The achievement bagged Isuzu the top spot for the overall truck brand for the 10th consecutive year and light-duty truck brand for the 14th consecutive year in Malaysia. The continuation of Isuzu’s market-leading position was cemented by a total combined retail sales of 7,209 units, including light, medium and heavy-duty trucks for last year, which represents 44.9 percen

Car brands have a certain tag or association surrounding them so if said brand decides to enter a segment that it had no experience in, it can be difficult to win over potential buyers. Proton tried to enter the pick-up market with the Arena but it turned out to be a slow seller and so did Mercedes-Benz when it introduced the X-Class. The X-Class itself wasn’t a pure Mercedes-Benz as underneath the three-pointed star grille is a Nissan Navara. There have been multiple rebadges of pick-up trucks

As far as appearances are concerned, few can make it more memorable than Akio Toyoda, who ventured onto the Queen Sirikit Convention Centre's expansive stage in a lowered, bespoilered, matte gray Toyota Hilux.

The 2021 Isuzu D-Max has flipped the script on the lifestyle pick-up truck market since its launch in April 2021.

Nissan has been having a bit of a renaissance moment lately. The all-new 2020 Nissan Almera is sweeping news feeds, the 400Z sports coupe is much-discussed and now we have news of the updated Nissan Navara NP300 pick-up truck testing in Thailand. To recap, this is the first Navara update since this generation was introduced 6 years ago in 2014. It'll be released as part of a 12-new-model offensive by Nissan, which includes the aforementioned 400Z. The last time we covered the Navara testing was
