Mitsubishi Triton Athlete Genting Hill Climb - Paddle Shifters make it more fun? / YS Khong Driving

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

When the current Mitsubishi Triton was premiered a couple of years ago, I was actually quite impressed with the specifications that included some advanced safety features - by now many of the others have caught up, but it is thanks to Mitsubishi for having started the ball rolling in this new safety direction.
Somehow, we never got to test drive this generation of the Triton, until recently when their marketing team sent us an invite to check out the Triton Athlete - however the MCO took over and we had to delay the test drive for about 7 months - some of our viewers had actually asked for this test drive as far back as last year - we have the hill climb video here - please do enjoy the video and let us have your comments below.
And if you have not subscribed, please do so, so that we can continue to give you more amazing content. Thanks you guys and girls for your continuous support for our channel.

    Excellent video Mr Khong. thanks for your great videos and excellent channel!! I drive the 5th Gen L200/Triton for work, and i agree its an amazing Pickup Truck! Handling feels more car like than a truck, and it corners more steadily some of those MPVs such as the Toyota Wish that i also driven before in the past. On flat road, the 2.4L, 5 Speed Auto version that i drove is pretty fast too, achieving a 0-100 time in about 9.2 seconds.

    Hi Uncle, u should have tried the 4H function during the drive. The triton then becomes like a full time 4WD. Thats the speciality of Mitsubishi 's Super Select 2. And yes, the handling is amazing for a truck. All Tritons year 2016 above comes with Super Select 2 in Australia , Thai , NZ. Over here its only offered in the high premium variant. Sad. And its proven to be durable.
