Toughness & reliability
L200 / TRITON
Durability in severe environments is greatly improved through
a tougher body.
Evolved tough body structure
L200/Triton is used in severe environments throughout the world. To further improve its reliability, overall durability is
greatly improved. The tough body withstands hard use even in mines.
Hard undercover
The undercover is made
thicker while satisfying
minimum ground clearance.
It guards the undercarriage
when driving in rough terrain.
Improved coupling rigidity around the engine room
The frame around the engine
housing is now coupled within
a closed cross-section of
enhanced body rigidity.

Previous model
Tough cargo bed
Reinforcing materials in the
side gate posts contribute to
high rigidity, low vibration and
a strong cargo bed.
Dispersion of input from the road
A structure is incorporated to
mitigate shocks by effectively
dispersing vibrations from the
body mounts
Application of high-tensile materials
Strengthened steel material
(high-tensile steel) is effectively
applied to the body structure.
The strengthened structure
is further streamlined to
reduce the weight to about 14
kg below that of the current
vehicle .
Increased use of anti-rust steel plates
Anti-rust steel plates are
applied to the hood, doors,
cargo bed and various other
parts. To improve anti-rust
performance, a sealer and
undercoating are applied to
the floor, doors, cargo bed
plate joints and inside the
wheel arches.
Double hood striker
The radius of the main striker
is increased to improve
durability. In addition, a
double structure formed
by installing a sub striker
improves safety by preventing
the hood from accidentally
opening or closing.
Coupled cargo bed and chassis frame
Rigidity is improved by adding
cross member to couple
cross sills under cargo bed
and chassis frame.
