Mitsubishi Triton V Double Cab Pick Up (facelift ) 2.4L D4 (181 Hp) Automatic

The Mitsubishi Triton V Double Cab Pick-Up, specifically the facelifted version introduced in 2019, represents a significant iteration of Mitsubishi’s globally popular mid-size pickup truck. While not widely sold in the United States – Mitsubishi largely exited the US market in 2006 – the Triton (sold as the Mitsubishi L200 in many international markets) is a mainstay in Asia, Australia, Europe, and Latin America. This generation, the fifth, focuses on blending robust workhorse capability with improved comfort and technology, aiming to appeal to both commercial and private buyers. The 2019 facelift brought styling updates, enhanced safety features, and refinements to the 2.4-liter diesel engine.

Mitsubishi Triton V Double Cab Pick-Up (2019 Facelift)

The Triton V Double Cab Pick-Up caters to a segment demanding versatility. It’s designed to handle demanding tasks like hauling and towing, while also providing a comfortable and practical cabin for passengers. The “Double Cab” configuration offers seating for five, making it suitable for families or work crews. The 2019 facelift aimed to modernize the Triton’s appearance and improve its overall competitiveness in a crowded market segment dominated by the Toyota Hilux, Nissan Navara, and Ford Ranger (outside of North America).

Engine & Performance

The 2019 Mitsubishi Triton V Double Cab Pick-Up is powered by a 2.4-liter (2442 cm³ or 149.02 cu. in.) inline-four cylinder diesel engine, designated the 4N15. This engine produces 181 horsepower (Hp) at 3500 rpm and 430 Newton-meters (317.15 lb.-ft.) of torque at 2500 rpm. The engine utilizes a turbocharger with an intercooler to enhance performance and efficiency. Mitsubishi’s MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control) technology is employed to optimize valve timing, improving both power delivery and fuel economy. Power is delivered to the rear wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. The weight-to-power ratio is 10.2 kg/Hp, and the weight-to-torque ratio is 4.3 kg/Nm, indicating a reasonable balance between engine output and vehicle mass. Combined fuel consumption is rated at 8.4 liters per 100 kilometers (28 US mpg or 33.6 UK mpg), with CO₂ emissions of 220 grams per kilometer.

Design & Features

The Triton V Double Cab Pick-Up features a traditional pickup truck body style with a separate chassis construction, known for its durability and off-road capability. The 2019 facelift included revisions to the front fascia, including a redesigned grille, headlights, and bumper, giving it a more modern and aggressive appearance. The interior received updates as well, with improved materials and a revised dashboard layout. Key features include a spacious cabin with seating for five, a functional cargo bed, and a range of comfort and convenience features. Safety features, enhanced in the facelift, include ABS (Anti-lock Braking System). The vehicle’s dimensions are substantial, measuring 5305 mm (208.86 in.) in length, 1815 mm (71.46 in.) in width, and 1780 mm (70.08 in.) in height, with a wheelbase of 3000 mm (118.11 in.). Ground clearance is a respectable 205 mm (8.07 in.), contributing to its off-road prowess. Approach, departure, and ramp-over angles are 30°, 22°, and 25° respectively, further enhancing its ability to tackle challenging terrain.
