Pioneering automotive specialists, Sathosa Motors PLC (SML), unveiled the rugged 2019 edition of its increasingly popular Isuzu D Max RT66 Double Cab at the Colombo Motor Show amidst the eager anticipation of Sri Lanka’s most enthusiastic gear-heads.
The leading edge in a new generation of Isuzu double-cabs, the 2019 D Max’s powerful 4JJ1 Common Rail Isuzu 3 litre Diesel Engine and 6-speed manual transmission delivers trailblazing power and reliable performance, while the double-cab’s revamped design and optimised features ensure complete comfort, safety and style.
“The Isuzu D Max is the single most popular double-cab in the South East Asian region, and this popularity is really due to the many decades of development that has gone into honing these vehicles for road and weather conditions common to the region. With the 2019 edition, there has been an even greater emphasis on this design philosophy, which is sure to catch the eye of many Sri Lankans,” SML Director/Chief Operating Officer Eshan Cooray said.
Built to exacting Euro IV standards, the all new Isuzu D Max also features an improved wheel base to provide more stability when cornering and navigating inclines all while delivering the largest cabin space in the double cab category, ensuring passenger comfort, no matter how extreme the terrain.
“The Isuzu D Max has high-performance embedded into its DNA, and with the new edition, this proud tradition has only been enhanced, however there has also been a concerted effort to make sure that it is not just functional, but also fun.
“From its striking new factory-fitted chrome exterior package and a host of other accessory tweaks like side steps to a roaring 8-speaker entertainment system, touch-screen media player to its reverse camera, everything about the new Isuzu D Max is steered towards enhancing driver and passenger experiences,” SML General Manager Marketing Dirk Joshua said.
