Specs
Powering the Isuzu MU-7 is a 3.0 litre diesel engine which 161 bhp of peak power and 333 Nm of peak torque. This engine is mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission. The MU-7 does not get a four wheel drive variant so power is supplied only to the rear wheels. The manual version returns an ARAI certified mileage of 12.08 kpl which means the mileage figures for the automatic variant could be slightly less than that.

- A two-tone dashboard finished in black and beige with wood inserts.
- New three-spoke steering wheel with audio controls.
- Touchscreen infotainment system with built-in GPS
- The touchscreen display also doubles up as the screen for the reverse parking camera.
