Mitsubishi built the L-200/Triton single cab as the family's workhorse. As a result, it could carry the biggest loads and, in addition, perform great off-road.
The second generation of the L200 (named Triton on specific markets) was unveiled in 2005. Like its predecessor, it came in three shapes: single-cab, crew-cab, and double-cab. The single-cab version was designed mainly as a workhorse, being fitted with the most extended bed in the lineup and offered the lowest starting price. But unlike its predecessor, the 2005 model year tried to gain more points for its design.
Mitsubishi offered the base version of the L200 single-cab with an unpainted plastic front bumper, steel wheels, and black door handles and mirrors. Unlike most other pickups on the market, the L200 featured a rounded cabin shape, with lines inspired by SUVs and crossovers.
Inside, there were just two bucket seats divided by a low center console. As an option, Mitsubishi offered a wider seat for the side passenger, so there was a narrow space for a third occupant. But for those who used this version of the L200 as a recreational vehicle, the carmaker offered more features such as power windows and locks, power mirrors, air conditioning, and an infotainment unit placed atop the center stack.
Under the hood, depending on the market, Mitsubishi installed a four-pot turbodiesel, either with a direct injection or indirect injection system. The five-speed manual was standard, and a four-speed automatic was available for selected markets. In addition, a two-speed transfer case was fitted for the 4x4 versions. Alas, a 2x4 base model was on the table as well, with just rear-wheel drive.
