fuel consumption

published

My 2015 Isuzu mux has done 45000 k's and has never missed a beat. I am getting 800 k's to a tank but this did not happen until I reached 40,000 K's and I do not think it is fully run in yet. Best vehicle I have owned. Costs much less to run than the Toyota GXL I owned and has no interior noises what so ever.

Love love love this car!

published

We purchased our MUX in 2015 and it has been the best decision we have made for a vehicle purchase ever. We will be buying another! Its roomy with so many features. We bought the top of the line with gps and dvd player. The dvd player has been a god send with the kids. Gps has been excellent also. There is nothing I do not like about his vehicle. The metallic silver is easy to clean and gorgeous to look at. A+++++

Serious cracking in engine bay

published

Serious cracking has developed in the inner guard area, near the compliance plate, near the battery tray, radiator support panel and the outer guards mounts have started breaking. At 2 years old and 170k the car wouldn't pass a roadworthy. I was personally looking at purchasing one for my wife but would never entertain the thought after seeing the seriousness of the cracks. Google search Isuzu cracks.... the car is a company car and driven by the one driver from new who intended to purchase it at end of lease. Never had an issue with his previous work cars. car is totally standard with an oem factory bull bar fitted and never crashed. Isuzu to date don't want to know about it.

Underrated and reliable

published

Overall I'm really impressed with its fuel economy (averaging 8.2L/100km) and low servicing costs. Reliable Isuzu engine and 55,000km later it hasn't missed a beat. One of the most underrated 4WDs out there. I have slowly added extras and the aftermarket accessories available are growing. Well done Isuzu, it's a winner.

Best 4x4 on the market

published

After test driving all the 4x4 on the market the isuzu is value for money and almost faultless. The suspension is a little soft, so an upgrade is recommended for off road use. Towing 2.7 tonne is done with ease and excellent fuel economy. The over priced Toyota Prado is in no comparison with the isuzu. Ford Everest is also rated well but you might need an extra 20k with a few extras.

Couldn't be happier

published

So far everything has been as expected or better. We have been slowly adding our extras to accommodate for grey nomad life. Most people who see our vehicle are suitably impressed. We have also managed to persuade others to either test drive or buy. Fuel economy is very good, comfort also fine. Happy,

Still in love after 12 months

published

Doing nearly 1,000 kms a week I wanted an economical vehicle and I got it - 8.1l/100kms. This is the first new car I've bought that I haven't thought about my next upgrade after 12 months - still totally in love! Leather where it counts seats, flip down DVD screen, more cup holders than a movie theatre, 7 seats (with the rear two folded down I can fit my kayak inside!), great touch screen stereo, lots of storage compartments, reverse camera and sensors, the list goes on. I spent a lot of time researching before purchasing this vehicle and fuel economy and reliability were my top of this list -70,000kms later and it hasn't skipped a beat!

Purchased in August 2021 at Isuzu Dealers.

Perfect car for on and off the road

published

Great fuel economy for touring and very reliable Isuzu engine. Seem to go anywhere the ground clearance let's them including driving in heavy sand.Very powerful engine compared to a hilux 2017 best choice I've made.Great amount of space inside for kids or storage and around town has a much better turning circle than anything else.

Best vehicle I've owned to date

published

This is by far the best vehicle I've owned to date, it's easy to drive, park and generally maneuver.
It comes with EVERYTHING without the ridiculous price tags.
We have found it has all round comfort, plenty of leg room, air vents throughout the back as well, DVD player for the kiddies.

Most comfortable vehicle i have driven

published

I own a MU-X LSU 4x2 and love it. I bought the 2 wheel drive as I have no intention of going bush bashing, but do intend to tow a van. I cover a lot of K's, my previous car had 505,000 K's on the clock when traded.
I purchased the mux in October 2016 new and have been to Goulburn and Geelong since then and found that I can step out of the car feeling great after 8 hrs behind the wheel.
Very easy car to drive and very economical.

Love my car

published

We have the top of the range MUX 7 seater wagon 4wd. We dealt with Traralgon Isuzu. They were fantastic.
Love the way my MUX handles and drives. What I think it is
Missing is USB ports in the back to charge iPads etc and the paint work is so easily scratched which we have spoken to Isuzu about and this is a common problem. We even had paint protection applied. These are the only things that let it down.
It is reliable, good on fuel, and a dream to drive and park. What makes it good also is that there are very few blind spots. As a second car if we had the money we would get a DMAX ute for hubby.

Loving my MUX

published

We have had the Isuzu for just under 12 months and i have found it to be an amazing 4wd. It tows our 2.6 tonne caravan with no problems, it very good on juice and the in roof DVD is amazing for the kids. Only a few miner complaints - Not a lot of storage for the driver, the front windows don't come tinted and you have to push the screen to remove the on board navigation warning. Would defiantly purchase again.

Absolutely no regrets

published

We have had the MU-X for nearly 10 months and love it. It doesn't drive as nicely as the Cx5 it replaced, but it is a totally different vehicle. Engine is very torquey, does everything with no effort. We haven't had it long enough to comment on long term reliability, but given Isuzu's history we have complete faith in it.
Inside is fine, have heard people say it isn't as nice as some cars and that it is like a utility inside, which it is, don't care still love it. I think in the 4wd wagon category it is the best value for money and the most sensible buy.

I'm very confident to praise this Vehicle

published

Very good to drive. The engine is very torquey, great for me as I tow a Caravan 20' 6". A bit of engine noise, but I sound proofed under bonnet & good now, interior is practical, good leg room, comfortable driving position, very good fuel economy, 14.7 Lts/100Kms towing 2.5 Tonne of Caravan. Stop Press!! After writing this review it has come to my attention that Isuzu will not sanction the use of a weight distribution hitch such as Hayman Reese if using with their factory Towbar. Buyers beware!!!
