    The two-stage turbo variant of the 4n16 engine is bad for the local market, since being euro v means having a dpf which is prone to clogging issues. Several owners of the new triton athlete 4x4 have reported about it.

    Baka kailangan din ng Euro5 diesel fuel galing sa Unioil?

    Oo pero hindi lang un. Need din i-drive sa mga open highway pag kaya. Kasi pag sa traffic ng city o looban lang dun madalas nag-coclog ang system. Buti nga yung 4x4 lang ang euro 5 kundi affected na lahat ng variants.

    Sad to say I am not a fan of the "pinalaking" Destinator design. Mitsu could have done better.

    I'm not a fan of any of the current Mitsubishi design language, at all.

    Early Euro 5 and up adopters will have to contend with the downsides of having a DPF. But on the bright side, this might eventually open up services that offer off-vehicle DPF cleaning.... much like EGR/intake cleaning services that boomed when Euro 2-4 Diesel engines got to a certain age.

    IIRC early models of the 2nd-gen Montero Sport had DPF. I got a chance to drive a loaner from Mitsubishi and it went into a regen cycle while we were driving along SLEX. Did they remove the DPF afterwards because it wasn't actually required yet?
    Everest 2nd-gen also has DPF. My mom was complaining that it was revving and belching white smoke daw on warm startup/idle but it was obviously a regen cycle.

    It’s become a running joke that the exhaust from a Euro 6 diesel engine can actually be cleaner, at least in terms of particulate matter, than the air in many congested cities. To a certain extent, you'll be cleaning the air of particulates just by driving it around town. lol.. The irony.

    I hope it's a legit good off-roader.
    Will wait for the Aussie reviews.

    Kung Triton based, parang na drop lang ang "sport" name, at ginawang Pajero.

    Dahil sa dynamic shield, walang connection looks wise sa previous Pajero generations.

    kidding aside, the next exciting part will be the Global Debut. I hope it will be this 3rd Quarter in Japan or Thailand or Australia.
