The D-Max EV gets a full-time 4WD system, featuring newly developed e-axles in the front and rear.
Isuzu has unveiled the D-Max EV pick-up truck at the 2025 Commercial Vehicle Show in the UK.
A prototype of the D-Max EV was first shown last year at the Bangkok Motor Show. The D-Max EV comes with a dual-motor setup. It gets a 66.9 kWh battery pack that develops 188 BHP 325 Nm of torque. Isuzu claims a 263 km (WLTP) range in a single charge. With an 11 kW AC charger, the pickup can charge from 0 to 100 percent in 10 hours. With a 50 kW DC fast charger, it can go from 20 to 80 percent charge in one hour. It gets multi-level regenerative braking and an Eco mode.
The D-Max EV gets a full-time 4WD system, featuring newly developed e-axles in the front and rear. This system provides linear acceleration typical of EVs while minimizing noise and vibration. In addition to permanent 4×4, the D-Max EV has a dedicated Rough Terrain Mode for “extreme off-road capability.”
The D-Max EV features an all-new De-Dion rear suspension, replacing the traditional leaf spring setup, which delivers improved handling. With various other improvements within the zero-emissions model, drivers and passengers can enjoy up to a 10% reduction in cabin noise and vibration level under full acceleration.
Dimensions wise, the D-Max EV measures 5,280 mm in length, 1,810 mm in height and 1,870 mm in width. It has a wheelbase of 3,125 mm and weighs 2,350 kg. It has a maximum payload capacity of 1,010 kg and a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 kg. It has a ground clearance of 210 mm and 600 mm of water wading capacity. It has approach and departure angles of 30.5deg and 24.2deg.
In terms of features, the D-Max EV gets a touchscreen infotainment system, digital instrument cluster, dual-zone climate control, front and rear parking sensors and heated front seats.
The D-Max EV will be available in two premium trim levels, both in Extended Cab and Double Cab configurations. These trims are the electric equivalents of the diesel-powered D-Max DL40 and V-Cross models.
Production of the left-hand drive model for Europe has commenced, and it will be shipped to major European markets in the third quarter of 2025. Production of the D-MAX EV right-hand drive model is scheduled to begin at the end of this year, with sales expected to start in 2026 in the UK and will be rolled out to other countries and areas based on market needs.
