Five years after its market introduction,
Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) hosted a special Grand Family Event to celebrate its best-selling SUV, the
Isuzu mu-X.
Held at the Filinvest Tent Alabang, IPC invited
some 300 Isuzu vehicles coming from its big car clubs--Team Isuzu Pilipinas, Team Isuzu Car Enthusiast, and mu-X Owners Philippines--in a whole day of fun and activities like the car club motor show, mini games, parts & accessories display, Isuzu iconic vehicle display, and a free concert at the end of the day.
"Introduced in 2014, the Isuzu mu-X became an instant hit to Filipino families nationwide, mainly due to its excellent performance, elegant styling and outstanding comfort--factors that are very important for a family vehicle," said
IPC President Hajime Koso.
During the event, IPC also introduced its latest addition to the mu-X line-up, a
limited 5th
year anniversary edition, the Isuzu mu-X Boondock.
The Isuzu mu-X Boondock is more than just aesthetics, its lift kit suspension and off-road tires are designed for off-roading performance.
The Boondock Edition is based on the
popular 3.0-liter mu-X LS-A and is equipped with upgraded features to
increase its ride height to 24 7mm and get that off-road look that the Boondock is known for.
Running on the
ever-reliable 4JJ1-TC Blue Power Engine, the mu-X Boondock can provide
175 hp maximum power and 380 Nm maximum torque, that is Euro 4-compliant.
Completing its off-road look, the new Isuzu mu-X Boondock comes with a
gray over-fender,
newly- designed front bumper,
steel step board with Boondock logo, and a
fully-functional roof rail with crossbar, perfect for family road trips.
"Isuzu mu-X Boondock Limited Edition is truly as special treat to the midsize SUV market. Coming from the success of the Boondock Series, this variant is a great addition to the mu-X line-up. Which has proven its outstanding performance, impressive design, comfort, safety and over-all reliability as family vehicle in the past five years," Koso added.
Available in
4x2 automatic transmission, the mu-X Boondock comes exclusively in
Havana Brown body color.
