The video was taken on Thang Long Avenue, Hanoi, featuring a silver Mitsubishi Triton 2024 with temporary license plates and no camouflage. This indicates that the release of the car in Vietnam is not far off.

Currently, there is no information about the Mitsubishi Triton 2024 in Vietnam. Dealerships have also not started accepting bookings for this pickup truck model. However, from the video, it can be seen that the design of the car is no different from the Mitsubishi Triton 2024 in other Southeast Asian markets such as Thailand and the Philippines.
