Cost of ownership
What is the running and servicing costs of a Mitsubishi Triton?
All Mitsubishi Triton’s need servicing every 12 Months months or 15,000km km, whichever comes first.
How does the 2023 Mitsubishi Triton drive?
Our expert take on Mitsubishi Triton drivability.
The engine is refined and quiet by class standards, with the body and steering wheel at idle largely free of vibration.
While it’s down on power and torque compared to a few competitors it’s worth nothing the Triton is lighter – at 1990kg, it weighs 220kg less than a Ranger and 55kg less than a HiLux.
It pulls along fine albeit gruffly under a heavy throttle, and sits happily at 110km/h at about 1800rpm in sixth, quietly enough to make phone calls without necessitating a loud voice.
It uses leaf springs at the rear like most pickups – Nissan Navara aside – and like most the body jiggles and the ride pogos a little when unladen, while corrugations are felt in your hands through the hydraulically assisted steering.
It’s not as composed as a Ranger or as sharp-handling as the almost SUV-like Amarok, but it’s also far from a class outlier. Indeed, the steering is nicely weighted and consistent, and the Triton’s relative lightness makes it feel almost nimble at times.
The maximum payload is 910kg, which is 81kg less than the Ranger’s and 45kg less than a HiLux’s. Its gross combination mass of 5885kg means that at maximum payload you can still legally tow anything up to 2985kg.
If there’s one obvious potential shortcoming it’s the particularly long rear overhang. For instance the Triton is only 77mm shorter than a Ranger overall yet 220mm shorter between the wheels. This potentially makes it a smidgen trickier to balance loads and gives it a large departure angle when off-roading.
On the upside, this three-metre wheelbase gives the Triton a smaller-than-average 11.8m turning circle, which is particularly useful in urban conditions or navigating a cluttered building site, but also has useful applications on tight trails.

2023 Mitsubishi Triton vs other Ute's to consider
The Triton competes with the Ford Ranger and Toyota HiLux, but it's not necessarily as polished as those utes. Instead, the Triton offers almost the same level of luxury and performance for significantly less money.
At the bottom end of the range, the pared-back Triton goes head-to-head with 1.9-litre versions of the Mazda BT-50 and Isuzu D-Max.
At the top end, not only does the Triton take on the Ranger XLT and HiLux SR, it battles fully-loaded versions of the Great Wall Cannon.
Should you buy the 2023 Mitsubishi Triton
Is this the right car for you? Out experts buy or not guide.
The Triton has two big selling points: its price, and its excellent Super Select four-wheel drive system.
On the price front, it offers almost all the equipment and capability of a range-topping HiLux and Ranger, but has a sticker in the $50,000 price range at the very top end.
Super Select makes the Triton easier to drive on wet roads, by allowing owners to use all-wheel drive on paved roads instead of limiting four-wheel drive to gravel or sand.
The car's compact proportions (relative to the rest of the dual-cab class) make it friendlier to drive in town, too.
