Mitsubishi Motors Australia has unveiled the latest chapter of its ‘Nothing can frighten a Triton’ campaign, this time showcasing the ute’s legendary Super Select II 4WD technology.

 

The humorous spot created by Richards Rose and directed by Justin McMillan from Clockwork Films, sees a grumpy old farmer begrudgingly accept a lift in new Mitsubishi Triton. Along an action-packed journey he gives directions back to his farmhouse and in doing so puts the Triton and its younger driver through their paces. Each time a new 4WD mode is selected the farmer’s mood improves, at least momentarily.

Says Karen Bradley, senior manager marketing from Mitsubishi Motors Australia: “Both Richards Rose and Clockwork Films rose to the challenge and have done a fantastic job to deliver an authentic yet distinctive commercial. It’s rare to have a USP these days so with our 4WD technology, we knew we had to be bold and captivating to engage ute buyers. We are confident that the humour in this ad will leave a smile on everyone’s dial!”

The campaign is live this week on national broadcast and social channels.
