NEW LOOK ISUZU D-MAX

The updated Isuzu D-MAX range combines a working ute's practical capability with a refreshed design and a broader spread of equipment. Its revised exterior brings a new front grille, reshaped headlights, redesigned wheels and updated tail-lights, giving the model a more contemporary appearance while retaining its clearly functional character.

Across the range, the 3.0-litre turbo-diesel engine is specified with automatic transmission and four-wheel drive on the variants shown. The published figures of 140kW and 450Nm indicate a powertrain designed for demanding everyday use, while the stated 3.5-tonne towing rating adds useful flexibility for moving substantial loads. A five-star ANCAP rating is also listed for the range.

Body configurations include double-cab, single-cab/chassis and space-cab/chassis layouts. That breadth allows the D-MAX to be configured around different priorities, from carrying passengers and equipment in a double cab to providing a more adaptable platform for commercial bodywork in the chassis variants.

The interior receives an overhaul with revised seat patterns and trim highlights, alongside an updated multimedia system and USB-C connectivity. A new rough-terrain driving mode is designed to give the driver an additional setting when conditions become less predictable, and a seven-inch digital instrument cluster is available on selected versions. Higher-grade equipment shown for the X-Terrain includes leather upholstery and heated front seats, while dual-zone climate air-conditioning and 18-inch alloy wheels are listed for the LS double-cab specification.
