Mitsubishi Motors has released teaser pictures of its new XRT Concept which previews the all-new Triton pickup truck to be launched later this year.
The XRT was unveiled at this week's 44th Bangkok International Motor Show which runs until April 2.
The Triton is Mitsubishi Motors' top-selling model manufactured at the Laemchabang factory in Thailand and the company's global strategic vehicle exported to about 150 countries around the world. With its first full redesign in around nine years, the all-new Triton will be the sixth generation of the brand's one tonner.
After being launched in Thailand this year it will be released sequentially in other global markets including South Africa.
The partially camouflaged XRT Concept is characterised by what Mitsubishi calls a “fierce expression” on the front and a “robust bonnet” that continues to the side with bold, horizontally-themed styling.
Further, the concept vehicles has front and rear over fenders as well as mud-terrain tyres. The camouflage includes sides with a graphic of the 10-parallel line design from Mitsubishi's Ralliart motorsport division.
