Mitsubishi’s trusty Triton can wear many hats and the brand has just added another, less glitzy model to the lineup – the Triton GL – targeting commercial buyers and fleets alike. It’s competitively priced, too.
Mitsubishi has expanded the Triton range to now include both commercial and lifestyle offerings. The Triton has found favour with many a lifestyle customer and the move to introduce an offering for fleet owners, as well as small and medium enterprises is a smart one, offering high levels of safety, practicality, and reliability to the commercial vehicle segment.
Jeffrey Allison, General Manager: Marketing at MMSA explains, “Fans of the Mitsubishi brand have shown overwhelming interest in a more robust commercial vehicle range, and MMSA is happy to oblige by introducing the Triton Double Cab GL.”
The Triton GL features Mitsubishi’s proven DOHC intercooled turbodiesel engine offering 100 kW and 324 N.m of torque. Slotting in as an entry point to the Triton range, the GL features in 4×2 guise with a six-speed manual transmission only. Triton double cab models all feature an impressive 1 520 mm long and 1 470 mm wide load bed, reinforced for durability.
As standard, the Triton Double Cab GL includes ABS with EBD, as well as ISOFIX anchors to which a child seat can be affixed and driver and passenger front airbags. Keyless entry, central locking, an immobiliser and electric windows all feature as standard, along with automatic air-conditioning and a touchscreen radio/CD player. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are available at an extra cost.
Mitsubishi’s entire commercial vehicle line-up – including the Triton Double Cab GL – is covered by an 3 year/100 000 km manufacturer’s warranty as standard, as well as a 5 year/90 000 km service plan. 5 year/unlimited km roadside assistance is included, too. Service intervals are every 10 000 km.
