Maximum respect for pick-up

ISUZU D-MAX CROWNED BEST VALUE PICK-UP OF THE YEAR FOR 2022

The Isuzu D-Max has been named the Best Value Pick-up of the Year by renowned specialist publication 4×4 Magazine. Having collected the Pick-up of the Year accolade in 2021, the Isuzu D-Max has continued this winning trend by being awarded the Best Value title for 2022. 

The All-New Isuzu D-Max, which launched earlier this year, combines smart, bold, and aggressive styling, and improved off-road performance with class-leading safety technology. Not only does it deliver the capability and durability you would expect from an Isuzu pick-up truck, but this tough workhorse has also now added superior levels of comfort, refinement, and next-generation technology.

Appealing to a wide variety of drivers, from fleet operators to families, the Isuzu D-Max model range is structured into three segments: Business, All-Purpose and Adventure, resulting in an Isuzu D-Max to suit every customer’s requirement. 

Alan Kidd, Editor at 4×4 Magazine said “The Isuzu D-Max won Pick-up of the Year last year after we first drove it, so we’ve not been at all surprised by the enormous demand Isuzu has encountered since sales began. And one of the reasons why people are queueing up to buy them is that Isuzu has priced them very smartly indeed.”

He continued, “Isuzu has come to market with a range of models which undercut their direct rivals – so for less money, you get one of the newest and best trucks on the market, with famous reliability, rock-solid residuals and a monster of a warranty. No wonder people are putting their faith in the Isuzu D-Max.”

Alan Able, Brand Director, Isuzu UK said “Collecting the award for Best Value Pick-up of the Year is a great way to end 2021. With the launch of the All-New Isuzu D-Max earlier in the spring and the expansion of the dealer network throughout the year, this has been a very exciting and rewarding time for Isuzu UK.” 

The Best Value Pick-up of the Year is available from £21,009 for Single Cab Utility models, with Extended Cab Utility priced from £23,759 and Double Cab versions available from £24,509* CVOTR
