Mitsubishi L200 Vs. Ford Ranger - Which Model Should You Get For Your Pick-Up Truck Lease?

A pick-up truck combines the comfort of a car with the hauling capacity of a van. For businesses that give importance to mobility, whether in moving personnel or delivering products, a pick-up truck lease can be the cost-effective solution you're looking for.

Among the vehicles that many business owners consider, pick-up trucks are the leading contenders.

After several reincarnations, the L200 remains one of the leading pick up models, continuously setting the benchmark by which vehicles of its class should be judged. In its iteration as the Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian, the four-door manual sets the standard for safety, maneuverability and handling. The Barbarian comes as the replacement of the Animal and adequately fills the shadow of its predecessor in terms of styling, fuel economy, power and passenger comfort. True to its name, the Barbarian is a beast, boasting of one of the best power-to-weight ratios among pick-ups available.

Not to be left behind is the Ford Ranger Limited 2.2. Deft at handling both on and off-road terrain, it boasts of a new four-wheel drive system that features Traction Control, Electronic Stability Programme, Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control. The pick-up shines in the arena of passenger protection with features such as driver and front passenger airbags, side curtain airbags, driver and front passenger side impact airbags, and drivers' knee bolster airbag. The ranger bolsters passenger protection with the addition of ABS, emergency brake assist, and electronic brake force distribution. If passenger safety is your primary criteria in the selection of a pick-up, the Ranger is your best bet.

The Barbarian and the Ranger are welcome additions to any business' fleet. Though different, both are strong contenders in terms of performance and style.

If you are considering the idea of acquiring a new vehicle for your business, why not consider a vehicle lease? In the different countries, vehicle leasing has emerged as one of the more popular, cost-effective alternatives to purchasing a new vehicle. It is similar to owning a brand new vehicle without the associated headaches of buying one. It is particularly beneficial for businesses that have a dire need for a pick-up and yet do not want to jeopardize their cash flow. Whether you are considering the Barbarian, the Ranger or another pick-up truck model, leasing offers unbeatable benefits that cannot be simply ignored.


In case your company is in need of trucks to lease with great power and stability, Mitsubishi L200 is your best bet.
