The Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain has all the bells and whistles expected in an SUV that gets taken to a fine dining location.
SUVs have successfully made the transition away from rugged, unsophisticated off-roaders to luxurious people carriers over the last two and a half decades. But what about pick-up trucks? Well, as it turns out, the pick up segment has also been going through a series of radical changes over the last few years. As customer taste in South East Asia has evolved, so to has the pick-up truck. The Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain is the ultimate expression of this evolution. It blends the lines between SUV and pick-up truck by offering unprecedented levels of equipment, upmarket looks, and the latest technology.
Take the keyless start feature. This is the kind of technology that many premium SUVs don’t even feature and it’s fantastic for our weather. If you’ve got a date night planned, you can have your Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain remotely started with the key fob and this will turn the climate control on. Even if you’re parked under the sun, within a few minutes, the cabin will be cooled down and nobody has to break a sweat on the way your fine dining destination.
And once you’re inside this new D-Max, you’ll see that Isuzu has paid special attention to the materials and build quality. The leather on the seats and door cards are a lovely shade of brown and this is contrasted with off-white double stitching. Even the top of the dashboard is now covered in this same high-quality material with REAL stitching. Even the steering wheel has double stitching and an ultra-premium feel to it.
The driver is treated to an 8-way power-adjustable seat with lumbar support and other occupants are not neglected either. The class-leading 9″ infotainment display features both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for safe & easy music, navigation and more. The 8-speaker Live Surround Sound system is perfect to set the mood with some classic romantic tunes on the way to your fine dining location for date night.
On top of all this, you have a truck that looks the part of SUV and valets won’t be able to discriminate against you when you hand over the keys. Check out the video above and see exactly what we mean by this.
