ISUZU KICKS OFF 2025 WITH A WIN-WIN FROM OVERLANDER 4X4

4/11/2024

Isuzu is proud to announce the first two wins for its pick-up in 2025. D-Max has been named the ‘Best Range’ and ‘Best Back-Up’ by Overlander 4×4 Magazine, recognising the Pick-Up Professional’s commitment to delivering an outstanding offering for its customers.

Receiving four awards in 2024, the Isuzu D-Max is carrying the momentum into 2025 and emerging as a frontrunner in the light commercial vehicle industry.

‘Best Range’
Isuzu D-Max range offers solutions to practical and lifestyle requirements, with its versatile and indefatigable reputation culminating in the award. From the hard-wearing Utility trim level, through the adaptable All-Purpose DL20 and DL40 models, to the range-topping V-Cross, Isuzu offer tangible solutions to a myriad of business and leisure requirements.

With the range-wide 1-tonne payload and 3.5-tonne towing capacity, and abundant off-road features including shift-on-the-fly 4WD, Hill Decent Control, and rigid ladder frame chassis; the entire D-Max range retains its workhorse DNA.

Isuzu UK have also partnered with Arctic Trucks to create the D-Max AT35, complete with 35” tyres, lifted Bilstein suspension, and wheel arch extensions resulting in an imposing presence and ultimate capability.

The scale of accessory options further showcases the Pick-Up Professionals’ ability to tailor the D-Max to its customer’s individual needs. This is typified by the recent inception of ARB Hubs embedded in selected Isuzu dealerships, enabling staff to provide expert guidance on the Australian outdoor accessory manufacturer’s product range, and offer exclusive ARB discounts.

Editor at Overlander 4×4, Alan Kidd, stated: “Isuzu offers a well-balanced range, the availability of key options such as automatic transmission and rear diff-lock from the Utility model up and its outstanding range of options and accessories, specifically thanks to its alliance with ARB.”

‘Best Back-Up’
Regarding the second award win for Isuzu UK, Kidd continued: “No other pick-up manufacturer’s customers are as overwhelmingly positive about their ownership experience and that of their interactions with dealers.”

Affirming the exceptional reputation that Isuzu dealers have amassed for the quality of service the network offers throughout the purchase and aftersales process, the Pick-Up Professionals have ensured an unmatched level of aftercare. Its 5-year/125,000-mile warranty and five years of full UK breakdown cover including local recovery, roadside, and home assistance provide customers further peace of mind.

Commenting on the two award wins, Managing Director at Isuzu UK, Alan Able, said: “We are immensely proud to have been recognised for the depth of the D-Max range and the comprehensive package we offer through our dealerships. Customer satisfaction is an essential pillar of the brand, from the point of sale all the way to the aftercare in our leading warranty and aftersales support. With our first awards for 2025, we are excited to carry this strong momentum into the following year.”

The Isuzu D-Max saw multiple awards in 2024, being named as ‘Best Pick-Up’ by Company Car & Van, ‘Best Diesel Pick-Up’ by Diesel & Eco Car, as well as ‘Vehicle of the Year and ‘Best Workhorse Pick-Up’ by Trade Van Driver. Additionally, the D-Max was awarded ‘Pick-up of the Year’ from Overlander 4×4 in 2023, consolidating its position as the ideal workhorse.
