Impressions on the 2024 Triton Athlete

I finally got hold of the 2024 Triton Athlete and this is my impressions on the truck

[@jinnkuntv6454]

Test drove this truck last friday, and napakaganda!

[@llyanjimenez4985]

Solid talaga mag review! the best!

[@RL86]

Very good review ! Keep it up!

[@NoliAquinoDelaCruz]

Itong channel nto ang magaling mag review walang halong bias

[@ghostofthemist6786]

Saw it in person. A relative of mine has one. But for me, the rear is lacking design. Like you said. Pero it could compete with the Raptor and ranger. The suspension was great no questions. For the top of the model pricing at 1.9M It's a pretty good deal for me.

[@vantom6194]

For the me selling point of triton is its unique 4x4 system. There are only two brands that i trust in 4x4 and AWD technology with RALLY and DAKAR championship to back their claim SUBARU and MITSUBISHI

[@rexhinlo3398]

I like how the alternator on the Triton is positioned high up in the engine. However, there is another pulley on the alternator that drives something. That, I don't like. When your alternator clutch fails, the other part that the alternator pulley drives will most likely fail. You will have two systems that are bound to fail from a tandem pulley. That I experienced on farm tractors with tandem pumps compared to separate pumps (power steering and hydraulic pumps).

[@0.1u29]

nakakatuwa yung unbiased review ni Sir Levi sa engine ng Triton kahit naka Raptor sya.

[@techietoma]

Iba kasi effect ng Ford sa iba, kahit alam mong lamang yung iba sa engine pero mas pogi at mas comfy ang Ranger.

[@randolfabad759]

The new triton should just give it all, hindi yung nandun na yung features binitin pa FYI lang this is the next gen Triton I wish sa next year model ay naka disc brakes na, may adaptive cruise control with stop and go, yung lock sa back passenger (like 2024 na yung lock maka 1990's pa) electronic seat adjust sa passenger seat, and many more.

[@johnp2909]

May Adas system na din ba Ang triton?

[@ajocorona]

Drum Brake assembly is never an issue sa totoo lang. In terms of functionality, regardless if it is a drum or disc, it will serve its purpose and that is slowing the car. Lamang lang talaga sa heat dissipation ang disc brakes and its easier to maintain. Apart from that, wala naman issue with drum brakes. In fact, mas long lasting and mas reliable pa nga ang drum brake system. Since most of the braking happens in the front, 70-30 split, most likely you won't feel the difference.

[@llyanjimenez4985]

Bro, it’s already year 2024 disc brakes should be mandatory already, his right it’s just cost cutting really, breaking performance of disc brakes is different especially in dissipating heat. Plus drum brakes tend to squeak if not properly maintained. That idea of “easier to maintain” is just an excuse to say that it’s fine to cost cut

[@ajocorona]

@llyanjimenez4985 why should it be mandatory? Can you enlighten me further? My Montero has a disc brake on all 4 wheels and it is more costly to maintain as compared to my Sister's Innova na naka Drums ang rear. You may even need to change 3 sets of brake pads before you can even replace a set of brake shoes. I honestly don't mind hearing a squeaking sound coming from my brakes, it only tells me that my brakes are working fine. It is normal for 2 contacting materials that rub at each other to make a sound, aside from that, drum brake assemblies have multiple metal springs inside which may also create that squeaking sound, again, normal for its operation.

[@llyanjimenez4985]

@@ajocorona you don’t get it if you’re paying for almost 2m peso for a car it should have already disc brakes. I already said it’s 2024 already we have to move on sa old technology. If your only defense is maintenance.. come on if you can afford 2m peso for a car you might as well have money on maintainance.

[@ajocorona]

@llyanjimenez4985 there are plenty of other things to consider aside from not having disc brakes on the rear. Again, from my point of view, I don't see it as a deal breaker. You're paying for an All-New vehicle, it's even priced at almost a 100k difference from the outgoing model. Yet you're having an all-new design, body, frame, techs, engine, drivetrain etc., you'll even get a Lancer Evolution DNA on it with Mitsubishi's well-known AYC (Active Yaw Control) and their Super-Select 4WD system, which many offroad enthusiasts find very capable compared to other 4x4 system.

[@llyanjimenez4985]

@@ajocorona i’m not saying it’s a under spec truck either, actually it’s better than it’s rivals you get a lot for the price, almost perfect actually then you see drums at the rear which is saddening to see for a “new gen triton” it’s okay if it’s just a facelift but seeing drums for a new gen? Idk..

[@bladeofmiquella1887]

My favorite car reviewer, Sir Levi! I'm in the market for a pick up truck, kaya suki ako ng mga videos related to it. Pero aantayin ko muna Isuzu Dmax / VCross 2024 bago ako mag decide.

BTW, good talaga sir pag kayo mag review hindi yong face nyo ang laging nakikita dapat sa auto lang, di tulad sa iba dyan face nila lagi nkikita instead na yong ni review na auto..Lol! 😁

[@MochizukiYuusei]

This really is a big bang for your buck! Although its still got drawbacks like Drum Brakes and a lack of Tailgate assist, everything else really makes it a very promising truck that can very well be worth its price! Although it seems to not be able to defeat the Ranger Raptor, I believe that the Triton Athlete doesn't reallt compete with the Raptor and is closer to the WildTrak instead. There is the possibility of Mitsubishi making something like a RalliArt edition of the Triton that could compete with the Raptor if that ever happens. Cant wait to see how well the Triton will compete in the Market!

[@offroadnomad925]

Bang for your buck? LOOOL😂! For almost 2M, you get drum brake, no tailgate assist, no paddle shift, analog instrument cluster, very small infotainment system...

[@offroadnomad925]

@@jeushjensen8194 It's about their pricing dude. Overpriced for the specs they give you.

[@biggusoofus9682]

Drum brakes actually do better for utilitarian purposes. PPVs with rear disc brakes are just for show; form over function if you will.

[@danmarcelino8198]

True Ralliart edition not just some decals added.

[@andrecarreon9940]

Sana dmax at navarra naman next

[@rexhinlo3398]

My experience with vehicles with rear disc brakes is that they are prone to being stuck. Dirt, especially mud and sand accumulate on the rear tires more than the front tires. For heavy duty applications, rear drum brakes is still king. It's not cost cutting. Mitsubishi is just being practical. The brake system of the drum brake is protected by the drum itself from the elements. Personally experienced that on the Chevy and GMC trucks we drove as work vehicles in heavy duty/severe applications. The Mitsubishi Strada has a more superior braking system than the Hilux.

Maganda din naman po ang conquest lalo na pag upgraded parts

[@thegrimreaper6926]

​@@ridewithlevi6418ung hindi maganda sa Hilux ay Yung outdated na mag 8 years na ganun pa rin Yung interior. I have no problems with the stiff suspension because of leaf springs because that's what a pick-up truck is supposed to be but it is subjective to anyone who wants comfort or using it for it's purpose.

[@cnber31]

Thank you! I’ve been waiting for this review of yours about the Triton Athlete 2024. Planning to buy one, but still torn between the Ford Wiltrak, and Hilux GRS but considering the additional Peso for GRS. What can you suggest? Thanks!

[@ridewithlevi6418]

The hilux gr-s is a good and solid truck no doubt! But as of now i do think that the wildtrak is a better value for money because you get a lot more features for a lower price. Also if one of your considerations is comfort of the passengers the wildtrak will serve you better, nvh levels is superior. Mind you the gr-s ride and comfort improved a lot but the wildtrak is just a better package on that aspect because comfort in general is not just about the ride quality, it also considers small details such as light steering, noise suppression both outside noise and engine noise as well as how balanced the ride is and you can all feel that in the wildtrak. Also the platform of the hilux now has been out in the market for 8yrs already if not mistaken, so even if there were improvements with the tech/safety department it does still shows its age. If you really want a hilux tho you can wait for the next gen maybe coming out nxt yr or the nxt 2yrs, that for sure will be a big improvement

[@maki1459]

If you're looking for advanced features and technology, go with Ford. If you want long-term reliability, you can never go wrong with Toyota. You can also watch Mechanics YT to see what they would choose ;)

[@bolagtok24]

This biturbo triton requires euro 5 diesel, can you please explain to us regarding about this sir levi? does that mean na you can't just fill this truck a regular diesel unlike the single turbo 4n16? Kasi papano yung mga bibili nitong totl athlete na nasa probinsya at malayo sa mga fuel station with euro 5 fuels? I believe the biturbo wildtrak and ranger raptor only requires euro 4 diesel correct me if i'm wrong sir.. thanks!

Sir hindi niyo nabanggit yun towing + payload capacity. Nangunguna ang New Triton sa may pinakamataas sa segment na ito. Onti lang lamang ng Triton sa Ranger, pero yun Hilux halos kalahati lang ng Triton ang capacity. www.carsales.com.au/editorial/details/new-mitsubishi-triton-topples-ford-ranger-as-towing-payload-king-143685/

[@johnfernandez2316]

nakita ko na. maganda nga sa personal. brusko ang dating. malapad na din.

[@ridewithlevi6418]

Yes malapad tingnan in person

[@rapide12345]

Also the Triton is the only one in its class that has a transmission cooler and it can drive 4WD on sealed surfaces which means it can be also 2WD (RWD), AWD, and 4WD with AYC.

[@ErnestMarvinEsteban]

The raptor has 4wd auto which can be used on dry pavement too. It’s not ON 100% of the time but basically the same thing. It’s the default mode. But I do agree that the triton has the more complicated transfer case.

[@biggusoofus9682]

Drum brakes actually do better for utilitarian purposes; better for hauling and heavy loads. Disc brakes are truly better, IF you take that vehicle on a race track and brake hard in every turn. Safe to say, I don't see any Triton owners taking this to a track. Let alone with any non-performance vehicle actually.

[@Anton99997]

If ilabas ng KIA yung Tasman nila dito at the right price, Im sure sila magiging #1 sa segment

[@ridewithlevi6418]

Triton no doubt

[@christoperdeypalubos2302]

Triton,Hilux,Dmax always naglalaban sa AXCR but since ralliart joins 2yrs ago, Triton always rank 1 as best truck to its segment, Technology I really like ang Ranger or Ranger Raptor but in ACXR always rank 20-30, but offcourse sa PH pag ford always yayaminin look ang nasa isip ng tao, But in the battlefield I'll always choose Triton vs Ranger Raptor kahit lahat ng specs and technology na gusto ko is nasa Ranger Raptor

[@Berto_Wiz]

Why did you choose and buy the Ford Ranger Raptor over the Mitsubishi Triton Athlete?? What features of the Raptor doesn’t have in the triton???

[@techietoma]

I am sure dahil sa porma and ride quality. If i were to choose, i will pick the Athlete, mas panatag loob ko sa Japanese cars compared sa Ford na questionable ang reliability. Yung uncle ng barkada ko is an Automotive Engineer, almost all brands ng cars nakapagtrabaho sya and he doesn't recommend buying a Ford.

[@ridewithlevi6418]

In terms of detailed features, the raptor has disc brakes sa rear, fox shocks and coils springs with watts link sa likod, paddle shifter, UVP, 220V/12V found in the truck bed, active lane keeping assist, auto park assist, trail control, 8 way power adjustable seat sa passenger side, adaptive headlights, full digital instrument cluster, Ford pass with remote start, puddle lamps, electronic parking brake with autohold, Pre-collision assist, evasive steer assist, post impact braking, ambient lighting, auxiliary switches, TPMS, bfg ko2 tires and most importantly the refinement of the engine, superb riding comfort and better nvh levels.
