If you’re looking for a decent load area and an honest ‘working vehicle’ the Mitsubishi L200 single cab might just be for you and with leasing prices available from just £161/month* it’s a great budget option too.
We have taken a look at some of the key pros and cons for the L200 and hope this helps you in your leasing decision.
Load area dimensions and payload
The Mitsubishi L200 Single Cab has the following load area dimensions:
- Maximum load length: 2,265mm
- Maximum load width: 1,470mm
- Load bed side wall height: 475mm
- Payload capacity is 1,060kg.
One of the reasons the L200 doesn’t quite carry as much as its competitors is that it’s a smaller vehicle but this makes it one of the most manoeuvrable pickups available – a plus if your regular driving routes are tight on space.
Specification
This is a really well spec’d pick-up.
All of the following are fitted as standard:
- Air-conditioning
- Bluetooth (with music streaming and steering wheel controls)
- CD-player with USB connectivity
- Electric windows
- Remote locking
- Colour coded front bumper
- Easy Select four-wheel-drive with rear differential lock
- Stop-start
- Driver and passenger airbags, electronic stability control, hill start assist and trailer stability assist.
Running costs?
You can only get the L200 Single Cab with a 152hp 2.4-litre turbodiesel engine. This is reasonably efficient at a claimed 40.9mpg.
Mitsubishi has also managed to meet Euro 6 emissions regulations without resorting to the extra weight, expense and complexity of an AdBlue tank – only a minor inconvenience for drivers but one that doesn’t come with the L200
With our maintenance included arrangements you also don’t need to worry about unexpected servicing costs.
What’s the L200 like to drive?
Reviewers have stated that the engine is “surprisingly refined” –It’s very quiet when cruising and the steering has been described as “light and accurate enough, this is a bouncy, slightly tippee-toed driving experience if you have to go any distance without any kind of load in the back, rolling through the turns and lurching over bumps.”
Overall
The Mitsubishi L200 single cab is generally well reviewed. Drivers are urged to “consider the load area and payload capacity limitations carefully” but for a pick-up on a budget we judge it as an excellent choice.
