Mitsubishi Triton 2020 review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2019
- If you're thinking the 2020 Mitsubishi Triton looks just like the 2019 model, you're dead right. And it's not just from the rear either, the front is identical too, but it has been updated, barely eight months since the big update we saw at the start of this year.
Mal Flynn road tests and reviews the 2020 Mitsubishi Triton.
You can read the full review at carsguide.com.au but just so that you can understand the score at the end here's the breakdown of the eight criterion:
Does it represent good value for the price? What features does it come with? 9/10
Is there anything interesting about its design? 9/10
How practical is the space inside? 8/10
What are the key stats for the engine and transmission? 8/10
How much fuel does it consume? 8/10
What safety equipment is fitted? What safety rating? 8/10
What does it cost to own? What warranty is offered? 8/10
What's it like to drive? 7/10
Verdict
It's good to see Mitsubishi refining the product so quickly, and the Triton represents a good value, quality ute. It'd just be nice to see the most important active safety gear fitted across the range.

I always thought the hilix was the best pickup but my little encounter with the triton has changed my opinion
After having this (2019) for 3 months and goes back to drive the (2018) hilux, i feels the hilux is so under equipped and so much more expensive.
This UTE seems to be representing great value !
Upgraded to a 2020 triton, after testing ranger, hilux and dmax. There’s a reason they own the private buyer market - so much better than the competition when you drive them And compare them all, and that’s before you compare the price tags! Do yourself a favour and drive them all yourself and compare. A lot of these company reviews have a real bias. Absolutely love my triton.
Mitsubishi is the first Japanese manufacturing car company in Japan 1870 heavy industry and 1917 and Mitsubishi also the best rally car championship in the world since 1940
I have driven all other 4x4 brands and must say this, the Mitsubishi 4x4 chassis is the best what gravel and muddy roads concern and been proofed in all mines where I follow the Company trucks into the mining areas with limited roads
It's just a pitty it has a stiff hard ride.
@@T1000.Android in comparison to ?
I bought the basic cab chassis with auto. No need for all the extras. Still gets 5 star ancap so very happy with my lot.
You keep telling yourself that ;)
Don’t worry I will for the next 7 years until the warranty expires. When I’m not driving the Triton I drive my brand new LC 200 Sahara with all the bells and whistles. Best of both worlds eh mate...
Have they fixed the 3rd gear problem? We have 5of them n all have problems with 3rd all fixed under warranty
hello...do you know which brand transmission the 6 speed manual is?..is it Jatco or Aisin?
Well done Mitsubishi. This and the Delica van could be the last two good vehicles Mitsubishi makes. As a Yank, I'm sad I can't try either. I do have an Australia road trip planned in 2023, though!
Brendan A. MacWade awsome Mate, try to get to the Kimberley region in Western Australia. You’ll love it.
See you then Brendan.
Looking at a twincab for my long service grand tour in 3 years time. Triton is at the top of the stack.
If the Pajero Sport I own is anything to go by (which is based on this), this new one is going to be hard to beat, tech and specs-wise. The Super Select II 4WD is such a boon on- or off-road. Towing is nice and strong, off-road comfort is good, doesn't get scraped as easily as a Hilux/ Fortuner nor does it scramble for traction like the Colorado/Trailblazer does and has enough grunt to reach upwards of 180kph even with 4WD mode engaged. I love mine so much that I'm inclined to purchase a GLS-P Triton.
Just in case anyone is interested/concerned. I hear a lot of people complaining that the tub liner is ill-fitting and it is difficult to loop around ratchet straps and thicker lengths of rope to the tie-down points. Yes, for a little while it is, but after lugging a lot of crap around in my triton for the last 6 months i've noticed it it has gotten noticeably easier. Ratchet hooks loop in and come off more easily that they used to and when taking them off I'm not having one hand on the strap and another pushing down the tub-liner. Wether this be because the constant [and demanding] use has loosened the liner a little bit or something else at play I can't really tell you. Anyway, just something to bear in mind and don't let it turn you away.
The Triton are very competitively priced that's y it would be on top of my list while considering a ute
Even more bang for buck, unreal... well done to Mitsubishi, such a great ute! and No Toyota DPF issues or Ford warranty issues either....
The Triton hasn't been squeaky clean in the past, with two recalls for previous versions in the past three years, but the MR has been so far so good. Cheers, Mal Flynn
@CarsGuide The recall was for the mq was only side steps corroding i believe?? Hardly a recall unlike the other manufactures where there cars can catch on fire, cracking rotors, brakelines tearing and others with known major dpf issues...these are much more sinister... plus i was refering the new MR model anyway 👌👌
LSA711 actually, the triton has had to get revised intake manifolds in the past due to the amount of spooge the EGR generated, and has had plenty of DPF issues. I know this for a fact as I worked for Mitsubishi / Nissan dealer. Plus the super select system has issues with the little solenoids and actuators that operate it. They are a good thing overall though, far better than a Navara.
R Soul, where is the official recall or warranty issues on this ?? I have never heard of that before, and perhaps it was only some isolated vehicles you may have worked on... every car and every manufacture will have small warranty claims, however Factory Recalls or ACCC noted claims are what id look at, and as said before the only noted claim is the old mq side steps corroding.
LSA711 they were fitted to vehicles that carboned up to change the position of the MAP sensor, was a few years ago so I cannot remember specific recall details, but we did plenty of them so was hardly an isolated issue. It still wouldn’t stop me from buying the current model as the engine is completely different. A lot of the problems people are having these days with anything fitted with a DPF are down to fuel quality, engine oil quality, driving habits and servicing, it’s not solely a Toyota problem.
The sports bar is no great loss, saves you throwing it in the bin when you fit a canopy, or a tray. The rear diff lock is a much better inclusion. Thanks for the update, gentlemen 👍
Always a pleasure R! Couldn't agree more. A shame it wasn't replaced by a proper header bar come to think of it. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Very nice car.. Tell me something. When we put 4llc ? How we use it
My MQ has been great .. think the new ones will be high on the list come upgrade time.
Why people still buy a hilux has me stumped.

@@braveheart2785 yep , 40 year old Hiluxs , about the last time Toyota built something decent 😁
Dependability and best resale value
Because they don't break
@@johanlabuschagne377 Pending class action for dpf defects , epa fines for smoke . DPF failures due to poor engine design , dust ingress into airbox , un balanced driveshaft , leaf springs are made of butter .The market is flooded with hiluxs just out of their pathetic 3 year warranty , wander why that is .
Just waiting for my GLS Premium to be delivered
So basicly for those of us (me) who already bought the GLS Premium 2019 model, this 'update' doesn't concern us XD
Unless you've been yearning for a black sports bar and spending an extra $500, you should be completely satisfied. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Me too. I am picking up a new 2019 GLS model this Friday 😳
BUMMER.
Just collected mine today. I waited for this new MY 20 GLS over the MY 19 GLS. The locker got me. Much more spec.
Glad I waited an extra 5 weeks to get this model.
Don’t care about the chrome rear bar as a canopy will be going on.
After testing the Ranger, Dmax and Hilux, this is where my money was.
Happy customer.
Hi. I just got my Triton Auto standard here in Malaysia sadly it doesn't go with the rear diff lock but all in all. I'm very satisfied! Looks, power and suspension!
This will be my next Ute. I will never buy a Hilux, it’s over price.
When are we due for 2020 refresh of Volkswagen Amarok, Ranger, Hilux etc ?
HiLux and Amarok have already been treated to 2020 updates, and Ranger will hit showrooms in December. We've covered all the details as news, so check out the site. Cheers, Mal Flynn
I prefer this to hilux and ranger
Would you explain why?
@@rodorozco9453 We don't all need to like the same two utes.
@@BrettWilliamson I totally agree. I was thinking about buying one of those two pickups and for that reason, I was just trying to get more information about why the people with more experience than I, prefer either one over the other.
Did we ask?
@@goosebee WTF? I am telling you!
Well done mate's
This should come to the US
Wish Mitsubishi south Africa would have these options and different vehicles available for us?
Fair point, it is surprising to see you get just four variants next our our 22! Cheers, Mal Flynn
@@carsguide Yes, In New Zealand we also have limited versions and we don't get a rear diff lock with our SS2 models (VRX and Black Edition). The Easy Select models do get the Rear diff lock though..more for farmers! Do you think the SS2 models without the locker is at a big disadvantage?
In love with this machine #mitsubishitriton trying hard to own one.😭😭
How many 20 yo storm still active today?
Heaps
Which model variant is this?
So, i don't live in Australia and i just don't understand: A fully loaded Mitsubishi Triton, with all the modern safety features + a 360 degree camera and 7yrs warranty for 50k AUD and still isn't the most sold ute?! The top of the line Ranger or Hilux cost 7k or 10k more and I think they don't have all of these specs.
Ford and Toyota ensured contracts for selling fleets to companies more than 15 years ago, so these companies just renew fleets with them without bothering to see specs of the competition. These fleets take a big chunk of the market. Also, American companies will always prefer Ford.
Third reason is loyalty from old Toyota consumers, even though the actual Hilux is expensive, not well equipped (not even in safety) and have underpowered and inefficient engines.
@@ELVERTGONNE Now it makes more sense! Thanks for the explanation. I live in Albania (Europe) and drive a Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero IV. Very reliable, my father bought it new 10 yrs ago and now has 227 thousand km.We've been all over the country, which has 70% mountains and in many nearby countries and we've been never stuck in mud/snow or rocky road. Toyotas are great too but very expensive. Cheers!
More like 20k more
Has anyone consider buying the 2020 new dmax?
@@e.c.5100
Is it a 3.2d?
In that case you should check the little chain guide for the timing chain between the camchaft gears☝
And when you change it you could check the valve clearens when you are there in the same time.
(I'am a Mitsubishi technician/mechanic since almost 20yrs.. and the Pajero is awesome! I have one My self 😊)
why Mitsubishi rear diff lock turn off the traction control ? anybody care to explain?
I'm pretty sure it is that way with all the utes.
Just realised that the wheel arches are from the Mitsubishi raider
Thankfully, this is where the similarities end. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Wish this was available in the USA
I need 1 in my life :( I have a lancer black edition though xD
Kereta idamanku.. One day i will buy u 😆
This will be my ute next year. Waiting for the special edition raptor like 😬😬😬😬😬😬😬
mmm it ain't coming to oz
Imagin having the best Ute in its class in 2007 and then making the motor smaller (Mitsubishi triton gla 3.2 did)
Has anyone here fitted an 1800mm tray to triton with a tow bar and had any issues even with a tow bar extender?
Anyone fitted a 2 inch lift to there new triton and had issues?
King of highway Dakar 🏆
We have a new Triton bought in July 2020.. brakes are stuffed already ... under 10,000k an not covered under warranty
What happened?
@@alteregos910 Used the brake lever as a footrest perhaps. How many times have you seen people travelling along with their brake lights on.
Looks much tougher!! 👌👌😎😎😎 than RAM
mitsubishi triton- Reliability
Ima get the foot bar to
3:23 why would you want more gears? More gears means it has no torque or a narrow band of usable power/torque. Should be saying "unfortunately it doesn't have a 5 speed because they threw a tiny 2.4 in instead of a 3.0".
Would a 1.5 with 20 gear's be better? No.
That place seems huge i wanna go there
You should! The launch event was held around Parachilna in the Flinders Ranges, South Australia. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Where have the sidesteps gone?
For the amount you save compared to the competition, you can fit some nice bar work, a canopy, and probably still have change.
Excellent question I actually.forgot to address in the video. Mitsubishi removed them from the launch vehicles to enable us to cover the planned off-road route. Anyone who's off-roaded with a dual cab with sidesteps will understand their inherent tradeoff. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Thanks Mal, it seemed like a glaring omission for their top selling 4x4 not to have sidesteps
Maf sebelumnya saya cuman kasih masukan... Saya memang penggemar mobil mitsubishi terutama strada triton & pajero spts.. Tp tolong injeksi atau injektornya di kasih kuat.. Karena sy pernah dlm wkt 1 thn 3 kali gnti injektor.. Coba aja bayangkan 1 kali ganti 20 jutaan karena 1 bijinya 3jt lebih blm ongkos mekanik.. 2 jt kali 3 kali ganti dlm setahu sudah 60 jt... Tolong pak injektornya dikasih bandel lg. Tks.
Great ute, have no issues with mine. Toyota and rangers are so overrated.
Phill 007 the ranger is the kinda car brought by upper middle class to show off their small cocks.
good looking truck too bad we don’t get them in the states
Air con a novel approach, toyota already do it and have done since 05 in the cruiser
this or the LDV Trailrider 2
Disponível no Brasil só em 2021 😩😩
Isso é uma vergonha
I like this truck and they need to come out with it in the USA...but I hate when these people already doing a review video want people to go to another video to watch another video of a review on the same thing!! They waste time doing a 4 minute video then make another one that is 10 minutes longer....wtf
Thanks for the feedback Ray. To be honest we want you to watch all our videos, but the choice is yours. We may follow up this video with a review of a particular variant, but this will be our only video covering the 2020 Triton range. Cheers, Mal Flynn
But when my grandfather die he going to give me the 2020 mishabishi triton gls
There's massive drawback with the triton all you motoring people miss, im just on 6ft tall and in the back seat my head touches the roof, the sales staff even told me that it's lost them sales. Hilux 1 finger gap most same so if you have mates 6.1 or taller good luck finding a ute with head room in the rear triton lowest. Of all.
2:14 this g is spitting keep on putting it at 2:13 and check him release! LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOLOLOLO
This triton is famous at the philipines end the price over a milion they use fo adventure even a storm end thes 4×4 triton faster than ford rapter end hilux nissan navara😋😋😋
Can i ask about your opinion in dmax performance?
@@grangergaming9479 dmax engine last for 20 years but doesn't have much technology orange specs as others
No one can beat triton when it comes the chassis
Gayton!
It’s a truck not a car fool
Sucks mitsubish
What's your prefered drive then ?
His momma Toyota Prius 😂😂
Mmmm shitboxes. Have they stopped blowing engines yet. Or have they improved. Ugly car povo waste of money
These tritons don't blow engines. 100x better than the older ml/MN.

great ute! you seem to have made up your mind even before you would have viewed the video, so why even bother to in the first place.
