Isuzu Unveils Newest Car Model to Replace Alterra SUV

Published

on

The thriving demand of Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) drives the Isuzu Philippines Inc. (IPI) to finally bring to the country its newest model that will replace to the aging Alterra model released way back in 2005.

During the Isuzu’s Privilege Night at the company showroom in Mandaue, the MU-X midsize SUV was unveiled by the IPI officers headed by Isuzu Cebu Inc. General Manager, Steve Gingco.

New Flagship Model

The all-new Isuzu MU-X is the IPI’s latest flagship model loaded with advanced technological and design features, making this premium SUV dubbed as “Ready to Impress”. The 7-seater MU-X is available in three variants: Top variants are called LS-A, middle variant is the LS-M, and standard model is the LS. All the LS-A variants are only available with an automatic transmission, while the LS-M and LS are manual transmission.

The MU-X LS-A 4×4 has either a four-wheel drive or a two-wheel-drive system paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission, and perfect for people who want new levels of comfort and convenience. It is the tagged at P1.478M.

Priced at P1.260M, the MU-X LS-M 4×2 is fitted with a two-wheel-drive system and a 5-speed manual transmission, and is ideal for customers who have already been accustomed to the usual SUV features.

The MU-X LS is equipped with the same features of LS-M, and recommended for the requirements of the first-time SUV buyers.

Safety Systems

The All-New Isuzu mu-X is also loaded with active safety systems. Its disc brakes in all four wheels have an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) that has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist (BA). Providing more security are the new Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Traction Control System (TCS), which automatically brakes a wheel or wheels if the systems sense any of these are slipping. This prevents skidding and loss of steering control, helping reduce fatal accidents by as much as 30%.

Easy Maneuver

With measurements a few centimeters shorter than the Alterra, the all new MU-X is designed with a spacious cabin and an exterior package that’s easy to maneuver and park. Every contour and character line adorning the vehicle’s body is the result of aerodynamic development, contributing to fuel efficiency.

Aside from its aerodynamic styling cues, the MU-X’s body also flaunts premium features like projector-type multi-reflector headlamps, center roof antenna, color-keyed front and rear bumpers (with integrated back-up lamps) and roof rails that can support 60 kilograms of cargo.

Other premium features also make it to the all-new Isuzu MU-X. These include dual climate control with rear coolers (the mu-X LS-A has automatic climate control), speed sensing door locks, three 12-volt accessory sockets, a total of 19 storage compartments and 12 cupholders, a lockable and illuminated glove box, side step boards, tow hooks, and many more.

The MU-X is already available in 6-color variants: Splash White, Silky Pearl White, Cosmic Black, Titanium Silver, Aqua Blue, and Outback brown.

The model is now available in any authorized Isuzu dealership across the country.
