Discover the 2023 ISUZU mu-X: Stylish, Spacious, and Adventure-Ready
The 2023 ISUZU mu-X seven-seater SUV range has undergone a comprehensive update and expansion, making it more alluring than ever before. Boasting sleek design upgrades, new interior features, and advanced technology, the mu-X now offers a wider selection of models, including the much-anticipated four-wheel drive version of the high-spec 3.0 LSE and the value-oriented 1.9 LS model.
Sleek Exterior Design
The mu-X receives a sophisticated exterior makeover, featuring dark Magnetite finishes on the radiator grille, front and rear bumpers, fog lamp bezels, roof rails, and side steps, replacing the previous Tungsten silver and chrome accents. The refreshed rear combination lamps complete the modern look of the vehicle. Additionally, the LS models now come equipped with 18-inch alloy wheels, while the LSE and Onyx models boast new 20-inch machined alloy wheels, adding to their curb appeal.
Sumptuous Interior
The mu-X's spacious and flexible cabin has been enhanced with premium materials and functional improvements. The dark Magnetite accents featured on the exterior continue inside, providing an even more exclusive and upmarket ambience. Leather seats now come standard across the range, incorporating eight-way power adjustment and manual lumber support for the driver, as well as four-way power adjustment for the front passenger. To improve comfort, the seat cushions have been revised, and heel mats are now included for enhanced durability in the front floor areas.
Adventure-Ready 3.0 LSE 4x4 AT
The new four-wheel drive LSE model shares the same powerful 3.0-litre turbodiesel engine as the rest of the range, generating 140 kW at 3,600 r/min and an impressive 450 Nm of torque from 1,600 to 2,600 r/min. An electronically controlled part-time four-wheel drive system allows for easy switching between 2H, 4H, and 4L using a rotary dial on the centre console. Coupled with ISUZU's latest six-speed automatic transmission and a standard rear differential lock, the 3.0 LSE 4x4 is adventure-ready and offers exceptional traction on various terrains.
