The local arm of Mitsubishi has announced pricing for its new Triton ute, positioning itself as a more affordable alternative compared to its rivals.
Orders for the model are now available on Mitsubishi New Zealand’s website, with its arrival expected in the early stages of 2024.
Starting off the line-up is the two-wheel drive GLX single cab chassis priced at $38,690 plus on-road costs. This is followed by the two-wheel drive GLX double cab chassis for $41,990, but if you want a wellside tray, it’ll cost you $43,990.
The GLX is also offered with four-wheel drive as a single cab chassis for $43,990, a club cab chassis for $46,740, and a club cab with a wellside for $48,740. A four-wheel drive double cab chassis is available for $48,740 or with a wellside for $50,740.
All GLX variants come with cloth seats, a 9-inch infotainment screen, a 7-inch gauge cluster, a 360-degree surround view camera, adaptive cruise control, eight airbags, a locking tailgate, manual rear diff lock, halogen headlights and daytime running lights (DRLs), and more as standard.
Smack bang in the middle of the range is the GLX-R which is a step up from the entry-level model in terms of features, those of which include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights and DRLs, double stitched cloth seats, dual-zone climate control, a wireless phone charger, and keyless entry with a push-button start.
Pricing for the two-wheel drive GLX-R double cab chassis is at $44,990, followed by a wellside variant for $46,990. Both are offered with four-wheel drive, priced at $51,990 and $53,990 respectively.
At the top of the range sits the VRX which grants you a black body kit and wheels, as well as a heated leather steering wheel and seats, as well as orange stitching.
The two-wheel drive VRX double cab chassis is priced at $49,990 plus on-road costs, while a wellside tray will cost you a bit extra at $51,990. Four-wheel drive versions of both models are also available for $57,990 and $59,990 respectively.
No matter what model you go for, a 2.4-litre twin-turbocharged diesel producing 150kW and 470Nm of torque can be found under the bonnet, enough to tow 3500kg. The engine is mated exclusively to an automatic six-speed gearbox.
Customers who opt for the GLX and GLX-R can select from a palette of colours, including white, silver, blue, bronze, and red, while the VRX is exclusively offered in black, grey, white diamond, and orange.
