Vehicle Running Costs

Mitsubishi models dominate cost of ownership study

Mitsubishi Motors’ legendary Triton utes and the rugged Pajero Sport continue to be the most affordable cars to own and operate in their class, according to independent comprehensive studies carried out by various state automotive associations.

The thorough annual study looks at the running costs of more than 125 vehicles in all categories during the first five years of ownership, encompassing the on-road purchase price, registration costs, fuel, insurance, depreciation, servicing and other ownership expenses.

For the past three years, the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport GLX and the legendary Mitsubishi Triton 4x4 GLX Double Cab Pick Up have topped the All Terrain SUV and 4WD Ute categories respectively.

A front runner for two consecutive years in the 2WD Ute category, is the perfect workmate, the Mitsubishi Triton 4x2 GLX Double Cab Pick Up.
