Mitsubishi Motors has just confirmed that a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) powertrain is coming to the all-new 2024 Mitsubishi Triton, but will not use its diesel engine. Instead, the Japanese automaker said it would use a gasoline motor, as a diesel version would be too costly to manufacture. This was confirmed by a senior Mitsubishi Motors engineer to the media outlet Carsales Australia. “Mitsubishi Motors are researching and developing such a [PHEV] system, but at this moment, launchi

Moreover, when spot-checked from a certain angle, both these two aforementioned Hiluxs rather appear like two peas in a po

There are certain characteristics that we look for in a vehicle as we want the best or the one that fits our needs and wants. The industry's fast-moving category these past few years are SUVs and crossovers classes, but apart from that, pickup trucks are in-demand, too.

I have asked myself before, “Is Mazda a luxury car?” as the brand was already registered as a pretty model in my head.
