ISUZU's advertisement

[Skywalker]

Check the PDI motoring section today.

Beastly horsepower 130Ps * 3,800 rpm
Mighty torque 30kg.m * 2000rpm
...pero crosswind naman ang nasa picture. Parang misleading ah?

Highly efficient 19.198 km/l based on 02 DOE fuel economy run results(crosswind XTO)
...pero IPV naman ang nasa picture at hirap na ang XUV ko sa 12km/l on normal and realistic driving condition.

Euro3 compliant
....Trooper ang nasa picture at dito lang ako nag-agree.

Sorry to Isuzu guys ha pero wala lang ako sa mood today kasi nasira na rin ang exhaust pipe ko kanina.

OK ba ang "silent recall" nila or reme-remedyo lang?

On the other hand, happy pa rin ako sa XUV ko.

[dieselNUBI]

those isuzu are so full of BULLS***! let them eat their own ****!



Edit: Profane language edited out. Hinay-hinay lang puso mo... baka atakihin ka agad mabawasan tayo ng tsikoteer.

[wildthing]

oo nga bakit hindi inimplement ang truth in advertising dito sa atin.

[kiper]

un lang kasi ang kaya nilang gawin eh..haha..

totoo naman ung pinalalabas nilang fuel economy eh..kaso sino naman sa mga consumers nila ang gagawa pa nun? running at contstant 60 kph with out airconditioning.

[odell]

sa bagiuo siguro o kaya tagaytay. .absta some where hinde mainit..hehehe

kakalungkot naman itong balita to..
anyways. yung mileage figures, that was based on 60-80 kph driving speed. hindi stop and go traffic. When they did that test, umaga yun at highway driving. pero walang daya sa tire pressure and bukas din ata aircon.
i myself have not achieved that kind of a mileage. highest I got was 14-15 km/liter, provided 80-90 kph topspeed. leisurely driving lang talaga. 60-80 kph kasi ang cruising speed ng crosswind.

as for the power figures, ewan kung san nila napulot yan. alam ko 85 ps lang ang turbo version ng XUV/XTO. kung Fuego Supersport, 100 ps lang. Baka trooper, pero 160 ps max power nun.

well.. kunswelo de bobo na lang natin na matibay ang makina ng isuzu. yun na lang talaga ang strong point nya. :drool:

[dx8976]

i think if they are purposely misleading the public, maybe the public should show their disapproval by boycotting them?

[odell]

naghahahkot lang ng customers..

[dieselNUBI]

ooppsss! sori for my choice of words....

[Supierreman]

nabasa ko rin yun... 130PS for the crosswind?? bagong turbo with intercooler na ba?

[boybi]

nagpublish ng ERRATUM ang PDI today:

On the ISUZU DIESEL-UP
PRINT AD published
October 16, 2003, the
Horsepower and torque
specifications of the Isuzu
Crosswind should have
been "Horsepower: 85Ps
at 3,9000 rpm and Torque:
18.5kg.m/2,000rpm".

PDI Business Section, page B3.

erratum na nga, me mali pa rin: 3,9000 rpm

[OTEP]

Maybe there will be ang erratum erratum tomorrow.

[mazdamazda]

Beastly horsepower 130Ps * 3,800 rpm
Mighty torque 30kg.m * 2000rpm

you call 130Ps beastly? hahahaha! beastly can only be used on those with 200hp and up IMHO!

Highly efficient 19.198 km/l based on 02 DOE fuel economy run results(crosswind XTO)

hmmm... with no aircon, one passenger and drifting techniques you might... but they should publish a realistic city and highway figure... just like what is being done in the us...

[revoGSX]

I agree.. dapat yung realistic na city and hiway driving man lang... baka nga naka neutral pa yan sa hiway .. meron pa nga ako nabasa sa newspaper na yung nag-top dun sa economy run eh nasa 43Km/liters pa ata... ano yun nagtulak? tsk tsk..

tapos yung erratum eh nasa maliit na page siguro hehe

[krscla]

Hehe...

Nakapanuod ako dati ng "fun run" (hindi ako sure kung ito ang tawag...) ng mga Isuzu owners at ang pagkakatanda ko, 40+ km/liter ang nanalo sa isang category. Patay ang aircon, controlled ang traffic, neutral kapag pababa o nakabwelo na, etc. :D

Misleading talaga...

[mackvil]

yung advertisement kahapon 85 ps na..... hehehe

in fairness to isuzu, they based this claim on the DOE (dept of energy) supervised fuel economy run done Nov of last year .. read the article below...

http://www.motorista.com.ph/features...e_112002b.html

I also read the article published in Phil Daily inquirer last year. I think DOE tried to make the economy run as realistic as possible, meaning, no over-inflated tires, no free-wheeling, a/c on (not sure) and even-loads. Mga professional drivers pa yata yung mga nag-test drive. kaya nakuha nila yung mileage na yun, they limited the top speed to 80 kph. Well at least that what the article claimed. mas realistic yung mileage figures na to compared to the 40+km/liter na nakuha dun sa Isuzu Phils supervised FUN RUN na dayaan to the max ang labanan - over-inflated tires, no aircon, free-wheeling driving, RPM below 1500 at 5th gear... kulang na lang yata ipahila sa kalabaw yung mga rides nila while idling para manalo sa fuel efficiency :lol: :lol:

[Skywalker]

In fairness din sa Isuzu, Crosswind is still the most efficient of the 3 leading AUVs. :D

[revoGSX]

yup.. mas matipid ng konti ang isuzu diesel compared to toyota revo and mitsubishi adventure .. toyota ata pinakamalakas sa consumption ng diesel..

pero syempre.. we always wanted a realistic test drive not the one where you have to switch off the aircon at neutral sa highway..
