Agreed. I bought a Triton for this feature. My first car, a 1993 Pajero had this feature and no way would I go to something from the competition which only offers 2wd on the road. Major oversight in my opinion. Why Mitsubishi doesn't advertise this is beyond me.
If you can get over the chrome (I personally like the look) the GLS comes with 95% of the tech for alot less and worth the extra $ over the glx+ for the super select.
Slow steering? It's one of the most direct steering setups on the road and the motor is far from noisy. For a ute the cabin is quiet while while driving and overall handling is more like a car than most of the opposition.
I own a triton 2019 because it has the best 4x4 system and is the most lightweight ute which makes it much more comfortable even on bad streets! My wish would be a stock raptor like version… 👍❤️
When you breezed past towing capacities you should have made note of how much payload capacity the 3.5T towers can carry in the vehicle. It's not much, about 250kg. I think the Tron can carry 750 or there abouts at its 3100kgs. Not exactly misleading but not conveying the true story.
And it is going to be ruined now that it’s been announced that the Triton is going to be a redesigned Navara, so it will have the same unliked Navara chassis and drive train. This shows how stupid the Renault/Nissan alliance is, they take the most popular ute they have in their group of brands and dump it and make it be based on the worst ute on the market. Renault/Nissan has just handed GWM and LDV the platform to grow to the best of the rest in the ute segment quicker.

What happened to John Cadogan's review of this review? Despite his irritating manner, when you distil his videos down, he's generally on the money.

We need people like Cadogan as a check and balance to counter the inaccuracies all too common in this manufacturer biased (read funded) message.
A usual wheels critic, no experience driving an 4x4 but he’s the one critiquing it. Huh? What sought of road handling do you need to drive kids to school. It’s usually a 4km max drive on tarmac. Then superselect takes a few moments to work it’s still a mechanical action in the end, this is one of the most accomplished 4wd’s on the market, sorry I think your judgment was made with Trepidation to compare it to SUV’s is pretty foolish it has commercial grade suspension front and rear not at all an SUV.
Purchased a new Triton in 2021, 22,000km in and already requiring a new timing belt. Told it's not under warranty and will require $600 to replace. An item that should last up to 100,000km, lasting a fifth of its lifespans and not being covered under warranty on a new car is appalling. Service basically told me it's my problem and if I want it replaced I have to pay for it.
Ah I don't think these mitsi fan boys heard that Mitsubishi has folded and is going to be like the x class. Resale value will be peanuts for a triton/navara just like the failed x class/ navara
The GWM is definitely a consideration and so is the Ssangyong Musso.The big elephant in the room is the ownership issues affecting the company though it's looking positive in yerms of new suitors.The ultimate XLV can be had with a lot of kit for $43k without any negotiations.You could pick one for just over $40k.At the end of the day it boils down to what one requires out of a ute.Personally the Musso ticks all the boxes.
We are Loosing Mitsubishi from the UK, do not understand the reason behind their decision? their best selling Outlander can be obtained in the USA, very disappointing.

Super select is the game changer here. Seems crazy that most 4x4 utes are slip sliding all over wet roads in rear wheel drive.

Best 4x4 system on the market. But lacking the vital active cruise! Like most other new 2021 utes.

Incredibly misleading…
Yep struggling to see what other utes have that the Triton doesn't because he didn't bother to research the extras that the other utes do have.
I’m confused? What are you actually reviewing? You need to review your script. What are you doing?
If you need a real 4WD, go after Triton or DMax; if you are after leather seats and good hi-fi go after the others.

Hmm yes Triton was the value pick but the GWM Ute cannon L does what this Ute does for way less $ - GSR looks good but I’d rather 20k in the bank :)
I suspect Mitsubishi resale value might be better. Also known reliability is worth something.
Ah I don't think these mitsi fan boys heard that Mitsubishi has folded and is going to be like the x class. Resale value will be peanuts for a triton/navara just like the failed x class/ navara

I don’t know why but I’ve always found base variant of utes. Especially the Ranger and Triton.
We are Loosing Mitsubishi from the UK, do not understand the reason behind their decision? their best selling Outlander can be obtained in the USA, very disappointing.
Pollution issues, they aren’t making smaller vehicles so they don’t have the range to make for compliance’s
Good review, I am looking forward to your review of Pajero Sport GSR.
Mate I've got the black one of them and i love the thing . She is great to drive and tops on the NSW beaches or sand . However after putting ARB stuff on her , she is now SEXY 😮 great ute for me . And she can fit down narrow tracks without getting scratched 😊
Clearly Mitsubishi haven’t been paying their dues to Wheels Magazine = a heavily biased review with few actual facts. An opinion piece at best.
Does it have independent rear lockers ?
top model only i think, i want them as well
Is it true the next triton is going on the navarra platform?
That's the story... get some of that shit- box Nissan into the mix and you will need all and a bit more of that 10 warranty.
That is why i went ranger
Yes it is, full chassis and driveline from the Navara and a little Mitsubishi styling and that’s it.

for the same price you might aswell get the Dmax
