Mitsubishi announces its new L200 double cab Long Bed option

Mitsubishi L200 Animal Long Bed

Mitsubishi Motors in the UK has now released the latest version of the L200 pick up truck, offering more load length and more power to end-users. It may not come as too much of a surprise that Mitsubishi’s planned marketing campaign will ask the questions “what would you do with an extra 7 inches and a bit more poke?”


More load-carrying capacity
The L200 Long Bed will run alongside existing L200 Standard Bed variants and will feature load beds extended by 18cm in overall length, with no reduction in passenger cabin space. The cargo area is also higher and squarer at the rear, increasing carrying volume.

Due to limited factory supply the Long Bed variant is initially only available in Double Cab 4Work, 4Life and high-series Warrior and Animal variants.
