CMH Mitsubishi The Glen Sharing Tips for Parents of Learner Drivers

By

First and foremost, both the guardian and child must maintain a sense of reality. Your child is a first-time driver and will most likely have no prior experience behind the wheel of a vehicle. As a result, a new driver may be unaware of how sensitive and delicate the brake and accelerator pedals can be. As the parent of a learner driver, this may be your first experience assisting or teaching someone to drive.

Learner Driver
CMH Mitsubishi The Glen ASX

Furthermore, there are many challenging factors to consider when driving, even for an experienced driver – from carefully checking car wing mirrors and shifting between gears smoothly.

Learner driver

Learning to drive requires a lot of multitasking and building confidence. Make sure you have enough time to teach and support your child and avoid putting too much pressure on them to learn this new skill quickly.

Learner Driver
Road signs

The top five tips that we at CMH Mitsubishi The Glen would recommend are:

  • Take your time.
  • Find comfort and familiarity in your vehicle.
  • Change the driving environment often.
  • Invest in professional lessons with a qualified driving instructor.
  • Lastly, teach your child vehicle responsibility (proper ways to care for one’s vehicle).

CMH Mitsubishi The Glen Helping You Find the Right Type of Vehicle

By

With so many vehicles on the market, it can be hard to figure out which type is right for you. The decision may not be as simple as a 4WD or a hatchback. There are nuances between vehicles to consider, such as lifestyle and budget.

To help you decide, CMH Mitsubishi The Glen has compiled a short list of leading vehicle models, their characteristics, and their unique points.

Mitsubishi Triton

The Ute or 4X4 has come a long way from humble beginnings. This hard-working vehicle will offer ample comfort and space combined with performance and utility. If you are interested in a ute/4X4, the Mitsubishi Triton embodies this with its reliance on any terrain, from river crossings to beaches. With the ability to switch between 2WD and multiple forms of his 4WD, you have no choice. The features include a rugged design, great for off-road riding, huge storage capacity in the rear chassis, plus it is towable. Truly a perfect car for families, professionals, and working men.

A station wagon is a sedan with its roof extended rearward over the cabin and cargo area. This roof style allows the vehicle to fit more cargo in the back. Just like hatchbacks, station wagons have a rear door for accessing the cargo compartment and two seating rows, with five seats in total. If the wagon is your preference, the Eclipse Cross has a generous cargo capacity of up to 405 litres with intuitive handling ensuring none of the contents will move around.

In the flexible Outlander, all rear seats are foldable, giving up to 1717 litres of cargo space in the seven-seater models. These vehicles also feature state-of-the-art safety features to protect you and your family. Both have the option of a plug-in hybrid, meaning you can have that space while enjoying efficient electric power. Its attributes include plenty of space and safety features, making it perfectly suitable for families.

Eclipse Cross

A station wagon is a sedan with a rearward roof over the cabin and cargo area. This roof shape allows the vehicle to accommodate more cargo in the rear. The station wagon, like the hatch, has rear door access to the cargo compartment, and it has two rows of seats for a total of five.

At the cart’s touch, the Eclipse Cross has an ample cargo capacity of up to 405 litres and intuitive operation that keeps the contents stationary. The 7-passenger Outlander boasts flexibility with its foldable rear seats, offering up to 1717 litres of cargo space.

These vehicles come with cutting-edge safety features. Both have the option of plug-in hybrids, allowing you to save space while enjoying efficient power. Their properties include adequate space and safety features and are fitting family vehicles.

SUV

An SUV is a car that emphasizes interior space and load capacity. SUVs usually seat 5 or 7 people and are very versatile vehicles. With 4WD capability and ute-matching towing capacity, this car is equally at home on country roads as it is for everyday hauling on outdoor road trips. Do you have an SUV? The mid-sized SUV Mitsubishi ASX is space efficient, with split-folding rear seats and versatility for both rural and urban driving. If you wish for something robust, with 3.1 tons of towing capacity with brakes and an optimized off-road mode, the luxury SUV Pajero Sport will appeal to those who like ruggedness. The features of this vehicle include powerful 4WD performance without compromising style and comfort.

CMH Mitsubishi The Glen
Mitsubishi ASX

Coupe

The Coupe has two doors and a low, fixed roof for a refined and sporty design. A very stylish option for singles or couples, Coupe rear seats are usually not spacious enough for adults and are mainly for those who value style as much as performance. It is both modern and powerful.

Hatchback

The Hatchback is a passenger vehicle with a liftable rear door called a liftgate to access the cargo area. Most hatchbacks are two-row he five-seater and have two or four rows of passenger doors, but some variants have only one row. The luggage compartment connects to the cabin. The user can fold down his second row of seats to create more luggage compartments. It is small and easy to manoeuvre and is ideal for city driving and everyday use.

CMH Mitsubishi The Glen Describes the Difference Between Rims and Hubcaps

By

The Glen Mitsubishi ensures quality in every aspect of its vehicles. Every car has a rim, a round piece of metal that the tyre rides on and connects the tyre to the vehicle. The precise definition of a rim is the outer edge of the wheel with the hub and spokes inside. Not all car tyres have hubcaps. Hubcaps are attached to the rims to enhance the appearance. Whether or not it protects your car by keeping salt water and mud from splashing under it is debatable.

Key Differences Between Rims and Hubcaps

Rims are always metal, whether steel or aluminium. Hubcaps are made of plastic or metal. The rim is always on the wheel’s outer edge, in contact with the tyre. A hubcap is added to the wheel. They cover the centre of the hub or wheel, but hubcaps can cover the entire wheel. Rims and hubcaps function very differently. The rim supports the tyre and keeps it firmly attached to the wheel. At best, a wheel cap will protect your wheel nuts from rusting or catching them if they fall off. This practical use is why you still find hubcaps for heavy-duty trucks. Keeps dirt out and protects wheel bearings. Hubcaps can also be purely decorative.

Decorative hubcaps are popular as they are easy to install or replace as DIY enthusiasts like without involving any heavy lifting gear. Rims provide more protection to the wheel than traditional hubcaps but are also known to be more stylish. Adding rims to your car dramatically improves its appearance and greatly enhances the overall aesthetics of your car. Rims come in a variety of designs and vary in price. At CMH Mitsubishi The Glen it is evident that most of our vehicles have mags, further enhancing the quality and standards of the vehicles.

Come to CMH Mitsubishi The Glen to view how wonderful a Mitsubishi looks with its unique mag designs.

A Double Cab Bakkie Under R500K – Mitsubishi Triton GL

By

At CMH Mitsubishi Pinetown our mission is to make sure that our clients receive the latest version of all vehicles launched by Mitsubishi Motor South Africa. We are proud to introduce the New Mitsubishi Triton GL.

The Mitsubishi Triton is at the high end of the market in terms of its features, but its pricing has always been aggressively affordable. Now Mitsubishi has thrown down a very serious gauntlet with the GL M/T 4×2 priced R115K lower than the next trim level.

This updated Triton seems to be aimed at fleet owners, SMEs and those looking for a double cab lifestyle at a very reasonable price.

We all know features add to the price, especially in the double cab space. Mitsubishi did some careful cutting to reach this exceptional price, but the GL is by no means a box on wheels.

The most noticeable difference is the engine. While still the familiar 2.4-litre intercooled turbodiesel, it produces 100kW and 324 Nm versus the 133kW and 430 Nm of the more expensive models. Power is transmitted via a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential to the rear wheels.

You get a touchscreen sound system that can be upgraded to Apple/Android connectivity, electric windows and side mirrors. You also get auto air conditioning.

The standard leather upholstery has been replaced with a very stylish dark grey fabric. There is a centre armrest with a cup holder, a four-spoke urethane steering wheel, a USB port and a 12v accessory socket. The GL rides on 16-inch alloy wheels.

On the safety side, it is also full service. This means front airbags, ABS, EBD and brake override system, DRL lamp on the bumper and ISOFIX child seat anchors in the back.

Priced at well under R500K, starting at only R480 995, the GL fills a very prominent gap in the demanding double cab market. If you can live with fabric upholstery and rear-wheel drive only, the GL offers you the ride and build quality of a Mitsubishi Triton at a very affordable price. We suspect the compelling combination of price and features will attract smaller businesses and a large chunk of lifestyle buyers. Up until now, these customers had to settle for less appealing options.

Visit CMH Mitsubishi Pinetown at our home on 155 Old Main Road, Pinetown. For Triton models, the GL comes with a 3-year/100 000km warranty and a 5-year/90 000km service plan. Why not book a test drive of the all-new Mitsubishi GL M/T 4×2 and see if this brand-new package suits you by giving us a call on 031 710 9111 or Email. Leadmaster61@cmh.co.za

Mitsubishi ASX 2.0 LS

By

The 2022 Mitsubishi ASX 2.0 LS offers loads of value for money and feels solid on the road. This latest exterior design tweaks and spec upgrades make it a compelling choice in a bustling SUV segment. You can only have it with a naturally aspirated 2.0-litre petrol engine, a tried-and-tested power plant that’s powerful and frugal if you keep the revs under 3000rpm. Quite a few customers took this new entry-level ES version with a five-speed manual gearbox for a test drive and were highly impressed at how Mitsubishi has refined the model. This latest exterior styling of the ASX is stunning. It boasts the familiar bold grille and headlamp design language that you’ll see in the Triton and Pajero Sport.

We at CMH Mitsubishi Midrand can confidently say it is practically built for the family. At 4295 mm in length, 1770 mm wide, 1625 mm high and with a wheelbase of 2670 mm, the Mitsubishi ASX offers ample space on the inside without being cumbersome to drive. It also comes with a good ground clearance of 195 mm, giving you the ability to take on gravel roads without fear of bashing its belly on the ground. It is standard that the healthy ride height also makes it a pleasure driving around town, as you can glide over speed bumps and through minor imperfections in the road with more confidence than you can in a sedan. Customers that have come to Demo the ASX at our CMH Mitsubishi Midrand Dealership – have immediately liked the trunk space on offer at 406 litres, which you can also expand to 1206 litres if you fold the rear seatbacks flat. It’s an ideal cargo volume for sports equipment, kids’ school bags and gear, drones, camera equipment, and shopping. If you have a couple of kids, you will find its practical character appealing. It has this honest, no-frills feel to it. Also, easy to load and unload the child seat, as the vehicle comes standard to ISOFIX mounting points. It has more than enough features to ensure you feel comfortable and confident from the driver’s seat.

The ASX 2.0 LS has things you need as it comes with standard-fit LED headlamps that work beautifully to illuminate the road at night. The LED daytime running lights also give it a nice premium look despite its budget-oriented price point. In fact, LED rear taillights also come standard on the ES version of the ASX – something you pay extra for in some premium cars. Also, you can also upgrade the ES model’s head unit to one that accommodates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The speaker package is also respectable because you won’t need to upgrade on an aftermarket level if you enjoy thumping music in your car. This 2.0LS also boast other extras such as electric windows and mirrors, three airbags, anti-lock brakes, brake assist, electronic brake-force distribution, hill start assist, active stability and traction control systems, and cruise control, keyless entry, and engine start in the ES. Manual Aircon works well, and there’s a USB port for charging devices. The Mitsubishi ASX range comes with only one engine choice – a 2.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol four-cylinder that produces 110kW of power at 6000rm and 197 Nm of torque at 4200rpm. The ES Models offer enough pick-up from low revs to keep up with traffic and you can quickly shift through the gears from a standstill, keeping the revs under 3000rpm for maximum fuel efficiency. It also lets you achieve 8 litres per 100km in a combined cycle after 200 kilometres of assessment. You get to feel the petrol motor breathing harmoniously to deliver performance and enjoy driving the ASX in a sporty manner. If you want to spend less than R400 000 on something with robust build quality and technology that will work well past its warranty expiration, this is a car for you – It certainly has what you need for a reasonable price of R371 995, and it comes with a three-year or 100 000km mechanical warranty and a three-year or 60 000km Service Plan.

2022 Mitsubishi Triton Review – Everything You Need to Know

By

This dual-cab Ute boasts exceptional fuel economy, safety features, overall performance, and technological amenities. It boasts a keyless entry system, dual-zone climate control, and an excellent entertainment system that supports AppleCarPlay and Android Auto. The 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS boasts a well-built chassis, engine, and transmission in terms of performance. The motor produces impressive power and torque, resulting in low fuel consumption and a high towing capability while being relatively silent. In terms of transmission, you have a choice between automatic and manual, both of which are excellent. Finally, the 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS includes the exclusive Super Select II and a useful rear diff lock, allowing it to handle most road and weather situations. Pros • Excellent value for money • Numerous safety measures and equipment • An excellent all-around performance Cons • The engine can be noisy while accelerating • Dated interior design • Somewhat cramped rear seats Engine The 2.4-litre, four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine powers the 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS’s excellent performance. This 4N15 MIVEC DID intercooled engine is extremely dependable and has an efficiency that nearly belies its modest displacement.

It has a peak torque of 430 Nm at 2500 rpm and a power output of 133 kW at 3500 rpm. The 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS low-end grunt provides excellent performance and load capacity, including a braked towing capability of 3100 kg.

It’s also quite quiet, due to the lightweight materials used in the vehicle’s design and construction, yet it may be loud while accelerating. Overall, the Mitsubishi Triton’s engine delivers an outstanding blend of horsepower and efficiency.

Transmission

The manual or automatic six-speed gearbox is available for the 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS. We opted with a manual one since it is more dependable. Its light clutch and short-throw gear lever deliver accurate and quick changes, making long trips a breeze.

The automatic transmission, on the other hand, isn’t a problem at all. It appears to have optimised top gear ratios, resulting in a quiet engine with excellent fuel economy at high speeds.

The automatic 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS also includes a Manual Shift mode, which provides manual-like control. With the flip of a lever, you can change speeds.

Drivetrain

The Mitsubishi Triton’s Super Select II 4WD provides surefooted performance. This mechanism allows the driver to switch between 4WD and 2WD at speeds of up to 100 km/h. This allows them to adjust to changing weather and road conditions on the go. It features four settings and a rear diff lock to handle practically any terrain, from smooth metropolitan roads to harsh, dangerous terrains with little grip. The Super Select II system of the 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS is readily controlled by the flip of a switch. The following are the several modes available with this system:

High Range 2WD (2H)

2H exclusively powers the back wheels, lowering the car’s fuel usage under typical driving circumstances.

4WD Full-Time (4H)

4H distributes power to all four wheels. It’s suitable for rocky roads or any other dangerous situation.

4WD with a high range and a locked centre differential (4HLC)

In rough terrain with little grip, 4HLC can help lessen the Triton’s wheelspin.

4WD with a low range and a locked centre differential (4LCC)

The Mitsubishi Triton’s power and torque are entirely harnessed by the 4LLC, which provides maximum traction on extremely uneven ground. Steep ascents, thick snow, and sand are examples.

Braked Towing Capacity

The towing capacity of the Mitsubishi Triton is 3,100 kg for most dual-cab variants. It has a gross total mass of 5,885 tonnes as well. Because of its low kerb weight, the automobile provides an outstanding combination of towing capacity and payload.

What Are the Design Highlights?

Even if you do not purchase optional accessories for the Mitsubishi Triton, it comes with a plethora of features and equipment.

Exterior

All Mitsubishi Triton dual cab versions have 18-inch alloy wheels, LED lighting, chrome door handles and mirrors, and a number of Mitsubishi Motors Intuitive Technology (MiTEC) safety features.

Its sturdy ladder chassis enables excellent handling and stability whether driving on off-road trails or the highway since it provides adequate ground clearance. Meanwhile, at the front, the double wishbones with a stabiliser bar and coil springs provide plenty of response.

The leaf spring above the axle further helps the Mitsubishi Triton’s traction and load capacity. Furthermore, each model’s load tub is 475 mm deep, 1520 mm long, and 1470 mm wide, and it is quite sturdy.

Is the Mitsubishi Triton GLS 2022 Worth It?

The 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS is a fantastic 4WD dual cab truck that delivers outstanding value for money since it is available for less than R780 400. When you compare its pricing, features, performance, and dependability to those of its competitors, it’s clear to understand why the 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS is still one of South Africa’s top three 4WD utes.

Anyone in the market for a ute may acquire the 2022 Mitsubishi Triton GLS and rely on it for the next few years. After all, Mitsubishi’s vehicles come with a 10-year capped-price service plan and guarantee.
