Verdict
The Mitsubishi Triton costs RM101,980 against the Peugeot Landtrek’s RM120,072, and its 179 hp/430 Nm 2.4-litre diesel gives it a clear 29 hp and 80 Nm edge. But this is a two-seat, two-door work truck with a six-speed manual, where the Peugeot brings five seats, four doors and a six-speed automatic. The Landtrek also has six airbags, a 360-degree camera and 18-inch alloys, while annual road tax is RM404 versus RM794. For a Malaysian buyer carrying people as well as gear, the Peugeot’s extra RM18,092 buys meaningful daily-use kit; the Triton is the cheaper, stronger load-focused choice.
Pick the Mitsubishi Triton if you want the lower RM101,980 entry price, 430 Nm of torque and a six-speed manual work-oriented pickup.
Pick the Peugeot Landtrek if you need five seats, a six-speed automatic and substantially fuller safety and convenience equipment.
