Mitsubishi Triton’s 100,000th Customer, Muhammad Faerus received a 100,000 KM diesel worth up to RM27,000.
Last year, the robust Triton pick-up truck maintained a solid market share of 22% despite the pandemic and healthy competition from its rivals. The Triton pick-up truck sold 9,268 units in 2021, a 34% growth compared to the previous year.
To commemorate this significant achievement, the company gave away 100,000 KM diesel worth up to RM27,000 to its 100,000th customer, Encik Muhammad Faerus, a solar panel installation contractor in one of its authorized dealerships EON Auto Mart in Jalan Ampang.
“Since the Triton was introduced in Malaysia, it has proven to be one of the favourite pick-up trucks in Malaysia with its rugged look, versatility, and good handling. It is capable in the harshest of off-road conditions but also perfect as an everyday vehicle. Our Triton customers come from all walks of life- business owners, off-road enthusiasts, and lifestyle users. Over the years, with Triton’s improved technology and functionality, it has inspired owners to take on challenges and push the boundaries in creating an exciting life journey, while fulfilling their dreams and ambitions,” said Shinya Ikeda, CEO of Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia.
He added, “We would also like to extend our appreciation to the strong commitment of MMM’s authorized dealers and business partners, as well as gratitude to the Malaysian government and media friends that have spurred Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia to achieve this significant milestone.”
