that would be too long already. the ideal lifespan for an LCV is about 8-10 years... considering na may 10 years na ang Crosswind na dito since 1999, lumabas na ang kapalit ng Adventure (Fuzion) and Revo (Innova). Isuzu should be doing something about it... The question is: are they?

Lets give them the benefit of the doubt that they are doing something about it... they should have planned for the replacement a long time ago...

2001 po ang unang crosswind. the '99 were still the highlanders SL/SLX then the higher Xtrm in 2000-01. by 2010 or 2011 pa siguro para at least 10 years

An all-new Crosswind?

Wahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ha!!!!!

mphm... Wahahahahahahahahaha!!!

Hurhurhur...

*snicker*

*giggle*

Maybe in 2012...

Since they started selling the Crosswind, they've upgraded the Trooper at least twice, dropped it, upgraded and then killed off the Fuego, introdued the D-Max and Alterra, changed the IPV to the new D-Max platform and upgraded the engines on everything else.

The Crosswind is still using a ten-year old engine based on ancient engine architecture (OHV, timing gears and pre-combustion diesel... that's so... 1970's...) in a body whose basic structure was designed two decades ago. The pick-up which formed the basis of the Crosswind architecture has been dead for decades.

They actually managed to update the IPV after releasing the D-Max and still haven't touched the Crosswind... if they were going to modernize it, that would have been the time... now the D-Max architecture is falling (far) behind other, newer trucks in its class, I doubt that they will keep it that much longer... though with GM gone belly-up, I don't know if they have a development partner to donate a platform, anymore.

In fact, GM didn't do anything to modernize it... instead, they jumped on the Crosswind cashcow for their own "AUV", the Chevrolet Tavera...

-

I'd expect a new Crosswind platform (not one of these endless facelifts) by 2012, at the soonest... or never... if people keep buying it as it is.

*Disclaimer: I own/operate three Isuzus... two Crosswinds and a Hilander, and IMHO, none of the Crosswinds after the 00' XTO have been worth ****

Wag lang sana kamukha ng Alterra yung kapalit ng Crosswind.

**kevin3000** · May 6th, 2009 03:42 PM

sana 2.5 na crdi sa maliliit like xti or etc tapos dun sa malalaki 3.0 for sure papatok yan

More of an all-new price increase!

Definitely, not this year. I remember when the Isuzphil top honcho was interviewed in TopGear magazine few months back, it was mentioned that among the things they are cooking up for this year are variants of the Crosswind. Knowing them, it would be either colors, gadgets, and the like. In a sense, not really "all new".

IMO, the Crosswind line will be dropped in the near future. As to when will be dictated to current vehicle sales performance. The lower, then the sooner. As of now, there would be hesitancy considering its popularity esp. in the countryside.

I'm still hopeful that Isuzu will do some justice to prospective buyers considering the price of the top variant Sportivo is wading into CUV territory already----by providing them with a 2.5L more powerful, more modern powerplant and more safety features on the vehicle. Its very hard to imagine a million peso family carrier without ABS, 3pt safety belts.

All-new Crosswind? Probably never.
