New Bi-Turbo drivetrain boosts power and torque 

New-Gen Triton has a new 2.4-litre Bi-Turbo diesel engine developed by Mitsubishi Motors. This power unit employs two turbochargers, one small for fast response at low revs, and a larger turbo to fortify the top end – to develop 150kW of power at 3500rpm, with a 470Nm peak torque figure that’s available from just 1500rpm to 2750rpm.

The new engine and gearbox combination is designed to produce exceptional response and low-rev pulling power and a linear torque delivery throughout the rev range, while also improving efficiency over the previous generation. A new engine Auto Stop & Go System further supports efficiency.

Fuel economy and CO2, according to ADR 81/02, are listed as follows:
