Isuzu Reviews

The Isuzu MU-X is a no-fuss seven-seat SUV with heaps of space, and in top-spec LS-T trim, plenty of value for money. What better way to put it to the test, than a week-long family road trip holiday.

The dual-cab ute market is huge, and this test is a big one, too. We've assembled the six most popular 4x4 utes to see which is the king of the class.The contenders include the big-selling Toyota HiLux and Ford Ranger, as well as the Holden Colorado, Nissan Navara, Isuzu D-Max and Mitsubishi Triton.Which will win? Read on to find out!

Australians love the Isuzu MU-X and it's soldiering on towards its 10th year on sale. Peter Anderson spent a week with one - amazingly, for the first time in his career - to see what the appeal is.

You've come here for a towing review. You want to know the Holden Trailblazer towing capacity, and the Isuzu MU-X towing capacity, and which of these two is the "best SUV for towing caravan". Okay, you might actually have better grammar than that, but we know you've been searching for this test. So here it is!

Australia’s 4x2 ute market is dominated by the Toyota HiLux. It’s a favourite for many tradies, small business operators and government/private fleets due to its brand familiarity, load-carrying ability, reliability, variety of body configurations and resale value. And, no doubt, Toyota’s proven success in maintaining and growing fleet business.In 2019 the HiLux commands more than 36 per cent of the local 4x2 ute segment. However, unlike the battle to be top dog in 4x4 ute sales, Toyota’s closest 4x2 competitor is not Ford’s Ranger but Isuzu’s venerable D-Max, which currently attracts more than 13 per cent of sales. We recently trialled a one tonner from the D-Max 4x2 range to find out why it’s such a strong performer in this workhorse-focused market.

Isuzu's simple two vehicle range continues to buck sales trends with its loyal customer base and rugged off-road appeal. How does its latest X-Runner limited edition ute fit into the equation?

Located hundreds of kilometres from the nearest city, it's almost fitting that this idyllic 4x4 spot is in the heart of diesel country.

There are many different ways to approach the SUV segment, but ute-based off-roaders is one part of the market that's gaining traction.

If you want a lot of grunt or bells and whistles from your dual cab ute, the Isuzu D-Max likely isn't high on your shopping list. Its appeal lies in its truck engine and hardy attitude.

The MU-X is a vital vehicle for the small Japanese truck brand's passenger-focused Isuzu Ute range.
