    I'm looking to buy a 4x4 Ute, considering both of these. The Isuzu offers a Cab Chassis with good value, not available with Triton atm, I will wait for that to come to Australia. I have a Pajero Sport and love it, been no issues in 7 years and its a champ offroad, although a bit bumpy on corrugations. A friend bought a M-UX at the same time, his is a rattle box, so noisy from day one and sounds awful now especially when cold, my Mits is nice and quite which he commented on the first time he drove mine. It would have been nice to have a noise comparison on the Utes.

Just as you said with humming on highways you forget if its diesel. The interior is friendly as well. Driving dynamics improved. However, once you cross 60,000 all turbo vehicles start issues. With bi turbos one needs to use the correct engine oil if not serviced at dealer outlets. Adlad is must for carbon emissions but in Tanzania I see people never adding that , maybe lesser knowledge, I am sure it's affecting the engine and performance.

    Most have been saying the Triton is a livelier sportier feeling car, 2.4 L twin turbo means the engine is working hard, Isuzu/BT50 3L single turbo not as lively but under stressed and likely to live longer without dramas.

    • @AndrewHacking
      @AndrewHacking 12 днів тому

      In the review the Triton it was generating a lot more torque at lower RPM so in effect it is not working as hard as the D-MAX which needs higher revs to produce a similar torque output. It might be producing slightly more heat and therefore would need components that are rated for those temps. The twin turbo means the lag is significantly reduced with torque relatively high at low revs just above idle. The turbos are usually staged so the smaller turbo spins up faster at the lower revs whilst the second turbo provides boost at the mid to higher range. Either way boost would be relatively mild and given Mitsubishi is offering up to a 10 year warranty it's a safe bet. It's also far from a new concept.
      That said, the D-MAX engine has a larger volume and whisky robust it is a primitive engine that can never be smooth due to its design (hence the rattle and shake it makes) but it does have massive headroom for tuning.
      There are relatively affordable after market tuning options for the D-MAX which can very safely increase efficiency and power of the D-MAX to 180-200KW on the stock turbo and intercooler but at the risk of potential warranty issues. Given that Isuzu as a company have been reluctant and increasingly hostile in respect of recognising faults and warranty claims this comes with a risk to the consumer whilst also being one of the best upgrades for a D-MAX. For such a simple remap and dyno tune it well and truly trounces the comparative performance of the Triton even if it may not be as dynamic at the lower revs due to only having a single turbo.
      The inherent ceiling on the Isuzu engine is also far greater than the Triton if you consider what they are achieving in drag races inThailand, the engine block (but not everything else) on that Isuzu engine can go all the way up to an insane 1000 HP (745KW) providing the engine and drivetrain is rebuilt to drag racing specs.

    We won’t be towing.

      The new MV triton will be a worthwhile upgrade, especially considering you travel. I'm currently averaging around 860km to a tank, with typical stop start peakhour traffic of a morning and afternoon in Brisbane 5 days a week. Without all of that, I would easily achieve over 900km to a tank. The new Paj sport is another 18+ months away at least, as Mitsubishi have only just announced the latest update for it. If you don't need the extra seats found in the Paj Sport, take a look at the Triton. But I imagine the new sport wont differ too much from the Triton

      well the Outlander you have is at best On-Demand AWD, you could put on "All Terrain tyres" like Pirelli Scorpion ATR or Toyo Open Country ATR which will get you further along but without ability to lock in even 4x4 High (re: lock the transfer case) that can only take you so far, it will take you further but ground clearance and lack of low range will hurt in some regions.
      Since you probably want a new wagon style body then your options comes down to:
      - Pajero Sport (Mitshibishi) Super Select II (old) 2.4L single turbo diesel / 8-wpeed torque converter, 4x4 High/Low
      - Rexton (Ssangyong) 2.2L turbo diesel with I think 8-speed only has 4x4 High/Low , price
      - Fortuna (Toyota) Very good but also very lame Toyota, RWD with 4x4 High/Low tough as Hilux better ride
      - Everest (Ford) the best in class but PRICE is the worst here, also a finiky 10-speed auto that can let go but everything else is near spot on including RAW/AWD/4x4 High/Low Rear diff lock and V6 turbo diesel (again PRICE).

  • @351tgv
    @351tgv 4 місяці тому +5

    as per my previous replies in the other video about this:
    - Ad Blue can be a pain in the rear end if you do extended highway towing, I had an Everest (3.2L 5cyl 6-speed auto AWD/4x4) and when ever I did extended highway speeds towing the SCR system would consume Urea very quakily and yes it did catch me out once as the warning message comes on with less than 3L and I was still some 200km from nearest town and then that local servo did not have ad blue and I knew from other experience do not switch the engine off as you cant restart without ad blue but he engine will run with out it until you refill.
    I want to correct Brett here, the Triton does not have a "twin turbo" set up, its actually a sequential turbo set up (similar to Ford 2L bi-turbo) in the set up has a smaller faster spinning turbo and a larger slower spinning turbo, re: both are not same size.
    The reason why Mitshibishi have done it that way is to reduce turbo lag and anyone who did drive the 2.5L / 2.4L single turbo remember what horrid TURBO lag those engines had in previous Tritons (boost would come on at 2,500rpm, like an old turbo petrol turbo), also there is no need for the 8-speed auto, the gearing is tall and the final drive is short so the engine which now has a very good torque curve (re: flat slab of torque) can stay in a taller gear and still provide the same level of power (remember torque x revs / 9549 = kw at flywheel) without the need to drop to lower gears as thus burn more fuel for no reason.
    As for suspensions and steering? both now have electric steering (eewww, prefer hydraulic steering bat that is a personal choice) and from what I can tell the Triton has better steering of the two, suspension wise both are double wish bone front and leaf spring at the rear, depending on spec, in the upper spec I would agree with Bret that the D-Max has the edge but is that really a thing in utes?
    Interior space is easily a win for Triton as is design and function (its the newer of the two), that said do you trust that Mitshibishi basically have a Nissan design with Renault electrics over proven GM/Isuzu gear?
    The trump card? the Triton has Super Select II, which allows for full time AWD, big major plus (even if it uses more fuel) but D-max has slightly better mechanical off road credentials even if Traction control is meh at best.
    Best advice?
    Go to dealerships and get them to give you a 24 test drive of each and then figure out which one you think will be the better of the two and then hammer hard on price when you negotiate to purchase, if the dealership plays hard you play harder and find a dealer that wants your business, tip: regional dealerships want your business more than metro ones.
    finally? Good luck.

    Going back many years I remember Jaguar using as a sales pitch that it now had a sealed electronic odometer. This was to combat the standard second hand car practice of winding back the clock. Which was simple to do. Within no time you could buy, in certain circles, an electronic gizmo that plugged in and allowed you to set the odometer to anything you wanted. Making it even easier to clock the car. There will soon be available something similar to disable all this non safety shit. So many people turn it off every time they drive. But it defaults back on. There needs to be a permanent override program to shut these systems down. For your own sanity and safety. The Ancap rating set up needs doing away with. Just re hashed information with a distorted twist anyway. Totally meaningless rating. Could I be bothered to add synthetic piss to my diesel. Not really. Do I want it sniffing it's own exhaust.

    drove a new isuzu ute at work transmission seemed to be sluggish in changes, engine is gutless, and need a kidney belt for the suspension. Also driver assist is a pain. So far what ive seen of the new triton they have managed to stuff up the 4wd sytem, pass for both.

      @@wagganationMFFM The same review that couldn't switch to 4H properly due to user error? For those familiar with the super select II system, the way Paul was trying to put it in 4H/4HLC was wrong firstly. I can basically replicate his "issue" with mine, but if I do it as you're suppose to, zero issues. Tested on the Mrs 2016 Paj sport also, same results. Secondly, those tyres that are outfitted from factory are arse, hardly an AT as they are claimed to be, a HT at best, and I can attest to them being atrocious in the wet on road, actually quite dangerous (soon to be replaced) - so with that in mind, wet and muddy (crap) tyres on the circuit, interestingly other ute reviews drier. You say the Tank made it on stock tyres - take a closer look at the tyre compared to that on the Triton, absolutely coated in mud. And as Paul mentioned in the review, freshly dug out circuit (makes a difference if you think about the reasons why) At the end of the day, I'm not here to convince you to get one, just want people to be a bit more open minded. My first preference is a Ranger (have owned two), I'm no Triton die hard fan, but these things are solid and more capable than they have been given credit for. I can only give my first hand experience and at the end of the day, you do sound convinced that it's not worth the buy and hey, that's fine! Every review should be taken with a grain of salt and understand they are subjective, but that carexpert review did an absolute disservice to the new Triton!

      it wont do that any more, even in 4x4 Low with diff lock the Traction control system is retained on the front wheels while the rears are done by the diff lock.
      that said the driver can still fully disengage traction control if they chose to.

    • @landrover1155
      @landrover1155 4 місяці тому

      Traction control is not anti slew/stability control. Off road say on the beach stability control is a burden (engine retardation and braking) - low range turns it off or you can turn it off with a button if in high range. Traction control cannot be turned off nor should it as it always helps even towing heavy loads in soft sand from stationary.
