Yes, it has a lot more features, but I know a lot of people in Australia unwilling to pay out 65k plus - for any car - during these uncertain times. Am sure it will still be a hit, but add bull bar, AT tyres, cargo and racks and you are getting close to 80k.If you get 30k for your old MUX, still 50k to change over. I love the MUX. One of my top 5 fav cars, but not at 65k. While long in the tooth, you can pick up a 2019 plated Triton (new) with mini bull bar and towbar for 40k.
Great review, and it is a vehicle for purpose that suits my needs now. I’ve purchased a 2x4 LS-U as best value. Covid times mean just 165k’s around Albury at time of writing but hoping vaccine passports allow towing into SA some time before too much longer. I did all the 4WD driving I needed to as a young man who spent 13 years in PNG. 3.5 tonne towing in comfort is what I want, with a vehicle that’s good in and around town as well. The MU-X appears competent and capable for those needs, is very well built and finished and provides a comfortable ride in well designed seats. The safety additions work better than those I had in my preceding Tiguan R Line.
The fuel tank holds 80 litres. Without tow weight it has a range of 1,000km. It can tow 3.5 tonnes. Less with luggage and other cargo weight loaded. Maybe 600 km range loaded but I don’t know yet.
@@gregturner_awod wow very good . I was lucky to test the D max 2.5 for days , the fuel tank managed to reach 860 kilo in city ! I was able to make it up to 900 kilo but was concerned not to find a gas station with no diesel option . The diesel cost 0.14 cent USD per litter in KSA which is very cheap . For that reason , many saudis thinking to switch to Diesel engine car because gasoline cost is high comparing to pervious years
@@fasrr22 I can understand that, fuel costs rising everywhere. Here in regional Australia distances can be very great if you travel inland and fuel range is important. At speed the Diesel engine runs at low rpm, very unstressed.
Excellent non biased review. I have a Ford Everest and will be looking at the MU-X. I'd like to see a side by side comparison. I'm liking the 3l over a 2l. I think it'll last longer. Particularly want to know which one performs more comfortably on rough pot holed roads.
I test drove the new MU-X, and both the 3.2 and 2.0 ltr Everests. I really loved how the MU-X drove, but, the engine noise of the MU-X saw me settle for an Everest. Isuzu needs to do some refinement to the engine to match the refinement and quietness of the modern diesel offerings.
Im just here to read all the comments about how expensive these are. Has anyone priced a new 7 seater 4x4 lately, seriously people are hung up on them being the basic 4x4 they introduced 8yrs ago, they have changed, we are in the market for a new 4x4 7 seater and these are $12k cheaper than a gxl Prado which is still behind in features and still much cheaper than the others at $63k drive away at the moment.
Much more improved over last model but I just can't see 60K in it. The new Everest with a V6 will leave it for dead, that's if Ford don't bring it out for 80K.
It will leave in the dust yeah... till Fords trademark shit engines break and this Isuzu still keeps on chugging right past without any issues. I can confirm this as a mechanic in Africa.
Had a Jeep grand Cherokee 8 sp witch i loved till i blew the notor at 175000 ks I have since bought a MUX a had to hook up a 2.7 ton caravan straight from showroom and tow from Balina to Victoria through the hills I am amazed the power and economy over 1800ks averaged 16.5 litres per 100 ks lookig forward to some 4wd in the future
Hi Tom, it’s Cohen here just wondering if you have test driven the Jimny yet, if you can’t that’s fine I have heard long list for them. Thank you kind regards Cohen
With all the extras i think the price is fine. At the moment (with the discount) the top of the range MUX is $64k, The Ford Everest Trend is $70k+ and the Ford Everest Titanium is $80k+. My main complaint is having heated only seats and not cooled. Apart from missing a V6 it is a great wagon.
Fantastic review as usual, I have a question, I am very close to buy a Mitsubishi Pajero sport, Do you think is worth it to spend more money to get the Isuzu MUX LST instead Pajero Sport exceed? Thanks.
Go for the Pajero Sport. May look a bit unattractive from certain angles and definitely needs a redo of the interior, but cannot beat it for value for money.
Good review Tom but that price hike is ridiculous! Not that I’m looking for a SUV, but my sister is & has an older Prado. I told her to wait for this to come out, but after seeing the price, I said she should look towards the Pajero! In relation to tow capacity, being so called 3,500kg. You then have to deduct payload, as in passengers, luggage & the like from that I believe? This is a lot of would be towers get into trouble pulling far too much weight!
Exactly right, Andrew, and it’s a point I need to make more clearly in these videos when discussing towing. If you hitch up 3500kg to the new MU-X, your maximum payload is 245kg. Couple of passengers and a couple of bags and then you’re overloaded. Gross combination mass is rated at 5900kg and the vehicle itself weighs 2155kg.
I like Isuzu, the company seems like Toyota was a long time ago when reliability came first which is why they only made small steps in performance with each new model.
What about a safety issue,if the GVM is only 2800kgs and you can tow 3500kgs, what happened to the old saying NEVER have your cart heavier than your HORSE !!.
Have you heard about the major AC problem in Thailand where the back AC blower and tubes would condensation up and would drop water from the ceiling? Isuzu never came out and make a proper statement about it but let the dealers remedy it by taking out the bottom tube and blower cover but without putting on a cover on the blower.

How do they expect you to tow 3500kg, kerb weight 2175kg +70kg to fill the tank, +tow bar 30kg, two people 150kg, +ball weight 350kg comes to 2745kg, the GVM is 2800kg. This leaves a huge 55kg for your phone and other trinkets. Now look at the GCM of 5900kg, -3500kg leaves 2400kg as the GVM, well you need fuel 70kg, and a driver +75kgand the tow bar +30 with tow ball weight 350kg. Put simply the tow increase is simply and unrealistic advertising stunt as the bare minimum has the GVM at 2650KG.
Kerb weight includes full fluids which is a full tank of fuel amongst everything else Tare weight only includes 10 litres which might be what you're thinking of.
@@JohnSmith-nz4bn I got the figures straight from the Isuzu web page with all weights. Even so it is still totally unrealistic, if we take away 70kg for fuel and one passenger we still hit 2600kg which is 200kg over the GCM.
Took a look at this at the dealers a couple of days ago. Prado owner there just to give the staff a hard time saying it was too expensive and too basic! Bizarre pastime he has. I’ll be taking a test drive a week on Saturday and certainly not paying a Toyota tax for their very basic competitor. How much is the top of the range Prado and does it have more niceties than the new MUX? $63990 OTR for the top of the range 4x4. If it drives well I’ll have my deposit down.
When in 5 seat mode, is the back the same as a Dmax truck bed? I'm having a hard time deciding. I need to carry stuff around away from rain or I can go with Dmax and tarp it up but it's a pain.
When you take into consideration a wider width because there's no wheel arches like you would get with a dmax tub, the rear luggage section is a big plus in the mux.
@ric ricksen there's a good chance, yes but I would say it depends on the height of the dmax canopy. Most decent ute reviews provide tub measurements and you could probably work out a rough volume for a canopy, but you'd need to find a dealer or someone who owns an mux and ask for the measurements to compare both vehicle sizes. I would say they'd be pretty similar, but as before, not needing to worry about wheel arches means you'd have more width directly behind the first row of passenger seats in the mux than right at the back of a dmax tub.
Great review. Would love to see a high level comparison with competitors. Not a detailed item by item review eg. How many cupholders you get in an Everest vs Fortuner , but something that says if you're doing heavy towing vehicle A is better, if you're looking for comfortable all rounder go for vehicle B and if you want to do more off-road tracks then vehicle C may be the better choice. Would also like to know the dealer network and customer support reputation of izuzu. E.g. I heard Mitsubishi, Nissan and Renault are merging which may impact triton, Navara, Pajero Sports in coming years.

@@chasingcars thanks Tom, so are you saying that this aggressiveness could be fixed relatively easily for buyers via a future software update (possibly during servicing)?
Still needs more grunt. 70 kW/t is still pretty lame. Why are all the offerings in this class underpowered? Need to flog the guts out of it to get anywhere and the fuel economy plummets. Don't understand the 4x2 option at all. Just get a proper car if 4x4 isn't a requirement. Good review.
some people buy the 4x2 option for ground clearance. The engine power can be tuned up with a chip, the reason why it is underpowered in this configuration is durability and emission concern. Realistically this engine can output 550 nm without too much problem, and given the power output is torque x rpm, then the power output will also increase.
Mate, you whinge and whine and post the same crap on every youtube video. If you've got a problem with it, man up and spend the cash on an offering from America.
