Isuzu Motors India today announced the opening of bookings for its D-Max V-Cross pick-up with deliveries to commence from July 2016 onwards.

The D-Max V-Cross double cab, which was first revealed at the Auto Expo 2016 in February, is priced at Rs 12.49 lakh (ex-showroom Chennai). It is manufactured at the recently inaugurated Isuzu Motors India’s new state-of-the-art manufacturing plant at Sri City, Andhra Pradesh.

Based on the same underpinnings as Chevrolet’s Trailblazer, the D-Max’s interiors are also in line with the SUV's. It shares the dashboard with the Trailblazer with the exception of the instrument cluster and Chevrolet’s MyLink infotainment system. This new interior makes the Isuzu D-Max look more upmarket than the company's even more premium MU-7. The four-door D-Max is powered by a 2.5-litre, 130bhp, BS IV diesel motor paired with a five-speed automatic gearbox, and gets all-wheel drive. The chassis frame is based on iGRIP technology (Isuzu Gravity Response Intelligent Platform) to ensure better stability.

Further, Isuzu Motors also announced the opening of the bookings for the new-generation D-Max Regular Cab pickup. This regular cab variant is a goods carrier and is registered as a commercial vehicle.
