The Mitsubishi Triton 2015 revealed

The brand new Mitsubishi Triton made its world premiere in recent months, with the reveal treating fans of the Mitsubishi car maker with a little surprise. Based on the latest technology developed in the Mitsubishi design center, as well as over 36 years in the SUV/utility vehicle market, the Triton has clearly drawn on Mitsubishi’s ability to bring us this new, updated model.

The Mitsubishi Triton 2015 is available with three different engines to choose from - a 2.4L petrol, 2.5L diesel or a 2.4L turbo diesel. There are also three options for a single cab, double cab or a club cab to choose from. The truck will be built at Mitsubishi’s own plant in Laem Chabang in Thailand.

Built on a Foundation of Innovative Technology

While there is a raft of options on the interior and finishes, it is in the drive system that really intrigues most customers. With a clear reference to the concept shown at the Geneva motor show in early 2013 depicting the power of the GR-HEV drive train system, the Mitsubishi Triton revealed a work-in-progress attempt to get this new technology into the hands of the consumers.

Having been developed as the ultimate sports utility truck, the Triton focuses on its workhorse likeability on all terrain and the power that is under the hood. With generous space and a large payload ability, the Triton is bound to be used by multiple industries from farming to construction and a variety of personal uses. The Triton stands head and shoulders above many of its often more expensive counterparts.

Environmentally-Friendly Power Train

The new 2.4L MiVEC*3 engine is a clear nod to the environmental changes that have occurred across the world, and the consumers demand for a more environmentally-friendly alternative to a petrol-chugging truck of the by-gone days. This new engine allows many more miles per gallon than its predecessors, features a top speed of 125mph and with 133 horsepower and a torque figure of 317 at RPM, the Triton certainly packs a punch compared to its rivals.

The Mitsubishi Triton 2015 model also features a number of added extras in the security department, featuring a sturdy and durable chassis that also employs the RISE 2 impact safety body, with high levels of safety improvements built on Mitsubishi’s years of progress in that department.

A Smooth and Comfortable Ride

The ride of the Mitsubishi Triton is smooth and comfortable thanks to the new diesel engine, combined with the suspension optimization that Mitsubishi has made to this vehicle. The Triton certainly feels like an everyday car, which for a large utility truck like this is a huge achievement.

All of the customization options will be employed as standard in all regions the car is to be sold in, featuring cab layout customization, a choice of different commercial and private additions to the back tray and rear of the truck, making it the perfect option for any tradesman or commercial user looking for a workhorse of a vehicle that packs a punch and is also environmentally friendly. 

5 Key Tips on Choosing the Perfect Mitsubishi Dealership

Buying a new car can often be one of the most frustrating tasks in modern times – enough to drive you round the bend. With so many new and used cars to choose from, finding the ideal Mitsubishi car to suit your needs may be the least of your worries. Finding affordable financing options as well as warranty and servicing plans will play a key role in finding the perfect Mitsubishi dealership. Melbourne is home to one of the best Mitsubishi car dealers in the continent, so setting a standard that others can only follow gives you a baseline of quality to look out for.

1. The Initial Cost Factor

We are all after an affordable car to run, but it is the initial outlay of costs that makes purchasing a new car feel daunting. Financing comes in to save the day, with multiple options available over the course of a short period of time or for a few years to come. Whilst finding a loan at your bank might be harder than it used to be, choosing a financing package at your local Mitsubishi dealership could offer you a great Mitsubishi finance deal.

Once you have paid the initial deposit, you will be able to sign a financing agreement that allows you to pay for your vehicle over a number of months or even years. Most dealers offer several different financing options to choose from, giving you a chance to shop around after getting a quote. The perfect dealership will be able to offer you multiple financing options with added extras and upgrades on the more worthwhile deals.

2. The Range Of Cars On Offer

It may well be a great way to bring in customers by specialising in one particular model of car, but real choice comes from a range. Choosing a Mitsubishi dealership that offers a range of new and used Mitsubishi cars, as well as a facility for upgrades, repairs and service is a great start. Whilst you may think that a smaller dealer may be able to offer a more personalised service, the larger dealerships can offer a much greater choice all-around.

3. An Official Licensed Dealership

Buying a new or used Mitsubishi car from an officially licensed Mitsubishi dealership has many benefits attached to it. Not only are you guaranteed that regular services and repairs that may need to be carried out in the future are going to be of high quality, official Mitsubishi dealerships can offer a range of Mitsubishi spare parts that are made specifically for each part needed. The parts you buy will fit perfectly, and will often carry a warranty or guarantee for the parts and labour.

4. Local Service, Friendly Staff And Superior Knowledge

Many people choose to buy their car from a local dealership because of that simple fact: they are local. Local folk is more likely to understand the needs of the surrounding areas better, the types of vehicles that are popular as well as understanding the economy of the local area. Financing options may be geographically based to not allow the local community to be priced out of the car market.

5. The Deals Of The Day

Whilst friendly service and a great range of cars to choose from may be a factor that changes your mind, stand-out deals play a big role in finding a great price on your new car. As long as you read all of the small print and understand the financing options available to you, some of those great deals can be found all across the country. Keep an eye out for extended warranty and guarantees, as well as all-inclusive parts and service packages to keep you on the road and enjoying your new car.
