New models - Mitsubishi - TritonMitsubishi updates Triton for 2026Connectivity and chassis revisions top changes to MY26 Mitsubishi Triton range7 Apr 2026 By MATT BROGAN MITSUBISHI has announced model year updates to its Triton light commercial utility range, the MY26 revision centred on the inclusion of Yamaha Performance Dampers, Mitsubishi Connect smartphone access, and refined front and rear suspension care of revised front spring rates and altered damper valving.
Due in showrooms this May, the MY26 Mitsubishi Triton range covers Single, Club, and Double Cab body styles with cab-chassis and pick-up style tray beds. Two- and four-wheel drive configurations remain available with pricing from $37,090 plus on-road costs – an increase of $2350 over the starting price of the outgoing line-up.
For the flagship GSR grade, Mitsubishi has introduced Yamaha Performance Dampers fitted horizontally across the chassis at the front and rear respectively. The arrangement is said to further improve body control and steering response, enhancing straight-line stability while at the same time reducing noise, vibration, and harshness.
Elsewhere in the range, the Triton now receives upgraded front and rear suspension. Up front, a lower spring rate and rubber body mounts are utilised in conjunction with Various Performance Setting valves inside the front and rear shock adsorbers.
The rear shock absorbers also feature an increased diameter Mitsubishi says contributes to improved control and a more comfortable ride with improve agility and decreased harshness.
Rear leaf springs continue to vary between grades with workhorse GLX and GLX+ grades retaining a heavy-duty four-leaf arrangement and multi-use GLX-R, GLS, and GSR grades continuing with a standard three-leaf setup.
On the connectivity front, we find the high-grade Triton GSR adopting the Mitsubishi Connect technology platform that allows owners to remotely connect with their vehicle.
With “improved convenience, safety, and security features”, the system comprises 4G coverage via the Telstra mobile network to enable SOS Emergency Assistance, a Call Mitsubishi Motors Assistance feature, My Mitsubishi Connect mobile application, and several remote access features via the owner’s smartphone. These features include remote start and climate control settings, light and horn operation, remote locking, vehicle finder, distance tracker, and more.
All MY26 Mitsubishi Triton model grades remain powered by a twin-turbocharged 2.4-litre four-cylinder diesel engine producing 150kW and 470Nm of torque. Six-speed manual and automatic transmissions remain available, while fuel consumption averages range from as low as 7.5 litres per 100km.
Across the line-up, and beginning with the entry-grade Triton GLX (from $37,090) we find equipment highlights that include 17-inch steel wheels, electric power steering, fabric upholstery, vinyl flooring, air-conditioning, a 7.0-inch meter cluster, Multi Around View Monitor (pick-up models only), a 9.0-inch infotainment display, integrated sat nav, and wireless Apple CarPlay and wired Android Auto.

The GLX+ (from $50,690) adds 17-inch alloy wheels, a rear differential lock, side steps, rear privacy glass, front fog lights, tailgate assist (pick-up), and digital radio reception.
For the GLX-R (from $57,440) we find 18-inch alloy wheels, Mitsubishi’s Super Select 4WD-II with Terrain Control and Hill Descent Control, a black sports bar, carpeted flooring, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
The penultimate Triton GLS (from $58,590) adds a bedliner (pick-up), electric folding external mirrors, LED frontal lighting, blackened exterior garnishing, soft-padded interior surfaces with silver accent stitching, additional cupholders in the dashboard, dual-zone climate control, a frameless electrochromatic rear-view mirror, keyless entry and ignition, and a wireless smartphone charger.
The $1500 Deluxe option pack – available only on the GLS grade – adds leather upholstery with silver contrast stitching, powered driver seat adjustment, and heated front seats to the deal.
Finally for the Triton GSR (from $62,590) we find roof rails, a sailplane (pick-up), wheel arch mouldings, leather upholstery with orange contrast stitching, GSR floor mats, soft padded interior surfaces with Dark Titanium accents, a powered driver’s seat, Connected Car Services (pick-up), and Yamaha Performance Damper (pick-up).
The paint palette carries over from the previous model year and includes Black Mica, Blade Silver, Graphite Grey, Impulse Blue, Red, White, White Diamond, and Yamabuki Orange.
Interior trims are also carried over with black the only colour available regardless of upholstery type and contrasting stitching.
A long list of accessories and accessory bundles are available as detailed on the Mitsubishi Motors Australia accessory page.
The Triton line-up remains backed by Mitsubishi’s extensive 10/10/10 Diamond Advantage warranty offering a 10-year/200,000km vehicle warranty, 10 years’ capped-price servicing, and 10 years’ roadside assistance.
“(The) Triton has long been a key link to our brand in Australia,” said Mitsubishi Motors Australia Limited general manager of product strategy Bruce Hampel.
“It represents impressive capability, strong value, and a dedication to reliability and aftersales support that is second to none.
“The latest range of model year updates further strengthen these values, with refined specifications including new suspension componentry that is applied across the range, making this Triton more refined than ever, while still retaining impressive strength and durability.
“(The) GSR also evolved with the key addition of Mitsubishi Connect, for the first time on Triton, while the introduction of the Yamaha Performance Damper adds even further refinement with a new level of chassis control.”
