All New D-max has arrived!

Today is the day when the "Dmax Conquers the Terrain". Thou weather condition seemed erratic, it would be nice if we (guys on board with family and friends included) can drop by and see the All New Dmax up close and personal.

I'll try to go later.

buti na lang at tinigilan ko na noon pa ang pag hihintay sa VGT DMAX.

Seryoso ba to? Pareho parin talaga ang makina na gagamitin, and not some stupid marketing error?

The original 4JJ1 isn't even offered anymore in any vehicle in Isuzu Thailand's lineup! After looking at their specs, all I see are the 4JK1-TC and TCX and the 4JJ1-TCX. Big disappointment talaga kung ganun.

Nope. It is indeed a new D-Max but probably not to be called an "All New" since the engine of the LS Models are still using the 4JJ1-TC --- but rather, "The All New D-Max 4x2 LT"!

yup the engine that produces 108hp and 280Nm of torque. tsk.. ;) hindi ba ito magiging underpowered since the new body is bigger or heavier than the previous one?

I suppose not. At least not too much. If the Hilux and Fortuner 2.5 non-VNT were adequate enough for the daily grind, this should be as well. Would've been nice if they brought in the 2.5L VGS Turbo though. Maybe they are reserving those for a later date?

but with this specs, can the new dmax compete with the ranger, colorado and even the VNT hilux?
