As a former winner of our 4WD Station Wagon of The Year title Isuzu’s MU-X seven-seater remains highly rated by NZ4WD magazine staffers.
Sure it ended up ranked third out of three in our Annual and SUV Buyer’s Guide report. But taken strictly on its own merits – five-star ANCAP-rating, seven (leather) seats and an excellent engine and transmission package – it makes a lot of sense.
What to do to stimulate buyer interest?
Here, importer Isuzu New Zealand has come up with a funky ‘dress-up’ package which gives the standard vehicle an altogether tougher and more contemporary edge.
Key to the look is a set of 20 inch dia. Fuel Nutz alloy wheels with a set of chunky A/T tyres, a polished genuine factory Bullbar and genuine factory Snorkel.
RRP ex dealer for the package as seen here is $78,461 and company marketing manager Gareth Lowndes says that the demo unit has done a good job raising the profile of the MU-X.
