The all-new third generation Isuzu D-Max has been spotted in Malaysia. The photo has been speculated to be taken at Pekan, Pahang, where the assembly plant of Isuzu vehicles is located. There seemed to be several units of the all-new Isuzu D-Max being tested, presumably different variants of it judging by the variation of wheels. Not expected to be launched until 2022, you say? These units are likely imported from Thailand for local parts development purposes. Trial production has yet to begin a

Several months ago, the all-new third generation 2020 Isuzu D-Max made its global at the 2019 Thailand International Motor Expo. With chunkier looks and a far more refined interior, the all-new D-Max is a massive upgrade from the current model. However, the all-new D-Max won’t be launched in Malaysia anytime soon. According to Isuzu Malaysia’s CEO Mr. Koji Nakamura, the third generation Isuzu D-Max is at least two years away. Isuzu Malaysia had only launched the facelifted 2019 Isuzu D-Max, now

Pegangan pasaran trak pikap di Thailand bukanlah sesuatu yang dipandang enteng. Negara tomyum ini begitu menggemari trak pikap, ia adalah pasaran kedua trak pikap secara global selepas Amerika Syarikat. Di Malaysia, Toyota Hilux tentu sahaja mendominasi pasaran kita tetapi hanya jauhari mengenal manikam. Di Thailand, Isuzu D-Max adalah pilihan utama bagi trak pikap. Adakah mereka memanggil trak pikap “Demak” sama seperti kita memanggil “Hailak”? Menurut laman sesawang Headlight Magazine, Isuzu D

Almost 300 new orders of Isuzu D-Max trucks received before the start of the Movement Control Order have been stuck in limbo since March. Now that the government has partially lifted the order, Isuzu Malaysia is working hard to make sure these new owners will be able to finally collect their new pick-up trucks. Isuzu’s Pekan plant will be working double time to process the trucks and dispatch them to various dealerships across the country. Meanwhile, Isuzu showrooms nationwide has put in place a

Come 15-June, all locally-assembled (CKD) passenger cars will be granted full exemption from the 10 percent sales tax. The keyword here is passenger cars. So although the Toyota Hilux and Isuzu D-Max are locally-assembled, both models will continue to be taxed at the current 10 percent rate because pick-up trucks are classified as commercial vehicles (though private registrations are allowed). The Toyota Hilux is assembled at UMW Toyota Motor’s Assembly Services Sdn. Bhd.’s manufacturing subsidi

Back in early-2020, we reported that the all-new RG-generation Isuzu D-Max won’t be arriving in Malaysia until 2022, but that could soon change. Also Read: All-new third generation Isuzu D-Max won’t be in Malaysia until 2022 Recent checks with various Isuzu dealers have indicated that stock is depleting quick, hinting that the next-gen model could arrive sooner than expected.

The all-new 2021 Isuzu D-Max has been spotted again in Malaysia. This time, the upcoming pick-up truck was spotted at Westport, thus confirming that it is imported (CBU) from Thailand. If that is not enough, the Mitsubishi Triton parked beside it will further cement that notion, as the Triton is also imported from Thailand. The outgoing D-Max is locally-assembled (CKD) in Pekan, Pahang. Just like the earlier Suzuki Swift Sport spyshots, these photos were kindly provided by reader Emmanuel Shirle

Toyota Hilux Isuzu D-MAX Seiring dengan insentif PENJANA yang bermula pada 15 Jun ini, ramai yang sedang berkira-kira untuk mengambil peluang ini untuk membeli kenderaan. Namun tahukah anda bahawa potongan cukai jualan tersebut tertakluk kepada kereta penumpang sahaja? Hal ini menyebabkan segmen trak pikap tidak terkesan dengan insentif ini. Walhal, jika diikutkan, Toyota Hilux dan Isuzu D-Max turut dikira sebagai kenderaan yang dipasang tempatan (CKD). Lebih-lebih lagi, kedua-dua trak pikap pop

The all-new Isuzu D-Max made its global debut last Friday in Bangkok. Key changes of Isuzu’s latest pick-up have already been covered in our launch story but the product videos released by Isuzu Thailand yesterday revealed several more bits of information that weren’t covered previously. We now learned that the all-new D-Max’s air-conditioning system also features a PM 2.5 filter, the same type of medical grade filters used by hospitals and anti-haze air filters.

Nampaknya, Isuzu D-Max baharu akan dilancarkan di Malaysia lebih awal daripada saudara kembarnya, Mazda BT-50. Kami difahamkan bahawa pengedar Mazda di luar negara memberi laluan kepada rakan sekerjanya Isuzu untuk melancarkan D-Max baharu terlebih dahulu. Di Australia, pelancaran Mazda BT-50 sengaja dilengahkan selama sebulan. Untuk maklumat anda, perasmiannya di pasaran tersebut beransur sebulan selepas pelancaran Isuzu D-Max.

Isuzu Malaysia has just introduced the updated Isuzu D-Max 2019, now available with the new 1.9-litre Ddi BluePower turbodiesel engine. The new smaller capacity 1.9-litre engine replaces the older 2.5-litre engine. Although smaller, it makes 14 PS more power (150 PS) and 30 Nm more torque (350 Nm). The larger 3.0-litre engine remains available. As before, it makes 177 PS at 3,600 rpm and 380 Nm at 1,800 - 2,800 rpm. Transmission choices for the new 1.9L include a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed auto

It looks like the Isuzu D-Max is not at risk of being upstaged by its sister-car the Mazda BT-50, as the D-Max will be launched in Malaysia ahead of the BT-50. WapCar.my understands that there is a direction by Mazda Motor for its overseas distributors to show respect to its partner Isuzu by granting Isuzu the privilege of launching the D-Max first. In Australia, the first export market for the all-new D-Max, Mazda Australia had intentionally delayed the launch of the BT-50 there by one month, a

看来,Isuzu D-Max似乎没有被其双生车型Mazda BT-50超越的风险,因为D-Max将先于BT-50在马来西亚上市。 据WapCar.my了解,Mazda向其海外经销商下达了指示,要求要尊重其合作伙伴Isuzu,并给予Isuzu优先推出D-Max的特权。 在全新D-Max的第一个出口市场——澳大利亚,澳洲Mazda公司有意将BT-50在当地的上市时间推迟了一个月,并在2020年9月29日才公布BT-50的价格和规格,比Isuzu D-Max到达当地的Mazda经销商处晚了近一个月。 或许这也是Mazda决定抛弃之前的合作伙伴Ford,转而选择Isuzu的原因。两家日本企业有着相似的文化和思维方式,合作的效果似乎很好。 推荐阅读:Mazda BT-50: This is why Mazda chose the Isuzu D-Max over the Ford Ranger Mazda BT-50是与Isuzu合作开发的,Mazda以Isuzu D-Max为基础,重新进行了造型设计,但在车体下,BT-50的机械结构与D-Max其实是完全相同的。 在此之前,Mazda BT-5

First launched in 2011, the current generation Isuzu D-Max is the oldest pick-up truck in the segment. To keep it current, Isuzu Malaysia has given the D-Max yet another mid-life update. For 2019, the new Isuzu D-Max now comes with a smaller capacity (but more powerful) 1.9L BluePower Ddi 150 PS engine.

Isuzu Thailand has just taken the wraps off the all-new D-Max, just a week after teasing the all-new pickup truck. From the exterior, the all-new Isuzu D-Max gets a redesigned front fascia, incorporating a massive front grille with the Isuzu nameplate sitting right on top.

Isuzu is currently the world's biggest manufacturer of diesel engines. The 1.9-litre Ddi Blue Power engine is one of the most reliable engines today and their line-up only consists of pick-up trucks and, occasionally an SUV. But there was a time when Isuzu made cars. Like regular cars. Isuzu’s car history was pretty much a mixed bag. The company was first established in 1916 as Tokyo Ishikawajima Shipbuilding and Engineering Co., Ltd. It started using the Isuzu name from 1949 and its first passe

Sugumaran, whose business requires him to visit oil-palm plantations often, is new to the Isuzu family. Both men were surprised by their win and could hardly bel

Isuzu’s new pup proved its worth in the gruelling Borneo Safari challenge and even gets given the organiser’s Special Award as a recognition of its remarkable off-road capabilities. Right before Borneo Safari kicked off, Isuzu was proud to announce that they will be throwing the newly introduced Isuzu D-Max Blue Power 1.9-litre engine into the Borneo wild. Like all its brethren that went on the Safari before it, the Blue Monster also had minimal changes to the standard truck. Among the modificat

The Isuzu MU-X, the D-Max's SUV cousin has been in production since 2013 with a facelift introduced in most markets in 2017. While the D-Max has been given a new third-generation which was launched in 2019, Isuzu has been pretty mum on the MU-X. Well, the team at AutoWeek Netherlands has managed to dig up some patent images while scouring through the Japanese patent office for what appears to be the all-new 2021 MU-X. These patent images were apparently registered by Isuzu. And it’s not just you

While Malaysians are still getting acquainted with Isuzu’s new D-Max 1.9, Isuzu has already completed its set-up to send their newest pup on Borneo Safari.
