Mitsubishi Triton VGT Adventure price up by RM2k

Mitsubishi Triton VGT Adventure 12

The Mitsubishi Triton VGT Adventure has had its price revised to RM110,218 with on-the-road (OTR) costs sans insurance – an increase of close to RM2,000. At launch, the same variant retailed for RM108,274 inclusive of OTR costs without insurance. The reason, provided by Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia (MMM), is due to the volatile foreign exchange situation.

While the Triton VGT Adventure suffers from a price hike, MMM has stated that it will maintain “the prices of other models until the first quarter of 2016, as announced.” Despite carrying a heftier price tag, the Mitsubishi Triton VGT Adventure is now available with a complimentary Adventure Sports Bar with every purchase plus a RM2,000 rebate. Alternatively, customers can also opt for a RM3,500 cash rebate and forgo the sports bar.

Launched in May 2015, the CBU from Thailand Mitsubishi Triton is available in five flavours with a choice of three engines. The Triton Quest kicks things off with a 2.5L DOHC common rail diesel engine pumping out 110 PS and 200 Nm. Moving up, the Triton M/T gets a a 2.5 litre common rail turbodiesel with 136 PS and 324 Nm. A five-speed manual sends power to the rear in both models.

The VGT variants, including the Adventure variant, is powered by a 2.5 litre variable geometry turbo engine with 178 PS and 400 Nm – a five-speed manual or automatic is available. Prices begin at RM67,604 for the Quest while the non-VGT Triton M/T is priced at RM83,163. The VGT M/T is priced at RM92,115 while the VGT A/T goes for RM98,550. All prices are inclusive of OTR costs sans insurance.
