2013 Isuzu D-Max

[Ry_Tower]

Hehe. By the time they released that here, my bagong model nanaman sa ibang bansa. Haayy Isuzu Philippines.

At ang masama, irerelease na yung 3.2 Ford ranger. wahhhh

[weisshorn]

Nabibili pa rin kasi ang old model dito or masama lang talaga ang strategy ng isuzu dito sa Pinas. ???

[cktlcmd]

malay natin baka ina antay lang talaga ng Isuzu na ilabas lahat ng mga brands lahat ng bago at hi-end nilang models saka nila ilalabas yan.

Para ganun uli ang strategy nila... tatagal uli sa Pinas yun model na yan bago mag update uli.

The new D-max 3.0 iTEQ VGS Turbo is not bad at all despite of its relatively low power & torque numbers in the paper spec (180 metric-hp, 380 Nm torque from 1800-3000 rpm) compared to its competitors.... In fact, the 4x4 version kinain niya lahat ng toughest 4x4 pickups sa Australia (and in the UK, and the place where the diesel engine originated, Germany) for the best pickup of the year award, beating the vaunted Ford Ranger, the king-of-sales Toyota Hilux, Mazda BT-50, the new Holden Colorado (Chevrolet Colorado) and new Volkswagen Amarok.

Current News - Isuzu D-MAX picks up three Ute of the Year awards - Isuzu UTE Australia




The "other" new D-max, which is the Euro-issue D-max with the 2.5-litre twin-turbo 4JK1-TCK engine, won in Germany for 2013 under the influential Auto Bild Magazine and in the UK ;) ....This is now the nth time the D-max has won pickup of the year awards in Europe - way back in 2008, 2009 and 2010 for 3 consecutive years, the previous D-max "hood-scoop" 3.0 iTEQ VGS Turbo did it in Austria.

Cheers!

Maganda at matindi talaga ang dating ng Ford Ranger 3.2 TDCi sir.... Pero OK nalang muna sa aming karamihan sa Isuzu na may lumang D-max pa rin. Hintayin nalang namin ang arrival ng bagong D-max 3.0 iTEQ VGS. Nasa sale na rin sa mga ibang Southeast Asian countries sabi ng mga kaibigan kong nagtatrabajo doon, hindi lang sa Thailand, sana sapat na indication ito na darating nga sa Pinas.

Although target ko ay Volkswagen Amarok 2.0 TDi twin-turbo, pero hindi pa rin pala maalis ang paghanga ko sa D-max at baka bagong D-max na rin bilhin ko.

2013 4x4 Dual-Cab of the Year sa Australia (3.0-litre)
2013 4x4 Pickup of the Year sa UK (2.5-litre twin-turbo)
2013 4x4 Pickup of the Year sa Germany (2.5-litre twin-turbo)

Cheers!

Not only that it bested all pickups present in the 4x4 shootout by 4WD Action Australia, it was also the most fuel efficient of them all hehe ;)

The "other" new D-max, which is the Euro-issue D-max with the 2.5-litre twin-turbo 4JK1-TCK engine, won in a separate comparo in the UK, and in Germany for 2013 under the influential Auto Bild Magazine ;) ....This is now the nth time that the D-max has won pickup of the year awards in Europe - way back in 2008, 2009 and 2010 for 3 consecutive years, the previous D-max "hood-scoop" 3.0 iTEQ VGS Turbo did it in Austria in the AllRadChampions 4x4 comparo.

Cheers!

After winning the following:

1. 2013 Ute of the Year by 4WD Action in Australia (D-max 3.0-litre);
2. 2013 Vans of the Year Awards by VanzA27 in the United Kingdom (D-max 2.5-litre twin turbo); and
3. 2013 Europe's version Car of the Year AllRad by Auto Bild in Germany (D-max 2.5-litre twin turbo)....

....The D-max 3.0-litre won yet again Australia's 2013 Ute of the Year by Delivery Magazine ;)


Hindi lang pala dating Car of Year, thorough-bred 4x4 pa din shaming even the vaunted Ford Ranger 3.2 TDCi, but also a no-non sense utility pickup hehe.... Sabi ko na nga ba hindi inutility pickup ang D-max

Sulit talaga na ever since i've bought Isuzu D-max pickups.... Pinaka-tipid pa sa fuel sa lahat ;)

Cheers!

[sotel]

lumabas na ba sa pinas yung bagong dmax mga sir?

[d_mac]

Lumabas "nalang" bigla chief noong September 3rd week
.... But it still has the SOS engine, not the 4JJ1-TCX version plugged into it....

Cheers!


P.S.
SOS - same old s-h-i-t

Guys ask ko lang im planning to buy a set of tyre & rims for my dmax.. Ano dapat offset an specs ng tyres 17s sana kukunin ko.. Gusto ko sana sakto sa fender flare or 1" pop out sa fender yung goma.. Stock height no lift

Guys ask ko lang im planning to buy a set of tyre & rims for my dmax.. Ano dapat offset an specs ng tyres 17s sana kukunin ko.. Gusto ko sana sakto sa fender flare or 1" pop out sa fender yung goma.. Stock height no lift

To give you an idea, our stock dmax , with 16incher rims, has a Positive offset of 38mm(+38). Almost all stock rims of any brand has positive offset. I am using nitto terra grappler 265x70x16 all terrain tires and its just inside the fender. Halos pantay na. Ive tried the Black rhino rims, 17x9 with -12mm offset, with 265x65x17 nitto tires, at ang resulta? Sayad sa mudguard,the portion which is closer to the rear. Sabit sya kahit tanggalin ang mudguard sayad sya sa small portion ng inner fender. I think the largest tire u can use without changing anything that is, lifting, removing of the mudgyards, is 265x70x16, given that u will be using the stock rims or equivalent. If you shall use afternarket rims, stay away from rims that has negative offsets, that is if u dont want too much pop out about 2 inches or more. Also most rims that is 17incher has 9in width, so if u want onlt about 1 inch popping out the fender, 8in width will do(can be found on 16in rims). I think 16x8in rims with positive 25mm to 30mm offset will give you measurwments that u want.

Looks interesting! At least Isuzu Phil can quickly release the base models unlike the Ranger and Hilux.

Finally a guard frame bet. the cab and bed. Still no cargo hook on the sides (external) of the bed.

Mas oki-pa-sa olrayt sir yang 4JJ1-TC standard kung CRDi 2.5 4JK1-TC non-VGT lang ibibigay sa atin to replace the old non-CRDi 4JA1 engine ahihi ;)

As long as the engine has a bigger displacement even when it has only a wastegate turbo is fine by my standard. Oki na oki na ako diyan hehe ;)

Salamat sa info sir!

Hi guys.. Na iinis na talaga ako sa ipc.. Limang engine parin ung binigay sa atin where as chevy colorado is releasing its 200hp and 500nm torque next month.

Should i get the colorado instead? Haha

Sir hanggat marami ang tumatangkilik sa produkto nila, malamang hindi sila magigising sa katotohanan na ginagawa nilang tapunan ng lumang makina ang Pilipinas. Sa aking opinion deserve din naman siguro ng mga Pinoy ang makagamit ng mas mataas na uri ng makina kagaya ng mga ibang car makers.(sabi mo nga Chevy Colorado 200HP and 500Nm torque.)

YUP chief, get the Chevy Colorado 2.8-litre if you want it really bad ;)

For 2014 model, kailangan ni Colorado na mag-steroid up pa from 180 hp, 475 Nm to those figures you mentioned kasi sabi ng mga offroad reviewers sa Australia malamya daw ang low-end power na talo pa ng bagong D-max 3.0-litre na 180 hp, 380 Nm lang sa kargahan at GVM tapos may akyatan at sa fuel efficiency hehe ....

....Baka sakaling (pero tiyak yan ;) ) maganda na low-end rpm pull at mas responsive na from the get-go ang 2014 Colorado ;)

Goodluck!
