In developing the third generation D-MAX, Isuzu engineers devoted 6 years of research and 4-million kilometers of testing to build a vehicle that would not only live up to, but transcend, its respected lineage. The result is an All-New D-MAX that adds smart innovations and intelligent features to its rugged toughness and exceptional performance, making it truly worthy of its tag line “Into New Heights.”
The flagship D-MAX LS-E 4x4 AT variant, in particular, is packed with automotive technology that ensures a more enjoyable, more comfortable, and safer ride. And, since like us, many motorists may not be familiar with the terminologies and concepts behind these new features, we’ve compiled the D-MAX Tech Lexicon as a quick reference.

HONOR X8B
HONOR’s Xa-series smartphones impressed me last year. HONOR’s entry to mid-range lineup was reasonably priced and each model had its niche special feature.
