Mitsubishi went to town with this fifth generation L200 pick-up, completely redesigning the engine, the suspension, the steering and the transmission - and that was just the start. Compared to the previous Series 4 model, it was more aerodynamic, better equipped, nicer to sit in and much more efficient. Plus it remained great off road and, if you tow, this vehicle will lug more about than any other rival from this era can. You can see why buyers like it.
History
Globally, Mitsubishi has six decades of pick-up production experience and by the time of the launch of this Series 5 L200 model, had sold well over four million of them, mostly L200s, a model range first launched way back in 1982. It was the 'Series 3' third generation version we first saw in 1996 though, that really hit the big time for this Japanese brand, a model since credited with the rejuvenation of this entire market segment. It was the first to recognise that the pick-up needn't be merely a utilitarian workhorse fit only for farmers and jobbing builders. The MK3 model L200 could be dressed up to look and feel more like a lifestyle SUV - and a very cost-effective one at that. Tax loopholes just after the turn of the century not only allowed businesses to reclaim VAT on the purchase price but also enabled company car users to pay a flat tax rate that gave them big savings and Mitsubishi found itself with the one vehicle in the sector that could take full advantage. Customers flocked to the company's showrooms and at one point, the brand was taking 70% of sales in this class.
After that though, things changed a little. The tax laws tightened - and the competition upped its game - but fortunately for Mitsubishi, pick-up buyers tend to like to stick to what they know, with the result that the Series 4 L200 model, launched in 2006 and updated in 2010, still led sales in the segment by a healthy margin for most of its lifetime. By 2015 though, another step forward was needed, hence the effort that was put into making sure that this Series 5 model would provide it, with significant improvements in over 330 areas. It was, we were told at launch, once again number one for a reason. This fifth generation L200 sold until mid-2019, when it was replaced by the Series 6 model.
