Limited-edition Triton Savana arrives in Brazil
Mitsubishi's Brazilian arm has unveiled a bespoke, hard-use version of the Triton (sold as the L200 in other markets): the Triton Savana. Built for serious off-roaders and adventure seekers, this special-edition pickup is strictly limited to just 80 units and raises the Triton's wading capability to a class-leading 800 mm (31.5 in), up from the 500 mm (19.7 in) found on lower trims.
Price and market positioning
The Triton Savana carries a premium price tag: it starts at 349,990 BRL (roughly $65,400). For context, the entry-level Triton currently listed in Brazil begins at 265,990 BRL (around $49,700). With the Savana Mitsubishi targets buyers who need genuine off-road functionality, unique styling, and exclusivity—think expedition enthusiasts, ranch owners, or professionals operating in remote terrain.
What sets the Savana apart?
Derived from the Katana trim, the Savana adds a raft of rugged hardware and visual cues. Key exterior upgrades include a passenger-side snorkel for improved air intake, a black anti-scratch roof rack, extensive body cladding, and 18-inch black alloys. Two bold colors are offered: Rally Yellow and Forest Green, both contrasted by graphite-gray accents across the grille, bumpers, door moldings and flares.
Highlights:
- 800 mm wading depth
- Snorkel and steel rock sliders
- Anti-scratch roof rack (50 kg dynamic load)
- Recovery board and shovel included
- 265/60 R18 Goodyear tires and underbody protection
Steel rock sliders, underbody protection and a roof rack rated for a 50 kg dynamic load (with a significantly higher static capacity) make the Savana ready for real off-road duty. Mitsubishi also supplies basic recovery tools—an appreciated touch for owners who will push this truck into tough situations.
Capability: towing, payload and drivetrain
Only offered as a dual-cab, the Savana can tow up to 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) and carries a maximum payload of 1,000 kg (2,205 lb). The sole transmission is a torque-converter automatic paired with Mitsubishi’s SS4-II four-wheel-drive system, which provides selectable modes including 2H, 4H, 4HLc and 4LLc (Lc = locked center differential). A driver-operated rear differential lock, active yaw control and four terrain modes improve traction and driver confidence off pavement.
Engine, fuel economy and emissions
Under the bonnet sits a 2.4-liter bi-turbo diesel inline-four (code 4N16) with an aluminum die-cast block, producing 205 PS (about 202 bhp) and 470 Nm (347 lb-ft) of torque. Mitsubishi quotes fuel consumption of 10.8 L/100 km (21.9 mpg) in the city and 9.7 L/100 km (24.3 mpg) on the highway. The Savana is equipped with selective catalytic reduction and a 17-liter AdBlue tank to meet modern diesel emissions standards.
Comfort and tech
Despite its rugged focus, the interior is well appointed: a 9.0-inch touchscreen with full smartphone integration, wireless charging pad, 7.0-inch digital driver display, push-button start and dual-zone climate control are standard. Safety and convenience features include a 360-degree camera and Active Lane Departure Warning. The cabin combines practical vulcanized rubber flooring with leather-trimmed seating—a deliberate contrast that emphasizes usability without sacrificing comfort.
"This is a Triton engineered for real-world overland work," said a Mitsubishi spokesperson, highlighting the limited-production truck’s practical kit and capability.
Whether buyers want a capable workhorse for remote tasks or an exclusive, adventure-ready pickup, the Triton Savana packages serious off-road kit into a compact, limited-run offering—but with only 80 units available, it won't stay on dealer lots for long.
