Mitsubishi L200 Returns to Europe with 2.4L Twin Turbo

The Mitsubishi L200 returns to Europe for 2027 wearing a 2.4-liter twin-turbo inline-four diesel as its sole powertrain.

After a five-year absence from the continent, Mitsubishi has confirmed the mid-size pickup will go on sale in Germany as a 2027 model. The double-cab L200 is advertised from 39,990 euros for the Diamant grade with the manual gearbox, while the Diamant TOP automatic starts at 52,990 euros.

The 2.4-liter twin-turbo produces 150 kilowatts (204 ps or 201 hp) and 470 Newton-meters (347 lb-ft), giving the L200 a braked towing capacity of 3,500 kilograms (7,716 pounds).

Powertrain and driveline

Mitsubishi specifies a single engine for both trim levels: a 2.4-liter I4 diesel with twin turbochargers. The twin-turbo layout is presented as a way to smooth power delivery and provide additional reserves under heavy load. The engine pairs with two different four-wheel-drive systems tied to trim choice. Diamant models use an Easy Select 4WD system coupled with the manual transmission and a rear differential lock, while Diamant TOP models receive Super Select 4WD-II in a permanent configuration with seven driving modes and a torque-converter automatic.

Fuel capacity is 75 liters (19.8 gallons). Mitsubishi lists overall length at 5,320 millimeters (209.4 inches), ground clearance at 228 millimeters (9.0 inches) and a dual-cab bed length of 1,555 millimeters (61.2 inches). The double cab is the only body style offered in Germany; the unbraked towing capacity is 750 kilograms (1,653 pounds).

Equipment, packaging and warranty

Standard equipment on the entry-level Diamant includes hill start assist, remote central locking, air conditioning, heated and folding power mirrors, trailer stability assist, a full-size spare wheel and a lockable tailgate. The Diamant TOP adds an 8.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, LED headlights and running lights, 360-degree cameras with moving object detection, rear cross-traffic alert, blind-spot warning with lane-change assist, front and rear parking sensors, black leatherette seats, 18-inch alloy wheels, running boards, a tailgate damper and rear privacy glass.

Island White is standard across both trims; Basalt Grey and Piano Black are optional at 890 euros each. Mitsubishi markets the L200 under the Diamant trim nomenclature used across its German lineup and offers an eight-year warranty structure built around a five-year manufacturer warranty for essential components, extendable in one-year increments, with roadside assistance on the same schedule.

Mitsubishi positions the relaunched L200 as significantly more affordable than rivals such as the Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger. The truck shares its body-on-frame underpinnings with the all-new Pajero mid-size SUV, which is produced in Thailand; Mitsubishi has not confirmed whether the Pajero will be offered in Europe.
