The 2020 / 2021 Mazda BT-50 has arrived and is now sharing mechanical hardware with the new 2020 Isuzu D-Max. This includes a 3-litre 4JJ1 turbo-diesel engine with 140kW (188HP) and 450Nm.
If you think the BT-50 looks like some of the other Mazda range, it should as the same designer who penned the CX-9 and Mazda 2 is responsible for the look of the new ute.
More importantly, Mazda Australia was heavily involved with this project, as Australia is one of Mazda’s key global markets - meaning, the BT-50 has essentially been developed for us.

There’s no way that is your driving position.
Sure is! James
He even looks uncomfortable being so close to the steering. Fraud. You're a tall guy, nothing is wrong if the backsest knee room is a bit tight for u.
CarAdvice.com
Well, I believe you but I’m stunned.
You must drive with a 90 degree bend in your elbows and your knees up against the steering column.
Loooooool
I call bullshit. Good call James.
If it is then ya doin wrong. 🤥🤥
Looks like the D-Max is going to regret that one night it spent with a Mazda CX-5. This is a lesson to us all, practice family planning.
🤣
I’m dead 😂🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣
@A real bisexual petrol-head quit living in the past, have a laugh, this is gold
the mazmax looks like a good option for the girls that want a ute 😂 while the men buy the dmax
😂😂😂
Haven't watched your videos in a while, big ups for the weight loss 👏🏾
this is a long waited update, I like it, they better put that safety in every model.
Isuzu reliability, mazda finish and refinement should be a real good thing 🤔
It does give off more of a Almond latte vibe rather than an ice coffee and a cigarette vibe
Its the ute you’ll expect a safety inspection officer to arrive in.
I like your review style, count me in for more
This models looks better than its previous model! It's neat, clean, well-trimmed, tact, & well-footed on the ground! I'm simply drawn because of its simple, clean look! Impressive-lookin' ute!
Now the next model they need is a ute-based SUV.
Wow! I am impressed 👍😎
Feels like advertising dressed-up as "journalism".
That 3lt Isuzu engine has soooii much more potential than what they give you from the factory.
140kw 450nm will be bottom of the pack by next year, though I've seen them tuned stock and make 180kw 600nm ISH at the crank.
It's a great looking truck inside and out this BT50 and the new Dmax, just get a tune and happy days
*at the wheels
i've seen the 4JJ1 tuned to 800NM to the wheels in thailand and malaysia. also..they turn them into drag engines
My 5 yo mux donk has been Easily tricked up from new, install a quality chip and throttle tuner foremost. Never had any issues with the installed chip.
@@paulm2318
Your doing well to make 180wkw 600wnm without mods.
Or about half the power of similarly priced Holden and Falcon v8/xr6t utes from a decade ago.
It looks like a great Ute.
I got distracted by the tricycle in the background had to watch the review twice!
Haha, that'd be a Mazda K360, I think. They've got an amazing display of classic Mazdas at that... secluded warehouse... - Mike
Look at his face, he's a very serious man and takes his journalism very seriously. He's not some hack that advertising for isuzu... errr i mean... mazda
Haha. It is a very serious ute! James
nice video bro
It's pretty nice!
Mazada Front End and Interior with D-Max back end and internals
Are we getting a Supercab version in Australia?
Looks good😎
Keep at it
Looks awesome
no mention of gvm or gcm or did i miss that
Looks better than it's first look.
Curious to see what it'll look like with an aftermarket bullbar similar to the Xrox styles out there
Wow, so nice
You are a very good orator. Very rare these days.
Did they partner with Isuzuto to cut costs or is the Dmax that good? Is it really better than the Ranger?
This car was not made just for the Aussies, they are a big hit for South Africans and in Thailand and Philippines as well.
Edit: As well as parts of South America.
and parts of south America
@@lukas6839 Didn't know that, thanks for the heads up.
Pretty much a D-Max with a Mazda face.
is this only be available in Australia?!
Looks gorgeous
Absolutely love it
Will there be upgrades for the 2022 bt50
Probably won’t get this in the US, especially the diesel which would really make it a hit here, but to the rest of the world congratulations, love the Mazda styling!!!
You won't have that truck there in US. That isuzu engine is euro 4 compliant you have stricter emissions standards there.
Arman Pena always wondered, why diesel were in every thing in other countries, daughter taught in Argentina and had a lil Peugeot diesel while she was there and loved it, said she got about 50 mpg
@@poppyneese1811 You can buy the chevy colorado there thennew 2.8 4cycl is available there. It is a workhorse in Asia reliable but it uses timing belt serviceable by 120k kilometers.
Arman Pena euro 4?some isuzu engines are already euro 6,it depends on what country,in Aus already euro 6 standard,some countries are euro 4 and euro 2.
Is that available in the Asia Pacific mate?
Long time no see James.
The ONLY think I like about this thing is the interior...
the 4jj1 is a longevity upgrade. if the rest of the car will last 400,000km
D-Max is married to cx-8.
Re the transmission. The current Isuzu has the same auto transmission as the Toyota Hilux. Is the new BT-50 / Dmax auto a carryover from the superseded Dmax, therefore same as the HiLux?
The new D-Max has a 6-speed 'Rev-tronic' auto and a 6-speed manual option. Looking at the ratios from the Thai brochure, it matches those in the current Hilux - suggesting it remains the same. Note that it has a different rear differential.
Pls make a head to head of this, vs the new Hilux 🙏🏻
We will!
Yahoo! Will be on the lookout for it. Cheers from the Philippines! I was inspired to make a youtube channel of my own about cars partly by this channel.
The new hi lux 2021 pretty much looks better then this but not better looking then the new dmax
the cabin is tight.
The mazda grey always make a video looks like it's in black and white
Mate. your driving position is fine ? Of course there is so much leg room in the back
It's my driving position - from there my wrists can reach the top of the wheel for optimal control. Cheers James
Thats obviously his driving position, otherwise he would have slid the seat back before they restarted the recording.
@@Drivecomau maybe sit back a little and adjust the steering wheel to suit. Looks like your hand would touch the windscreen. You just looked uncomfortable mate 😂
He looked way to close to the steering wheel.
Whys everyone harping on about drum rear brakes?
Ever driven a ute? They work fine
And at least they don't wear as quick as the discs on my patrol, I'm forever working on em
Malaysia before BT-50: Why we don't get the new gen D-Max?! Why offer 1.9L Diesel update only?! WTF DRB-Hicom?!
Malaysia after BT-50: Yea who needs a new D-Max, this is fine.
Too bad the USA 🇺🇸 isn’t getting this !!!! I’m telling you Mazda got the best interior especially the CX5. MAZDA please bring it to the states.
I don’t suppose this will come to the U.K.! I like the d max but we only get a puny 1.9 litre diesel so for now I’ll have to keep my Hilux 3.0 D4d.
Look. Great
ohh lala! 😍😍😍
Memo to Mazda USA:
BRING THE MAZDA BT-50 TO THE USA!!!!!
You don’t want it
@@xkimopye why? America needs a Mazda Pickup Truck
This looks fantastic. The old design was WAY too outdated...
Could he possibly sit any closer to the steering wheel?
Did the infotainment system have Android Auto / Apple Carplay?
Drum brakes? What year is it?
Is this really the best CarAdvice can do?
That's my driving position Greg - I'm 6'3" and from that position my wrists are on top of the wheel. Yes, Android and Apple Support on the infotainment system. Most pickups still have drum brakes as the fronts do more work, drums are easier and cheaper to maintain and tend to be more efficient with a load in the back - you'll note that a more lifestyle oriented ute like a Raptor has discs.
And yes, that was the best we could do with a small window of time - we'll have the car for longer than 45mins when it arrives properly and will do a full assessment then. Cheers for watching!
Nice
Isuzu engine use by mazda it's durable.
Well if your going to ask our questions, how much will it be?
Mazda is good at reliability we have a mazda 2 and its a great car.
Mazda studied Isuzu to learn about reliability. That's why they left Ford and went to Isuzu. :)
Look like dmax interior and safety warnings
Let's see something new , no gas struts on a bonnet in 2021😂
Lucky it only costs $50 to do it yourself if lifting a 30kg bonnet is a effort.
Its an isuzu engine don't need to lift the hood.
Can’t believe I’m saying this but the back look very d-max than bt-50
The back light is led, right?
Yes - the tail light is an LED
Dmax looks a lot more modern though
Would have liked to see a bi turbocharged engine or V6 option (160-180kw /550-600 nm) along with 100-200mm wider chassis for greater cabin space and storage ,soft drop tailgate, disc brakes on the rear and forward facing camera.
nice halogen fog lights! the presenter did not even mention this, someone is getting money from Mazda and ignore the negatives. LOL.
How about a pair of LED fog lights under the Halogen fog lights? Now that's what you can't get of all others UTE.
www.lastcarreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/mazda-bt-50-2021-9-1024x576.jpg
Hate those stupid small indicators where the fog lights are, very easy to miss
Of course no u.s 😭 whyyyyy it looks so good....
That is an Old engine not new or not improved Ang drum breaks at the back.
I can't wait for the day when drum brakes disappear like the carburetor and distributors with points. Those drum brakes are a deal-breaker for me, unfortunately. If not for that, it would be a total winner. I hope the deal with Toyota allows Mazda to use the Hilux platform for the next generation BT50, and at that point Toyota will also switch to rear discs for that too.
It would make absolutely no difference what this ute looked like, arm chair experts and internet bad-asses would bag it out no matter what.
Wait a min... still drum brakes in the rear?
Same as Hilux.
Like all Thai built 4x4 utes [except the Ford Raptor].... a tax issue for theThai market
Edit: I'm wrong. Excise tax benefit is for the leaf spring. Drum brakes is just cost I guess....
A significant design flaw. Drums went out with the ark.
Don't buy a ute then...
I keep telling people that dual cabs are stuck in 2005. They never progress.
No surprise that it has a quality interior, that's been Madza's strength of late. Sometimes I wish exterior designers took a look at some of the random renderings online. Some of them surely looked better than this.
That wasn't your driving seat position. Way too tight
Still lacks clever design features that are only found on the larger US trucks, Ie folding rear seats, ram boxes and things like that. Looks good though except for the weak front end.
The seat bases fold up with storage beneath, if that's what you mean. Check out the Car Expert first look
Not sure how I feel about its styling, It seems like Mazda got the previous BT-50 and took the front end from a CX-8. It's definitely a strange look.
Pleaseeeeee come to the 🇺🇸!!!!
james borzoni u don’t want it, ur better of with a hilux trust me
Why?
They don’t have the Mazda infotainment system coz this is made by Isuzu...
Replacing a ranger body for smaller pickup body
Is my very delusional type of sleep paralysis
Mazda should really bring this to the US but I doubt that will happen due to the Chicken Tax on foreign built pickups, a real shame for sure
I like, I like, I like A lot.
Shame the engine has decreased in capacity, but definitely better looking and more lux. Shame I’am buying a new Ute this EOFY
The 4cyl 4jj1 is leaps and bounds better than the 5 pot piece of junk. might be minus 200cc, but the plus outweighs that 10 fold.
Ein Felder and yet ford and Mazda use the same junk engine, putting out more power. People are getting sick of 4cylinder Diesel engines, why can’t we have the 3.0L v6 twin turbo diesel. It would shit all over, any vehicle! Vw and merc! know what’s up, shame about the rest of their vehicles though!
why no skyactiv engine?
The engineering development was done in partnership with Isuzu - so it uses an Isuzu engine.
A BT-50 is a bloody tank. Anyone else notice?
Old one had 470nm this new one is a down grade 450nm what are they thinking
Lower outputs, lower capacity - but better reputation for reliability and fuel consumption. We’ll see what it’s like soon enough - the D-Max arrives in Australia in July.
The front is pretty like Mazda. But the rear taillights like the old Isuzu have to be updated 90% by Mazda fans saying The rear light looks like Isuzu Dua very old model. Need led rear lights
The look ? 'Not quite' is being nice and while I find Mazda cars look pretty good, this, much like the previous model, is a circular cluster-bonk of mismatched lines and overly soft melty angles. Being fair, I do like the interior. That said, I drive a 2018 XT auto and I really like it with the possible exception of the average at best fuel economy and a gear box that needs 20 minutes to have a moment before kicking down. A must have for the new model to see my money will be a rear diff lock as standard and a much better ride and handling arrangement than the current D Max. Thanks for the video..
I think D-Max and BT-50 should swap wheels.
i was thinking of waiting and getting the new BT50, reckon I will stick to the original Dmax, as it looks so much tougher
So with rear drums and small touch screen you'd think it's 2015.
More like 2005
9 inch screen? Which competitor has one bigger than that?
Will it come with a snorkle
Mazda have suggested that a range of accessories will be available at launch - if they don't offer a snorkel a third party supplier will
Is the drive train the same as the D-Max too?
Yes it's 95 percent Dmax
Drive line 100 percent Dmax
Frame 100 percent Dmax
Interior 100 percent Dmax
Only difference is the mazda front end, which looks pretty nice imho
In saying that, I'm sure Mazda had a lot of input with the interior lay out, it looks very much like a Mazda cabin.
Which isn't a bad thing, Mazda are good at making a cabin feel upmarket.
xr6t gtx yeah Mazda did the interior and Isuzu the drivetrain. Each company doing what they’re best known for to make a killer vehicle
very triton like
The only similarity to a Triton is the fact they are both dual cab utes.
So they're all about safety eh?......a RWD leaf sprung, drum braked rear end isn't going to go well on a slippery bitumen road if you give it a squirt now, is it???
It terms of design I like it more compared to previous model...i wish it has 10" center touchscreen, 360 cameras/sensor, cooling stuff on its compartment for drinks, remote control (start/off engines, power windows, aircon) since its slowly becoming a standard now a days like the Chinese brands geely coolray, cherry tiggo 8 ex and some features of it.... Chinese cars are fast becoming like high end European brands... I wish this one has it because it will be a huge plus factor. If it has that then it's competitors will really be in trouble. But in general I love the design of this pick up both the exterior and interior but it still lacks muscle looks like the Ford ranger raptor.
Any changes: Just a fat bt-50 post covid isolation.
Styling still needs to be worked on, front might needs a 30% change. Back needs 100% change.
How close are you to the steering wheel??? Crikey, looks really cramped up there like you've taken a car steering wheel into a phone box 😂
Dmax with lipstick on.
Why is it called the bt-50 what does it stand for
Basic Truck, design 50.
The jihadi will love this great platform for a rocket launcher or machine gun
Simon James Nar they always go for the Toyota Hilux Terrorist Addition..
@@brendanjarvis2306 any thing with a gun platform is a winner
We are only seeing the high spec interior here. While it's posh, it doesn't look as practical and durable for the rough stuff. I dislike leather anyway, and what about a more sustainable and Vegan interior option? That is cheaper to replace should it get scratched, flood damage, etc.
While everyone might prefer this interior compared to the outgoing model, we also need to realise that the interior in Mazda's other models will still be more appealing and better reviewed - think Mazda3 (and CX-30), and future models that should follow that design or even improve upon it, like the Mazda6 & CX-5, CX-50?
For one of the high specs, they should offer a variant with more comfortable rear multi-link suspension, in 2WD and 4WD. Edit: Also, rear disc brakes. These could have a lot of demand in some markets, and for those carrying family members regularly.
Great points! We're keen to see the 'regular' BT-50 trim and equipment when it arrives.
Geez if only it actually new what you were thinking and turned up or down the volume for you.
Can never actually say it's a great bit of kit no matter what the product is.
I'm sure this guy would do everything possible to pinpoint faults in a Rolls Royce.
It was a valid point. Plus there's no such thing as a perfect car..or perfect anything really.
