Mitsubishi’s new Triton Bi-Turbo brings 150kW of power and 4x4 capability to the bakkie battle.
2026 is turning out to be an exciting year for bakkie fans, with a brand-new Toyota Hilux on the immediate horizon, along with a facelifted Isuzu D-Max, while Ford’s Ranger has also recently received some revisions.
Mitsubishi will also be vying for a slice of the action soon, with a more powerful Bi-Turbo model that is set to launch in the coming months.
The upgraded 2.4-litre engine produces 150kW, matching the Toyota Hilux’s 2.8 GD-6, while torque is listed at 470Nm between 1,500 and 2,750rpm. The Bi-Turbo will be available exclusively in 4x4 guise, with power channelled to all four wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission.
Customers can look forward to a feature-packed cabin.
