Mitsubishi has long been known for building stylish yet capable double cabs and it’s a shame that there aren’t more of them on our roads. This is mostly due to brand bias with the bulk of sales going to Ford, Toyota, and Isuzu. The Triton is not only good at its given task but looks great doing it.

The Mitsubishi Triton is a good car for people that want a double cab but want something a little different from what everyone else has. in the case of their halo model, the Extreme, you get everything that is good about the Triton with chunky aggressive styling.
Is the Mitsubishi Triton a good first car?
The size and overall price may deter newer drivers but if money is not a factor this could very well suit a young engineering student that does site work or new entrants into the construction industry.
Is the Mitsubishi Triton a good family car?
The Triton would suit a small family with an active lifestyle that needs to move around a lot of equipment. Leather seating, tech, and generous interior space make this an ideal choice.

Reviewer’s opinion
Objectively, the Triton is highly competitive in its market segment, and very good value for money. Maybe the only real reason why it’s not making a bigger impression on buyers is because they don’t really know about it, or don’t understand what makes it so compelling?
