Isuzu D-Max

Single and double cab, 1.9L and 3.0L, 4x2 and 4x4

The D-Max earned its Kenyan reputation the slow way — by not breaking. The current range runs the 1.9-litre RZ4E in single and double cab, and the 3.0-litre 4JJ3 at the top with 450 Nm, 3,500 kg braked towing and a full driver-assistance suite. Every variant clears 800 mm of water and carries a 76-litre tank.

  • How much can an Isuzu D-Max carry in Kenya?

    Payload runs from 970 kg on the 3.0-litre TFS40 double cab up to 1,265 kg on the 1.9-litre 4x2 single cab. The single cab carries most because it has the least body weight and the longest load box at 2,330 mm.

  • What is the difference between the 1.9L and 3.0L D-Max?

    The 1.9-litre RZ4E-MID produces 110 kW and 350 Nm; the 3.0-litre 4JJ3 produces 140 kW and 450 Nm. The 3.0-litre also raises braked towing from 2,100 kg to 3,500 kg and adds adaptive cruise control, autonomous braking, blind-spot monitoring and lane-departure warning.

  • How deep can a D-Max wade?

    Every D-Max variant carries 800 mm water depth protection as standard, with ground clearance of 235 mm on 4x4 models and 212 mm on the 4x2 high-ride single cab.
