The Tough Nut — Isuzu MU-X 4x4 Review
The Isuzu MU-X is a refreshingly honest SUV in a world of soft-roaders. The 1.9L Ddi VGS Turbo diesel may only produce 163 PS, but the 360 Nm of torque delivered from 2,000 rpm gives it genuine grunt. The 6-speed automatic with Adaptive Grade Logic is smooth and intelligent, holding gears on inclines and using engine braking on descents.
Where the MU-X truly shines is off-road. The Terrain Command 4x4 system with shift-on-the-fly (up to 100 km/h) and low-range gearing makes it virtually unstoppable. The ladder frame chassis, penta-link rear suspension, and 230 mm ground clearance laugh at terrain that would strand soft-roaders. The underbody steel protection means you can tackle trails with confidence.
Inside, the 7-seater layout is genuinely usable. The one-touch fold and tumble second row makes third-row access easy, and the 1,830L max boot space is cavernous. The 9-inch touchscreen with wireless CarPlay and 8-speaker surround sound is adequate, though the interior plastics feel utilitarian.
At ₹41 lakh (4x2) to ₹44.86 lakh (4x4) on-road Delhi, the MU-X undercuts the Fortuner significantly while offering comparable capability. For those who need genuine off-road ability and 7-seat practicality without the Toyota tax, the MU-X is the thinking person's choice.
