    2014 Isuzu IPV is already using the new 4JK1-TC turbo intercooler crdi engine. The Hilux FX uses the same engine as the D4D innova. Purpose is for cargo delivery during office hours, and employee shuttle bus service in the morning and afternoon. Which would be better? TIA.

    Meron na palang IPV nung bagong D-Max? If I were you, I'd take the more established model. Since this will be used for work, ease and low cost of maintenance and upkeep is most important. Being new, you may have trouble finding parts for the 4JK1 outside of the casa. The Hilux on the other hand has been around for quite a while and its strengths and weaknesses are already well known. The 2KD engine is probably the most encountered modern diesel engine out there, being present in four Toyota bestsellers. Parts availability and mechanic familiarity shouldn't be a problem.

    +1, one more thing that goes against the Isuzu is that parahin ng mga buwisit na ASBU, makita palang tatak ng Isuzu parang automatic na na paparahin agad kahit di naman mausok.

    Thanks for the replies. Added info nakuha ko: yung 4jk1 engine has a torgue of 280 nm vs toyota's 200nm, and hp is 114hp vs 100hp. Even with a perceived stronger engine, yung IPV is priced P28,200 cheaper than the Hilux FX, without insurance, including registration.
