The main differences between both variants are mostly to do with aesthetics, with the GSR gaining a front bumper garnish, fender arch mouldings, a bed liner, and a sports bar. Inside, both cars are similar, save for the GSR gaining orange accents to add a "sense of quality and fearlessness".

Interior specs aren't revealed just yet but it shouldn't differ too much from what the Thailand car gets, i.e. leather seats, a 7-inch digital screen flanked by two analogue dials, rear air-cond vents, and a free-standing touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
Further to that, the all-new Triton will be making its way to Malaysia later this year.
