The 2019 Mitsubishi Triton hits the Malaysian market with two diesel engine options: the 2.4-litre MIVEC turbo diesel (code 4N15) and the 2.5-litre turbo diesel (code 4D56). The 2.4L comes in both high and low power tunes - the high-output variant pushes out 181 hp and a meaty 430 Nm of torque, while the lower-powered one delivers 150 hp and 400 Nm. As for the 2.5L, it's rated at 178 hp and 400 Nm. Both engines have built a solid rep for reliability and fuel efficiency, making them well-suited for Malaysia's diverse road conditions and hauling needs. The Triton gets a 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox, paired with the Super Select 4WD-II system to boost its off-road credentials. For Malaysian drivers who log long miles or regularly carry heavy loads, the Triton's engine setup strikes a good balance between power delivery and ruggedness. All in all, it's a practical workhorse worth having on your shortlist.
