All New Isuzu MU-X // Alterra Next Generation

[StockEngine]

Below I think Isuzu cleaned up the leg area...I don't know but its a small change. It should be good.

Still the same IMO. It just looks like what you said because the new Alterra has grayish black leather seats.

[StockEngine]

its not the seats. its the bottom part where your calves hit the carpet.

StockEngine, wag kana makulit. I own and drive a Trailblazer so I know what I'm talking about. Both the new Alterra and the Trailblazer have no knees up position at the 3rd row. Ilang beses na ako umupo sa 3rd row ng TB namin for many hours, I didn't have a knees up position. I have a height of 5"6.

I'm not GTi po.

I'm seeing differences. The Isuzu MU-X is not an exact copy of the TBZ like what you try to imply

and I certainly didn't mention anything about knees up...til now.

That may be because you're 5"6. You wouldn't have problems with most SUV 3rd rows. I'm around 5"11, and have issues with just about every front-facing 3rd row I've tried other than a van's. That makes things a bit different.

My uncle is a 6 footer, he's shopping around for a new 7 seater SUV nowadays. Big consideration to him is the leg room of the 3rd row. He rode shotgun with me 2 weeks ago on the TB and 4 weeks ago on the Monty. He sat on the 3rd row of both my SUVs. He told me that on the TB he didn't had a knees up position unlike on the Monty.

I don't get why StockEngine would insist that there is a slight difference on the 3rd row leg room of the TB and the new Alterra even though the 2 SUVs share the same platform and the same interior, exterior and wheelbase dimensions. In order for the Alterra to have a slightly better 3rd row leg room, the 3rd row seats should be a bit more elevated on the Alterra than the TB.

The only differences I can see clearly are the instrument cluster, the font colors of the Auto Climate Control A/C, the color of the leather seats, the tail lights, the engine, the transmission, the antenna, the DRL and the grille that also includes tge head lamps. Aside from that, nada.

I have the current (Old) generation Alterra, 2011, and the second row seats can be slid fore and aft, therefore greatly affecting the legroom of the third row.

Is this feature not on the new Trailblazer/Alterra?

Ciao!

I get you bro. And I think I know what StockEngine is referring to. If you look closely at the pictures comparing the Trailblazer and Alterra 3rd rows, you'd notice that the Trailblazer's seems to be rather uneven (malubak) while the Alterra's looks quite flattened or ironed out. I wonder how big the difference will be though. And then again, if the Alterra's seats are indeed more elevated, that would mean even lesser headroom...

There's none on the Trailblazer and it remains to be seen on the new Alterra if it has

Yikes!!!

I think I will be keeping my 2011 Alterra.

Ciao!

Look closely at the pics, yung sa Alterra mas malapit ang pagkakazoom kesa yung sa Trailblazer. Enough of this debate na nga. Mas maganda makita ito ng actual kesa pagbabasehan ang pictures

[joemarski]

Pagdating ng New Alterra, maging peborit rin kaya ito ng mga ASBU?

Sa mga merong kakilala sa isuzu phils baka meron na kayong balita kung kelan darating itong new alterra dito sa Pinas.

Thailand just opened a new factory just for this SUV. Their goal at the moment is Right Hand Drive for Australia(to be released there by December of this year) and Thailand of course.

The latest Generation of DMax for the Philippines will be built in the Philippines and this required the IsuzuPH to upgrade their facilities.

In short it will take a while, like 1-2 years before it gets released here.

Just in ...:kick:

Also boosting off-roadability is steel plate underbody protection on 4x4 versions and a claimed 600mm(TBZ does float higher at 799mm) wading depth.

Kerb weights range from 1900kg (4x2 LS-M) to 2060kg (4x4 (LS-T) and all versions have a maximum braked towing capacity of 3000kg and a tow ball mass of 300kg.

Like the D-MAX, the MU-X is covered by a five-year/130,000km warranty and five year roadside assistance.
