It&#8217;s certainly a bold move when manufacturers such as Volkswagen are going in the opposite direction and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/archives\/9455\">using larger-bore V6 engines<\/a> to attract buyers and provide\u00a0effortless torque.<\/p>\n<p>Isuzu says that the new engine will produce 164 PS and 360Nm of torque. The new model will retain the 1 tonne payload and 3.5 tonne towing capacity of the existing D-Max. It will also meet Euro 6 standards without the\u00a0need for AdBlue.<\/p>\n<p>As with previous D-Max models, the Shift-On-The-Fly 4&#215;4 will be available, allowing drivers to switch in and out of four wheel drive while on the move.<\/p>\n<p>The new D-Max will come with a class-leading five-year \/ 125,000-mile warranty and will require 12,000-mile \/ 24-month servicing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isuzu has opened the order books for the new generation Isuzu D-Max, which will arrive in the UK in spring 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9640,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[8],"tags":[2011,1680,1901],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9639"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9639"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9639\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9642,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9639\/revisions\/9642"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9640"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vanrental.co.uk\/vanblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
