The true dark horse
In a world ruled by Hiluxes, Amaroks and Rangers, one bakkie doesn’t get as much attention as it deserves. Yes, the new Triton might have the public on polar opposites, yet it provides a worthy value-for-money package.

Met ‘n geskiedesnis van goeie en duursame bakkies het Mitsubishi in April 2019 hulle Triton bakkie ‘n nuwe voorkoms gegee en daarby sommer ook ‘n hele paar verbeterings aangebring.
Just like the growth of the ‘Sports Utility Vehicle’ market in South Africa and Namibia, the bakkie class has also grown more popular. Well, it has always been popular, but today we are seeing more and more manufacturers trying to compete in this market. The word “bakkie” is synonymous with the three factors of reliability, towing capacity and well, the amount it will be able to carry.
Iewers tussen my lêers is daar ‘n foto van twee Japannese wat met ‘n Mitsubishi Jeep in die vroeë Sestigs van Japan af na Engeland gery het om ‘n Formule Een Grand Prix vir Japan te propageer.
Met die bekendstelling van die enkelkajuit Triton-bakkie verlede jaar het Mitsubishi Motors ‘n aggressiewe bemarkingstrategie van stapel gestuur in ‘n poging om weer sy regmatige plek in hierdie uiters mededingende mark in te neem.
One of the most striking things about the motor industry is its diversity; not just in terms of products but the preferences of various regions. Every continent, nation, country, often even province is different from the next and what sells next door may not even feature on the newest local brochure.
Die voortreflikheid, voorkoms, betroubaarheid en sommer alles wat mens van ‘n bakkie verwag is alles faktore wat daartoe bygedra het dat Isuzu se KB-reeks deur die jare ‘n reputasie opgebou het wat moeilik oortref sal word.
