Mitsubishi is giving Triton a mid-year nip-n-tuck. Actually, it is more of a mild enhancement with the addition of a couple of tasty extras.

Triton is an enduring nameplate for the Mitsubishi brand,” said Mitsubishi Motors Australia CEO, Shaun Westcott.

“Its reputation as a highly capable and reliable vehicle, combined with its wide array of accessory options and unmatched 10-year warranty, have ensured its ongoing success.

“Whether looking for an everyday, rugged workhorse through to a fun family car, seeking adventure or just needing to ‘get there’, there is a new Mitsubishi Triton available to suit,” he said.

22.5MY Triton starts production this month for deliveries mid2022.
