Engineering highlights of the new 2024 Mitsubishi Triton ute

Mitsubishi promises the new 2024 Triton ute will deliver more power at lower rpm, with its newly engineered power unit generating 470Nm peak torque at just 1500rpm to 2750rpm.

Its new 2.4-litre twin turbo diesel engine features ‘twin stage’ turbocharging– one small turbo delivers a fast response at low revs, and a larger turbo boosts the top end to develop 150kW of power at 3500rpm.

Extensive work has been completed locally to tune the 2024 Mitsubishi Triton for Australia's unique driving conditions including calibrating the new electric power steering system which will be introduced on Triton for the first time.

Working in close collaboration with a global team of R&D engineers, local product specialists evaluated the 2024 Mitsubishi Triton against the best utes in the country to help determine the optimum setting for the Australian steering and suspension tune.

What 4WD system does the 2024 Mitsubishi Triton use?

The 2024 Mitsubishi Triton GLS and GSR models are equipped with the brand's Super Select 4WD-II system, offering both two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. Seven available drive modes have been calibrated for use on differing terrains - normal for tarmac roads, Eco mode, Gravel, Snow, Mud, Sand and Rock

The new Triton continues to offer the ability to switch from 2WD to 4WD on the fly, delivering traction where needed on slippery surfaces.

Added to the Mitsubishi Triton's offroad arsenal for 2024 is Brake Active Yaw Control system to improve traction and response. This system calculates optimal yaw angles based on current driver operation and road condition, directing torque between the inner and outer wheels by using the braking system.
