A 5-speed manual gearbox does duty here and Isuzu claims that it can carry a payload of 1.2 ton effortlessly.

These prices are ex-showroom Mumbai and ‘Special Launch Prices’ as mentioned by Isuzu, which means we may well see a rise sometime later.

We would have loved to see a double cab option here. Let’s see if Isuzu considers it sometime later. So, if you were planning to buy the Tata Xenon’s pick-ups do have a look at these new Isuzu’s D-Max.
