Positioned at the entry-level end of the compact-pickup-truck spectrum, the Mighty Max was designed to attract value-conscious buyers who prized dependability and low cost over frilly styling. At its price point, the Mighty Max's primary competition came from the Isuzu pickup and the stripped base models from most other manufacturers.

The Mighty Max continued to rely on the 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder engine for power. It was rated at 116 horsepower at 5000 rpm and 136 ft.-lb. of torque at 3500 rpm. Electronic multipoint fuel injection, roller rocker arms and hydraulic valve lash adjusters contributed to both durability and reduced engine maintenance. Mitsubishi's 2.4 was one of the first mass-produced engines to feature dual balance shafts that reduce engine vibration. The base transmission was a 5-speed manual. A 4-speed automatic transmission was optional. The rear drum brakes featured a load-sensing proportioning valve that was used to adjust rear brake pressure to accommodate varying cargo loads, which helped to prevent rear brake lockup when the cargo bed is empty. All 2WD trucks used asbestos-free engine and transmission gaskets and clutch materials. Changes to the 1995 Mighty Max 2WD included a new knit fabric upholstery and two new exterior colors, silver and gray.
