“At the competitive price of R469,995 – The Triton Double Cab GL features an intercooled turbodiesel engine, with 100kW<\/strong> of power and 324Nm<\/strong> of peak torque, making the range more accessible than ever before,” said Mitsubishi.<\/p>\n

The new bakkie is exclusively available as a 4×2 with a six-speed transmission and offers 8.0 litres\/100km<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Triton GL includes an anti-lock braking system, electric brakeforce distribution (EBD) and child seat anchors, while creature comforts include keyless entry, central locking, an immobiliser, electric windows, an automatic air-conditioning system and a touchscreen with Android Auto or Apple Car play as an optional extra.<\/p>\n
