Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia (MMM) has introduced a
new variant for the Triton line-up – the Triton VGT AT GL – which is priced at
RM 103,800 on-the-road without insurance.
As with all Triton VGT variants, this new one is
powered by 2.4 litre MIVEC turbodiesel engine with 181 PS at 3,500 rpm and 430
Nm of torque at 2,500 rpm. In this instance, the engine is paired with
Mitsubishi’s Easy Select 4WD system and a five-speed automatic transmission.
The VGT AT GL is based on the VGT AT, and comes
equipped with a dark chrome radiator grille, 16-inch alloy wheels, automatic
climate control and fabric seats. Even so, several parts of the equipment list
have been revised to reflect the new variant’s lower price point.
For starters, there are halogen reflector headlights
instead of bi-xenon units, while LED daytime running lights, front fog lamps
and side mirror indicators have been removed. Keyless entry is also omitted
here, and the head unit is now a double-DIN system without a touchscreen. The
speaker count is also down to four from the six that was found in the VGT AT.
Unchanged here is the safety kit, which continues to
feature two airbags (front driver and passenger), ABS, EBD, brake assist,
Active Stability Control, traction control, Hill-Start Assist, Trailer Stability
Assist, reverse sensor and rear Isofix child seat anchors.
