ISUZU D-MAX Creel Splash 4x4 X-TERRAIN Volcanic Amber

The All-New Isuzu D-MAX has arrived and has redefined the typical Aussie ute – making it one of the top choices of tradies, families and adventure seekers alike.

Restyled with a ruggedly refined demeanour, the All-New D-MAX couples the latest in safety and connectivity technology, with the renowned reputation for reliability that Isuzu has built up over the years. Refined and repowered by the new 4JJ3-TCX 3-Litre turbo-diesel engine, with 140kW of power and 450Nm of torque, not only is it more powerful, but it is quieter and improves on driveability and performance.

Highlighting Safety is Isuzu’s Intelligent Driver Assistance System (IDAS) which is reinforced by a maximum 5-star ANCAP Safety rating—tested against the stringent 2020 protocols—crowning the D-MAX as one of the safest vehicles on Australian roads. Coming standard across the entire range, IDAS encompasses a suite of comprehensive safety and convenience features and combines Active Safety, Passive Safety and Driver Assistance technology to maximise the safety of occupants and other road users.

Comfort, connectivity and capability has also been engrained into this new-generation of tough—ensuring it not only looks the part, but is reimagined inside and out. Standard across the range, the All-New D-MAX comes with Android Auto™ and wireless Apple CarPlay®, cleverly housed within new 7” or 9” touchscreen infotainment systems. With premium soft-touch materials, extensive storage spaces and other functional interior amenities, the All-New D-MAX’s interior is luxurious, spacious and practical. With heavily revised suspension and a new stiffer body and chassis, the entire range is capable of towing up to 3.5-tonnes and constitutes a payload capacity of up to 1320kg (dependent on the model), meaning that it is more than capable of hauling around a heavy load—whether that be for work, or play.

With off-roader enthusiasts in mind, Isuzu engineers have improved the All-New D-MAX’s off-road tractability, durability and capability. Isuzu’s proven ‘4×4 Terrain Command’ is faster than ever; shifting into 4×4 modes quickly and seamlessly, with an electromagnetic rear-diff lock as standard ensuring constant traction when off the beaten track. Not only that, its engine air intake has now been conveniently placed to allow the D-MAX to wade through water of up to 800mm, improving its ground clearance with extensive under-body protection—ensuring all of the important components are safe and secure.

Backed by an extensive dealership network of over 157 authorised Isuzu UTE outlets, entire All-new D-MAX range also comes with Isuzu’s comprehensive care package, ‘Service Plus 6-7-7’; encompassing a 6 Year Warranty, 7 Years Roadside Assistance and 7 Years Capped Price Servicing—giving you complete peace of mind.

The All-New Isuzu D-MAX is available to test drive at Isuzu UTE Dealers now, each equipped as standard with the full suite of standardised safety and driver assistance technologies that has earned its place as one of the safest and most capable vehicles on Australian roads.
