Isuzu has applied a round of updates to its D-Max pick-up model for the 2023 model year.

The alterations are primarily cosmetic with a freshly styled front grille and new wheel designs across the line-up.

On the interior of the vehicles, there have also been some modifications. Although the hard-wearing cloth interior of the Business range models has remained unchanged, the Isuzu D-Max DL20 seats are covered in a more premium woven fabric with a refreshed design. Moving up the range, both the DL40 and V-Cross have been upgraded thanks to the newly designed leather upholstery.

A rear-differential lock option is also now available on all manual 4x4 Utility models in the range. This feature was made available for the 2022 Isuzu D-Max pick-ups and is continuing with the new-look Isuzu D-Max.

Isuzu unveiled the new model at the CV Show.

Speaking of the updated D-Max, Alan Able, Isuzu UK’s managing director, said: “As a brand, we are always striving for improvement and the new-look Isuzu D-Max is a testament to that. While maintaining our award-winning 4x4 expertise, we have added some significant visual enhancements and new features to elevate the driving experience for our customers. We are taking a step further into the lifestyle sector thanks to this new look, without suffering any compromise to the D-Max’s workhorse heritage and capability. It’s the same substance, with a different style.”

The Isuzu D-Max was once again named ‘Best All-Terrain Workhorse’ at the Fleet News Awards this year. Defending the title from 2022, the Isuzu D-Max excelled in the award category thanks to its reliability, as well as its versatility and capability.
