2023 Mitsubishi Triton VI Single Cab 2.4 Hyper Power (184 Hp) 4WD

The Mitsubishi Triton VI Single Cab 2.4 Hyper Power (184 Hp) 4WD, launched in September 2023, represents the latest iteration of Mitsubishi’s globally recognized pickup truck. While not directly sold in the United States, the Triton (known as the L200 in many international markets) is a significant player in the Asia-Pacific region, Europe, and Latin America, competing with models like the Toyota Hilux, Nissan Navara, and Ford Ranger. This sixth-generation model focuses on blending robust workhorse capability with improved comfort and technology, catering to both commercial and personal use. The Single Cab configuration specifically targets buyers prioritizing cargo space and utility over passenger capacity.

Mitsubishi Triton VI: A Global Workhorse

The Triton has a long history, evolving through several generations to meet the changing demands of the pickup truck market. The VI generation represents a substantial redesign, incorporating a new platform and updated powertrains. The Single Cab variant, with its two-door layout, is particularly popular in regions where fleet and agricultural applications are common. It offers a practical and durable solution for businesses and individuals needing a reliable vehicle for hauling and off-road work. The “Hyper Power” designation refers to the enhanced performance characteristics of the 2.4-liter diesel engine.

Engine & Performance

Powering the Triton VI Single Cab 2.4 Hyper Power is a 2.4-liter inline-four cylinder diesel engine, designated the 4N16. This engine produces 184 horsepower at 3500 rpm and 430 Newton-meters (317.15 lb.-ft.) of torque between 2250 and 2500 rpm. This output translates to a power-to-weight ratio of 75.3 horsepower per liter. The engine utilizes a turbocharger and intercooler to enhance performance and efficiency. Fuel is delivered via a diesel commonrail direct injection system, optimizing combustion and reducing emissions. The engine is longitudinally mounted at the front of the vehicle. A six-speed manual transmission is standard, delivering power to all four wheels via a part-time four-wheel drive system. The drivetrain is configured to primarily drive the rear wheels, with the front wheels engaging as needed through an electrically or mechanically operated clutch. This setup provides both on-road efficiency and off-road capability.
