Isuzu D-Max on new single-tank fuel efficiency challenge


BALAKONG: The Isuzu D-Max pick-up truck lineup, known for its legendary fuel-efficiency, will embark on new challenge to complete a one-tank journey with a loop around the Peninsula Malaysia.

The "D-Max One-Tank. One Nation" challenge will see the brand-new D-Max 2.2-litre turbo diesel pick-up truck embark on a six-day journey around the country beginning today, starting from the Isuzu 3S Centre in Balakong, Selangor.

The pick-up truck will complete its journey back in Kuala Lumpur using just its one tank of diesel after visiting Isuzu dealerships in Negeri Sembilan, Johor, Pahang, Kelantan, Kedah and Perak.

Isuzu Malaysia chief operating officer Kenichi Kudo said the company believed that new Isuzu D-Max equipped with the 'best engine ever' 2.2-litre powerplant has the ideal qualities to engage in such a daunting challenge.

"Its amazing power delivery where 56% of the vehicle’s maximum torque is already available from as low as 1,000rpm, coupled to a new 8-speed automatic gearbox will allow the vehicle to efficiently accelerate to speed yet cruise comfortably along the highways," said Kudo.

The journey will be documented with journey updates by brand ambassador Baki Zainal who will be on hand at key dealerships where the D-Max will arrive for pit stops along the route.

D-Max fans will be able to interact with Baki and the crew and enjoy special giveaways and refreshments when the D-Max visits.

Fans around the country can further engage in the journey by guessing the total mileage the D-Max would have covered by the time it returns to Kuala Lumpur on Saturday.

The top prize of a RM5,000 grocery shopping voucher awaits the one who guesses closest to the final mileage with lots of secondary prizes to be won.
