Isuzu has announced a raft of minor updates for its D-Max ute21 Oct 2022  Snapshot
Isuzu Ute Australia has detailed minor running changes for the D-Max ute for 2023. The 2023 Isuzu D-Max will arrive in Australian showrooms from December 1, 2022, with pricing unchanged following adjustments earlier this year. Headlining the changes is wider availability of the entry-level 1.9-litre turbo-diesel engine – introduced last year and now offered with three new dual-cab SX variants: a 1.9-litre 4x2 cab chassis and ute, and a 4x4 ute. There's also new-look alloy wheels, a redesigned grille, fresh trim and paint finishes, and a tailgate gas strut for tubbed ute models. Another key update is the addition of auto-off blind-spot alert and rear-cross traffic alert when a towing connector/plug is detected – in contrast to the Ford Ranger’s trailer-ready system. A spokesperson for Isuzu Ute Australia said a retrofit kit will be available for current D-Max owners, but will incur a cost for replacement parts and labour. "Due to a difference internally between 21MY and 22MY, versus 23MY rear radar sensors, the Auto-off BSM and RCTA functionality cannot be added via a software update to 21MY and 22MY vehicles and will require the fitment of 23MY sensor hardware components, which will incur costs for replacement parts and labour," they said. "For more information on this process please speak with your local Isuzu UTE Dealer." Mazda Australia had “no new BT-50 related updates to communicate” for its platform-sharing ute. JUMP AHEAD
