- Mitsubishi Triton Savana debuts in Brazil as a rugged limited-run off-roader.
- Adds snorkel, roof rack, rock sliders, and graphite gray cladding protection.
- Wading depth rises to 800 mm, far beyond the standard Triton’s capability.
While the latest Toyota Hilux and Nissan Navara may have captured much of the attention in the midsize pickup scene these days, there’s another contender making a quiet entrance in South America. Mitsubishi has just launched the Triton Savana in Brazil, a special edition that leans into off-road toughness.

The current-generation Triton made its global debut in 2023, arriving in South America the following year. Now, just twelve months later, Mitsubishi is expanding the lineup with the Savana edition. The move mirrors what it did with the previous generation, which also received a similarly outfitted variant in 2023.
What’s Different This Time?
The new Triton Savana starts with the range-topping Katana trim and builds from there, adding a curated set of visual and functional accessories. Two exclusive paint colors, named Rally Yellow and Forest Green, set the tone, accented by discreet decals and graphite gray matte finishes on the grille and body cladding.
Mitsubishi says that cladding isn’t just for show, as it serves a practical role by shielding vulnerable components from stone chips and minor trail damage.
Standard equipment includes rock sliders that double as side steps, a roof rack, and a functional snorkel. The snorkel notably increases wading depth from the standard 500 mm (19.7 inches) to 800 mm (31.5 inches), which should give owners more breathing room during river crossings.
The Savana rides on 18-inch black alloy wheels, paired with rugged-terrain tires. Suspension settings remain unchanged from the Katana trim. It’s worth pointing out that the previous Savana ran on black steel wheels wrapped in aggressive rubber, suggesting a slightly different visual and functional approach in this latest version.

Power still comes from the same 2.4-liter bi-turbo diesel engine, delivering 202 hp (151 kW / 205 PS) and 470 Nm (346.6 lb-ft) of torque. That output is managed by an eight-speed automatic transmission and Mitsubishi’s Super Select II 4WD system, which includes seven selectable drive modes.
The cabin is largely carried over from the full-spec Triton Katana with leather upholstery and red stitching. Equipment includes a 9-inch infotainment, a 7-inch display between the instrument dials, a wireless charger, dual-zone A/C, seven airbags, a 360-degree camera system, and plenty of ADAS.
Only 80 units of the Savana will be available in Brazil, with pricing starting at R$349,990 (US$65,100). That positions it about R$11,000 (roughly US$2,000) above the Katana trim it’s based on, reflecting the added equipment.
