Hmmm, interesting teaser.... .... and it seemed "shorter"....... which means it's more proportional!

My crystal ball tells me that the Isuzu Dmax and Alterra will continue to slightly improve/change every year for the next few years, stifled somewhat by the Japan and Thailand calamities and the fact that Isuzu is more of a large vehicle manufacturer (pickups, mid-size and large trucks, buses, industrial engines) than of personal transportation cars.

Isuzu caters to a different market than General Motors.

The Trailblazer/Colorado, which is the smaller brother of the Chevrolet Suburban/full size pick-up will be built and sold by the Chevrolet division of General Motors.

I really do not expect both (Isuzu and Chevrolet) to be in the same showroom.

Ciao!

This version (based in the above pictures) will definitely sell better than the current one. Looks and modern engine is very appealing.

[GTi]

GM has already introduced the Trailblazer and has started selling the Colorado as well. What is going on with Isuzu? Don't they have any sort of competitive spirit at all?

[hinDMaxsiado]

Gentlemen,

We all have to remember that General Motors and Isuzu Motors have differentiated themselves already.... And they will further on differentiate from each other in the years to come....

The 2012 MU-7 SUV will have the same engine and platform as the all-new 2012 Isuzu RT-50 pickup (180 ps, 380 Nm peak torque).... GM's Chevrolet Trailblazer, on the other hand, will share the same engine plugged into the all-new 2012 Colorado. This engine was developed by VM Motori of Italy, NOT Isuzu Motors. It is a 4-cylinder 2.8-litre CRDi engine, also equipped with a VGT, pumping around >180 ps but producing way higher pulling-force of around 450 Nm or 470 Nm of peak torque almost just as similar as the all-new 3.2-litre Ford Ranger's peak torque of 470 Nm....

Only one thing is for sure ---- since the GM and Isuzu covenant is over now, this Trailblazer will be offered here in Philippines at free will; no more Isuzu controling factor.... And thanks for it, the Isuzu factor is over now that GM can move forward freely to the Philippine-market, also offering their best products! ;)

[GTi]

Yeah. GM is bringing in a pickup that is almost the spitting image of Isuzu's offering here and with notable improvements, all the more reason for Isuzu to speed things up.

[hinDMaxsiado]

Boss GTi,

WOW!!!! Tunay nga naman napakaganda sir, and the best thing is, it is slated to come to the Philippines!!!! Worldwide offering will start in Thailand by 2012....

To top it of, that VM Motori 2.8-litre diesel CRDi engine that comes with it, pumps higher pulling-force numbers (peak torque at 470 Nm) than today's catbird of SUVs/CUVs, the 2.2-litre Santa Fe R-eVGT.... However, sooner by 2013, Hyundai will be offering an all-new Santa Fe, though we don't know when will the actual offering of this unit be in Philippines hehe ;)

Looks like for the choice of pickup this 2012, my double-thumbsup goes for the all-new 3.2-litre Ford Ranger TDCi, while for the the SUV, i would give my bet to this all-new Chevy Trailblazer

Coming next year!!!

[Ry_Tower]

^hehe, pabor ka pa rin talaga sa penta engine ng Ford Ranger ah.

Yung lamang na lang talaga ng Isuzu sa GM kapag dumating mga yan is that mas marami pa dealership nila ngayon.

But Isuzu needs to act fast talaga, sayang brand equity nila na na-establish kung papabayaan nila.

[GTi]

Isuzu should've tried an all new engine, or at least make it more powerful. Ngayon, yung ganoong power figures (180ps and 380Nm, tama ba?) are quite the norm na. If they want to stay the king of diesel utility vehicles, they'd better make more efforts.

Kelan kaya lalabas ang bagong Everest noh? I'd love to see that with the 3.2L inline 5. Wala nang panama ang mga Prado at Pajero kapag ganyan!

[dmaxx]

kilan kaya yan sa pinas?

[TholitzReloaded]

I'm also waiting for the New Eve, got a Gen3 baka mamaya ibenta ko ng di oras to pag nakita ko ung Gen4 Eve T6 engine.

[bluperskin]

may 2013 Alterra na.

[TholitzReloaded]

may 2013 Alterra na.

Anong itsura ng 2013 Alterra? Does it have new engine? what's the latest on the new alterra?

[Uncle Nick]

Anong itsura ng 2013 Alterra? Does it have new engine? what's the latest on the new alterra?

Visit: Tri Petch Isuzu Sales Co.,Ltd. to see the new Alterra and Dmax body. The engine supplied for the Philippines market is a big question mark at this point in time.

Ciao!

Uncle Nick.
