Mitsubishi has confirmed pricing and specifications for the updated 2026 Triton, due in Australian showrooms in May. The range runs from $37,090 to $65,590 before on-road costs, with increases of $100 to $1,000 across the board compared to the outgoing model.
The headline change is a suspension overhaul applied across every variant. Softer front springs, rubber body mounts, and new high-response shock absorber valves front and rear are designed to improve ride comfort without compromising off-road ability. The rear shock absorbers also gain a larger diameter for added control.
The top-spec GSR pick-up gets two exclusive additions. Yamaha Performance Dampers, mounted horizontally across the chassis at the front and rear, improve body control, reduce vibration, and sharpen steering response. The GSR pick-up also gains Mitsubishi Connect, a connected-car system using a factory-fitted Telstra 4G modem. It supports remote commands via a smartphone app including climate control, door locking, and vehicle location, plus theft alerts and an SOS emergency call button. Mitsubishi Connect is included free for five years. Neither feature extends to the GSR cab-chassis or lower grades.
The GLS gets a visual refresh with a gloss-black grille surround, door handles and mirror caps replacing the previous silver finish. It also picks up two dash-mounted cup holders, previously a GSR exclusive.
Manual gearbox buyers have fewer choices in the 2026 range. The manual single-cab GLX 4x2 and 4x4 have been cut, leaving just the GLX 4x4 dual-cab chassis manual at $47,940. The range shrinks from 19 to 15 variants.
The 2.4-litre bi-turbo diesel producing 150kW and 470Nm carries over unchanged, paired with six-speed manual or automatic transmissions. Braked towing capacity remains 3,500kg across the range.

With rival 4x4 utes losing ground in 2025 while Triton 4x4 sales climbed over 20 per cent, the MY26 update gives Mitsubishi's second-best seller a sharper ride story to tell at the dealership.
