Mitsubishi’s provisional May sales figures show 43% year-on-year growth led by a record-breaking month for its Triton ute, the company says.
There were 501 Triton registrations in May, up on 246 for the same time last year.
Overall, Mitsubishi registered 1029 units for May – up 42.9% or 309 units compared with May 2016.
Mitsubishi says it was fourth among all brands for the month and remains fifth year to date.
General manager of vehicle sales and marketing Daniel Cook says a buoyant market and the current 4WD Triton GLX-R promotion as key drivers behind the result.
“There is confidence in the economy and trust in our brand – this, paired with a very compelling offer on our limited edition Triton GLX-R, has undoubtedly contributed to our success,” said Mr Cook.
The 4WD Triton GLX-R is currently priced at $32,990 plus GST and on-road costs.
