Isuzu D-Max Yukon sends pick-up range posh

Isuzu is now offering its Isuzu D-Max pick-up extended cab in top-of-the-range Yukon specification. The Isuzu D-Max Yukon is priced from £19,249 (excluding VAT) and combines the flexibility of a pick-up with a generous haul of equipment that extends its appeal beyond that of a working vehicle. The Yukon goes on sale in October.

Equipment includes cruise control, air conditioning, 17-inch alloy wheels, chrome grille, chrome rear bumper, heavy-duty side steps, a surround-sound stereo, plus powerful projector headlamps and bright LED rear lights.

The extended cab features two full-sized front seats behind which is a large load area incorporating a fold-down rear bench for occasional use.

The pick-up is powered by a 161bhp 2.5-litre diesel engine and has four-wheel drive as standard. The combination allows the Yukon to tow a maximum of 3,500kg, while combined cycle fuel economy of 38.7mpg helps keep costs manageable. 

Throw in a five-year/125,000-mile warranty, 12,000-mile/24-month service intervals, plus three-years breakdown cover, and you have a pick-up package with a lot going for it.

William Brown, GM at Isuzu UK, said: “Since its launch in June 2012, the D-Max has stood for rugged build quality and outstanding on and off-road performance. The new Yukon extended cab further enhances its appeal. We hope this latest addition to what is already one of the most comprehensive line-ups in the sector will allow us to better meet the varied needs of pick-up users.”
