×4 and dual-cab focus with a six-speed automatic standard across the board.

The GLX 4×2 dual-cab pick-up opens the range priced from $43,690 before on-road costs – similar to base Ford Ranger XL, Toyota HiLux WorkMate and Isuzu D-Max SX 4×2 dual-cab pick-up models.

As before, the blacked-out GSR 4×4 dual-cab pick-up tops the Triton range, now up $6900 to $63,840 before on-road costs.

It plays in the same circa-$60K range as a four-cylinder Ranger XLT, HiLux SR5, D-Max LS-U+, Mazda BT-50 GT, and Volkswagen Amarok Life.

Overall, prices have increased between $3250 and $7600 compared to equivalent versions of the outgoing Triton, but the brand said it is “confident that once people drive the vehicle, they will appreciate the major step forward this vehicle presents”.

The entry price has climbed $12,950, though additional variants – including more affordable ‘tradie-spec’ two-wheel-drive and single-cab models – are available overseas and could arrive in Australia later in 2024.

”A six-speed manual will also be offered on some variants, post-launch,” said Mitsubishi Australia when it confirmed cab-chassis variants will be added post-launch.

“Being a core market for the Mitsubishi Motors brand, and with Triton being a core model for Australia, the importance of this vehicle cannot be overstated, and we are very proud to have played a key role in its development,” said Mitsubishi Australia CEO Shaun Westcott.

As reported, Australia-bound versions of the new Triton feature a bespoke suspension tune, while local engineers assisted Japan in the development of a global electronic power steering tune.

Along with the more powerful and efficient 150kW/470Nm twin-turbo four-cylinder diesel engine (up 17kW and 40Nm) there’s plenty of new standard equipment, including a full suite of active safety equipment, a larger 9-inch infotainment system, 7-inch semi-digital instrument cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay, built-in sat-nav, and front and rear parking sensors.

Full pricing and equipment tables are available below, along with everything else you need to know about the new-generation Mitsubishi Triton.

Engine, drivetrain, and fuel economy

Under the bonnet, the Triton has a 150kW/470Nm twin-turbo ‘4N16’ 2.4-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine.

It may not challenge the Ford Ranger’s 600Nm V6 – or the 500Nm Ranger bi-turbo and HiLux – but bumping the old car’s outputs by 17kW and 40Nm allows it to surpass the D-Max and BT-50’s 450Nm.

The new Triton will come with a six-speed torque converter automatic transmission, and its braked towing capacity increases 400kg to the industry-standard 3500kg.

It’s also more efficient, improving by 0.9L/100km in ADR combined testing with 4×4 versions recording 7.7L/100km.

A ​​six-speed manual – with a new cable linkage to improve NVH suppression and lighten the shift – is due here later in 2024.

GLX and GLX+ models continue to feature the basic Easy Select 4WD system, while the GLS and GSR have the Super Select II system that allows the vehicle to be driven in 4H on all surfaces.

It also adds ‘active yaw control’ to assist in reading traction loss in low-speed slippery conditions.

Safety

The 2024 Mitsubishi Triton is yet to be assessed by independent safety testing bodies such as ANCAP.

Eight airbags (dual front, side and curtain, as well as driver’s knee and Triton-first front-centre) are fitted as standard.

Dimensions

The dual-cab Triton is 15mm longer and 50mm wider, resulting in a larger overall profile.

In addition, the wheelbase – previously unchanged since 2005 – is longer, now extending beyond 3000mm to 3130mm, improving occupant space.

A new rear axle location should improve its load-lugging ability while the tray has grown by 35mm in length to 1555mm and measures 1545mm at its widest point.

The load height is now 45mm lower at 820mm, and the bumper has a flattened grip-taped area atop the bumper to stand on when loading objects.

Warranty and servicing

As with the rest of Mitsubishi’s model range, the Triton is covered by the brand’s base five-year/100,000-kilometre warranty.

Owners may be eligible for its extended 10-year/200,000-kilometre warranty if all scheduled services have been completed through an authorised dealer.

In addition to this, 10-year capped price servicing is also included as well as one year of roadside assistance as standard, extending to four years when the service schedule is adhered to.

“Pricing for the capped price servicing program will be confirmed closer to the launch date,” said Mitsubishi Australia.
