“We are also proud of how closely the MMC and MMAL teams have worked on this project from the outset. To now see the results of that collaboration – from steering and suspension tuning to ensuring five-star ANCAP safety – is truly impressive,” he said.
In introducing its five-star rating, ANCAP referenced Triton’s extensive airbag installations, including dual frontal, side chest-protecting and side head-protecting, driver’s knee, and centre airbags. These are fitted as standard across the range.
ANCAP also mentioned the extensive active safety suite, including AEB (car-to-car, Vulnerable Road User, junction and backover), as well as the lane support system with Lane Keep Assist, Lane Departure Warning and speed sign recognition.
