The donkey old Mitsubishi Triton / L200 has been with us since 2004. Due to its age, the automaker will replace it with an all-new generation, which is slated to land in Australia by mid-2015. Still, there is some time left until the fourth-gen will hit the sack, leaving space for bye-bye special edition models.
One such limited-run model is the recently unveiled Mitsubishi Triton GLX-R Warrior, which will spawn a mere 300 copies, all of the to be made at Mitsubishi Motors Thailand’s Laem Chabang assembly plant.
Like any other Triton around, this one is powered by a 2.5-liter turbo diesel engine producing 131 kW (175 ponies) and 400 Nm (295 lb-ft) of torque, oomph sent to all four wheels of the pickup truck. Priced from just AUD 43,990 ($36,276 / €29,210 at current exchange rates), this ute comes pretty extensively equipped considering how much you're charged for it.
Available only in dual cab flavor, the GLX-R Warrior is mated to a five-speed manual transmission, while the optional five-speed automatic slush box hikes the AUD 43,990 sitcker to AUD 45,990 driveaway.
If our two cents were on the table, we’d spend that money on the all-new 2015 Mitsubishi Triton because the Triton GLX-R Warrior will certainly depreciate like a normal Triton despite its scarcity.
