Four-wheel drive Isuzu MU-X becomes R150 000 cheaper
As with the D-Max on which it is based, the Thai-built MU-X now has four-wheel drive with its smallest engine.
Isuzu has reduced the price of its four-wheel drive Isuzu MU-X by R150,000, making it more affordable for customers. The move brings the four-wheel drive 1.9 litre turbodiesel engine to the entry-level trim level, undercutting the previous all-wheel drive 3.0 LS by the same amount. The 1.9 LS 4×4 model shares the same specifications as the 1.9 LS, with the difference being the addition of a low range transfer.
Both versions produce 110kW/350Nm from the RZ4E-TC engine, which is now distributed to either the rear or all four wheels through a six-speed automatic gearbox. The four-wheel drive model also features an underguard protection plate below the transfer case. Other features remain unchanged, including the tow rating of 2,100kg, ground clearance of 235mm, wading depth of 800mm, approach angle of 30 degrees, departure angle of 26 degrees, and breakover angle of 24 degrees. The 1.9 LS 4×4 AT model is priced at R789,900, while the 3.0 LS 4×4 AT model is priced at R939,700.
