The new Mitsubishi L200 truck was launched in Thailand yesterday, where it is known as the Mitsubishi Triton.
The truck doesn’t look as aggressive as before, taking on some more futuristic design cues, with the new Mitsubishi corporate look nose.
It’s expected that a CBU model from Thailand will be brought in by Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia before the end of this year. Otherwise we’ll have to wait for CKDs next year.
The interior has a totally redesigned with a look that says sedan car more than truck.
According to Autoworld, the new Storm comes with 4 engine choices, with 3 of them being 2.5 litre turbodiesels and another 3.2 litre, likely to be a petrol. The turbodiesels employ common-rail injection technology. Power outputs range from 66 kW/90 ps and 196 Nm to 121 kW/165 ps and 321 Nm.
