An updated Isuzu D-Max will be available for UK
customers starting October 1st, boasting enhanced specs and improved quality
for the interior.Safety systems such as the Trailer Sway Control are now
standard on all 4×4 versions, while the automaker has changed the double cab
suspension from a 5-piece to a 3-piece leaf spring setup, thus improving ride
comfort and reducing noise levels.
Other changes include a 10 kg reduction in
weight on double cab models, resulting in a payload increase of 10 kg. Also
available are three new exterior colors in Spinel Red, Sapphire Blue and Galena
Grey. Meanwhile, the range-topping Blade version will now be available in four
colors thanks to the addition of Obsidian Grey and Spinel Red.
The truck’s interior has also been refined, with
updated soft pad designs to the arm rests, binnacle and utility box lid.
There’s also gloss black trim on the window switches, air vents and glove box,
the latter now also featuring a new Isuzu D-Max badge.
Powering the updated Isuzu D-Max range is a
turbo-diesel engine delivering 164 PS and 360 Nm of
torque. It is said to meet Euro 6 emissions regulations without requiring
AdBlue. Customers looking to land a new D-Max will have to pay at least
£ 16,799 (exc. VAT) for the entry-level 4×2 Single Cab version, whereas the
flagship Blade will set you back as much as £ 29,799.
