Isuzu MU-X, D-Max V-Cross & Hi-Lander BS6 Cars Expected To Launch Next Week: Details
Isuzu Motors India will be launching a couple of BS6 models after being absent in passenger vehicle space in the country. This includes the MU-X, the D-Max V-Cross and the Hi-Lander. According to the latest reports, the company is expected to launch all these models on May 10, 2021.
Starting off with the MU-X, the company will be bringing back the three-row premium SUV offering in the country. The BS6 MU-X will be similar in terms of design and features to its BS4 counterpart.
The Isuzu MU-X facelift was available in two variants: 4x2 and 4x4. Both variants are expected to be introduced in the BS6 format of the SUV as well. The Isuzu MU-X was powered by the 3.0-litre four-cylinder, diesel engine that produced 174bhp and 380Nm of torque. The engine is came mated to a 5-speed automatic gearbox with 4X4 and low-range mechanicals in place.
We expect the BS6 SUV to carry the same powertrain setup along with similar power figures. Alternatively, it could also feature the 1.9-litre diesel engine mated to an automatic powertrain from the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross.
Speaking of the D-Max V-Cross pick-up truck, it is also due for the BS6 update. The company will also be launching the BS6 V-Cross D-Max along with the new entry-level Hi-Lander variant making its debut in the BS6 format.
The top-spec D-Max V-Cross is expected to be offered with a 1.9-litre engine as standard. On the other hand, the Hi-Lander variant could feature the lower-spec 2.5-litre equipped powertrain.
The 1.9-litre unit produces a maximum of 161bhp and a peak torque of 350Nm mated to a six-speed automatic gearbox. The pick-up is expected to be offered in both 2WD and 4WD options.
While the 2.5-litre engine was only offered with a five-speed manual gearbox. The powertrain produced 135bhp and 320Nm of torque — 26bhp and 30Nm of torque lesser than the top-spec unit.
Speaking about the design, the BS6 D-Max V-Cross does not feature any major design changes from its BS4 counterpart. The pick-up will continue to feature roof rails, projector headlamps, side-step, a drop-down tailgate, external rear-view mirrors, front and rear bumpers, a scuff plate at either end and a chrome-finished grille; among others.
The interiors of the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross revealed from the images does not point to any changes from the BS4 model. However, it could undergo subtle revisions to enhance the premium feel of the cabin.
