ROAD TEST: ISUZU D-MAX X-TERRAIN Ŷ ALL GROWN UP: Isuzu’s D-Max has really come of age.
By CHRIS RILEY THE X-Terrain is the hero of the Isuzu DMax utility range. Bigger, bolder and ballsier, it’s right up there with the best of Aussie 4x4 utes. New D-Max is a big step forward from the previous model, more refined, better equipped and with an upmarket feel. It’s now one of the safest 4x4 utes on the road too, with a five-star crash rating and full array of driver assistance systems. STYLING D-Max is priced from $29,990 for the no frills, tradesman special. But X-Terrain with all the bells and whistles will set you back more than twice that figure, at $63,900 plus onroads. That’s a hefty increase on the launch price of the ute which was $58,990 driveaway back in August 2020. INTERIOR The X-Terrain seats five with storage under the flip up rear seats and Isofix and top-tether points for both outboard seats in the back. Rear legroom is not, however, what we’d call generous and it would be a crush with three adults back there. Inside you’ll find leather and two-zone climate air, with rear air vents, tilt and reach adjust steering wheel, push-button start and walk away auto locking. There’s an 8-way power adjust driver’s seat, power driver lumbar adjustment, power windows with one-touch up/down driver’s window, adaptive cruise control, auto lights and wipers, auto high beam, storage space under rear flip up seats, and a power outlet in the lower instrument panel.
ENGINES / TRANSMISSIONS Isuzu X-Terrain gets a tried and true 3.0-litre diesel, with a six-speed “Rev-Tronic” auto transmission that has manual sequential mode. The upgraded 3.0-litre turbo diesel puts out 140kW of power at 3600rpm and 450Nm of torque from 1600 to 2600 rpm -- 10kW and 20Nm more than before. The torque band is five times wider and more usable than its predecessor -- with 400Nm on tap from 1400 through to 3250 rpm. The engine features new internals, highpressure direct injection and a more efficient electronically controlled Variable Geometry System (VGS) Turbocharger. The X-Terrain is available only with a 6-speed auto, with part-time four-wheel drive and high and low range gearing. DRIVING With less noise and vibration, it has a smooth turbine-like feel doesn’t sound as truck-like as before, making it more family friendly. It’s long at more than 5.3 metres and has a turning circle of 12.5 metres, which can make it a handful in car parks. But at least the reverse camera in this model acquires dynamic, coloured guidelines which gives what you are seeing some perspective. Having said that, the camera seems to paint a very different picture to the exterior mirrors which suggest obstacles are much closer. Which one do you trust? I guess experience will provide the answer to that one. The X-Terrain sits on 18-inch alloy wheels, with 265/60 series rubber and has 240mm of ground clearance, with steel underbody pro-
tection, an electronic rear diff lock and wading depth of 800mm. With a rotary selector switch, high range four-wheel drive can be engaged on the fly up to 100km/h, but low range requires a stop and change to neutral. The diff lock is only available in low-range and limited to 28km/h, but that gives plenty of leeway. It’s fitted with gas shocks and softer, rear leaf springs, but ride quality is still on the firm side, and unexpected potholes and speed humps can jostle occupants. Steering is light at low speeds but not as precise as a car at speed and you could find yourself reeling it in if you get to a corner and haven’t been paying attention. Like most utes it also has rear drum brakes. This model can carry a 970kg payload, with a tub that measures 1570 x 1530mm and 490mm deep, with an overhead sports bar and lockable roller-style tonneau cover. The cover goes with the territory but compromises the usable space and can be tricky to lock and unlock until you know the trick. A tether strap is provided to retrieve the cover, but if you toss it in, you’ll need to climb in and retrieve the strap before you can close the thing. The tub itself is fitted with a protective liner, but lacks a 12-volt outlet and comes with only two tie-down points. X-Terrain can also tow a 3500kg braked load, with a maximum tow ball rating of 350kg and comes with trailer sway control. The large 9.0-inch touchscreen looks impressive, underlined by a line of control switches and in this model, you get to use the whole of the architecture -- but a physical

volume control would be nice. With a 76-litre fuel tank, fuel consumption is a claimed 8.0L/100km. We were getting a steady 9.0L/100km. D-Max is covered by a 6-year/150,000km warranty, with 7-year roadside assistance and 7-year capped price servicing. SUMMING UP But X-Terrain is big and boofy with plenty of black bits and a tub that’s ready for action. New D-Max is a big step forward from the previous model, with a more refined drivetrain, an upmarket feel and longer equipment list. It’s always been a solid, if unremarkable choice, but a no brainer in terms of getting a name brand at a bargain price. With this release, however, the gap has narrowed considerably -- so you need to do your homework.

A motorsport-derived N automatic is standard, with a six-speed manual offered as a no-cost option. There are also 19-inch alloys and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres. The N brake package has a new response-enhancing Brake Prefill function. The 10.25-inch N Supervision instrument cluster and 10.25-inch satellite navigation is standard. This has N features and technologies, including Track Maps. It’s offered in seven body colours. Solid Paint: Polar White and Performance Blue. Metallic Paint: Cyber Grey, Fluid Metal and Intense Blue Mica Paint: Phantom Black and Fiery Red An extensive SmartSense advanced active safety suite includes Forward Collision-avoidance Assist, Blind-spot Collision-avoidance Assist - Rear, Rear Crosstraffic Collision-avoidance Assist and Lane Following Assist. “We’re delighted to introduce i30 Sedan N as the fitting finale for Hyundai’s new model offensive over the past 18 months,” Hyundai Motor Company Australia Chief Executive Officer, Jun Heo said. “i30 Sedan N delivers renowned Hyundai N fun-to-drive and racetrack capability in a striking everyday sports sedan, packed with convenience, safety and driver-focused high-performance technologies,” he said.
