The 2016 Mitsubishi Challenger is a vehicle that hasn't even been officially unveiled yet, and isn't expected to go on sale until 2016, but is already attracting a lot of hype. This SUV follows the recipe that has made generations of its predecessors so successful. The chassis and parts of the body structure are borrowed from the L200/Triton trick, while a rear end reminiscent of an estate is used to form this solid seven-seater.
However, it's not all a copy-paste job however. The new Mitsubishi Challenger boasts a unique bonnet, grille and front wings featuring the latest version of the Mitsubishi face. Indeed this vehicle's face is more or less identical to that of the 2013 Mitsubishi GR-HEV concept truck.
The Challenger is a vehicle that lives by the adage of 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' but still packs enough updates to make it exciting for buyers.
