TRUCK DNA NO NONSENSE TOUGHNESS
At the heart of every Isuzu vehicle lies our tried and tested truck DNA – a refined combination of power, efficiency and reliability developed over a century of specialist engineering. One of the world's leading diesel engine and commercial vehicle manufacturers, Isuzu has produced over 25 million of the most advanced, reliable diesel engines in the world. Just ask our customers.
This engineering, combined with our 'truck-tough' chassis design and millions of kilometres of torturous testing, make both the Isuzu D-MAX and MU-X more than capable of handling any situation you can throw at them. Our truck DNA typifies the strength of Isuzu, and we give it to you in every vehicle we make.
ISUZU POWER MAXIMUM POWER FOR MINIMUM INPUT
Famous for its durability, reliability and fuel economy, the Isuzu 4JJ1TC 3.0L turbo diesel engine is exclusive to Isuzu and the perfect powerplant for a lifetime of D-MAX and MU-X adventures. Also found in many of Isuzu’s N-Series trucks, this engine, when coupled with the D-MAX and MU-X is never stressed and delivers outstanding performance, economy and reliability.
FUEL EFFICIENCY
Our engines have long been famous for their superior fuel economy. Cutting edge technologies found in the fuel system, turbocharger, gearbox and the vehicle aerodynamics are key contributors.
Many design secrets and cutting edge technologies contribute to the vehicle’s fuel efficiency. Our vehicle’s aerodynamic body designs, for example, were tested in Japan’s bullet train wind tunnels to ensure maximum aerodynamics and minimal drag.
The most important factor however, is the Isuzu turbo diesel engine which uses Isuzu’s super high-pressure common rail fuel system as well as an advanced Variable Geometry System (VGS) turbo charger to develop maximum power while using minimum fuel. Plus, an intelligent 5-speed automatic gearbox ensures you’re always in the correct gear and saving fuel.
