Currently, only Toyota and Isuzu are selling pick-up trucks in the Indian market. Toyota has the Hilux whereas the Isuzu has the D-Max V-Cross. Despite being in such a niche segment, the V-Cross does have quite a following in India. The manufacturer is now preparing to launch the 2024 iteration of the D-Max V-Cross. However, from the teasers, it seems like the manufacturer will be making only cosmetic changes for 2024.
The teasers reveal that there will be a new set of alloy wheels on the sides, chrome garnish for the fog lamps, running boards to make ingress and egress easier, garnishes for wheel arches, roof rails and a few other cosmetic garnishes on the outside. The cabin could also get a few subtle tweaks in the form of tan upholstery.
Powering the pick-up truck will be the same 1.9-litre turbocharged diesel engine that puts out 160 bhp of max power at 3,600 rpm and a peak torque output of 360 Nm at 2,000 -2,500 rpm. The gearbox on duty is a 6-speed manual unit as well as a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission. The automatic transmission is offered with a 4×4 powertrain as well as a 4×2 powertrain whereas the manual gearbox comes only with a 4×4 powertrain. Isuzu D-Max V-Cross’ 4×4 system also supports a Shift-on-the-fly system so the driver does not need to come to a halt to shift to 4×4.
