The Mitsubishi L200 is a rugged off-road pickup truck that has been manufactured by Mitsubishi since 2005. Renowned for its durability and versatility, it stands out as one of the top choices in its segment. A key factor contributing to its popularity is the ability to deduct the full VAT when purchased as a company vehicle, making it an attractive option for business owners.
The L200 is available in three cabin configurations: Single Cab, Club Cab, and Double Cab, catering to a variety of needs from utility to passenger transport. In early 2010, the model received a significant facelift, featuring a redesigned front end with updated headlight covers, grille, and bumper. The interior also saw enhancements, including a new steering wheel, updated dials, and revised center console controls.
The L200 offers an extensive list of optional features, including automatic air conditioning, leather upholstery, power windows and mirrors, cruise control, traction control, a premium multi-channel audio system, and a multimedia station with a hard drive and navigation system.
Power is delivered through a five-speed automatic transmission with manual mode. Under the hood, the L200 is equipped with a 2.5-liter diesel engine, available in two power outputs: 136 hp and a high-performance 178 hp variant. The top speed approaches 190 km/h, while fuel consumption remains efficient, averaging around 8 liters per 100 kilometers under moderate driving conditions.
The suspension is tuned for comfort, resulting in noticeable body roll during high-speed cornering. However, the L200 is equipped with factory-fitted ESP and a robust four-wheel-drive system with a differential sourced from the Mitsubishi Pajero. This system allows for four-wheel drive engagement even on high-traction surfaces without risk of damage.
Depending on the version, the Mitsubishi L200 comes with factory-installed tires in sizes 205/80 R15 or 265/70 R16. An optional tire size of 245/65 R17 is also available.
