I Isuzu Truck Series in 2007

Isuzu is still in the collection truck business, selling its version of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon compact pickup. Version Isuzu pickup is a Nice, although the range of models is limited.

At first glance, the Isuzu i-series is often perceived, not properly too hot, over General Motors product. While the i-series is more or less identical to the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, the fact is that Isuzu had a hand in developing truck. The deal was that Chevy and GMC have climbed for the first time in truck sales in North America, while Isuzu would sell a slightly different version of a diesel engine called D-MAX in the Asia-Pacific, which have been very marketable.

A began selling the Isuzu i280 and i350 in the U.S. In 2006, when sales were a fraction of the Colorado and Canyon. Part of the problem was the lack choice. The i-series came in two versions: The four-cylinder manual transmission extended cab 4x2 and 4x4 double cab five cylinder i280 i350 machine. Chevrolet and GMC continued to sell their versions of a wide variety of truck cabins, bed, engine, transmission and transmission combinations.
This year Things have improved slightly. The four-cylinder Isuzu now offers an automatic transmission, while the five-cylinder model comes to cabin Extended and crew and a 4x2 transmission, while the 4x4 is only available as a cabin crew. Both trucks also get more powerful engines and new names: i370 and i290, which reflects its 2.9 and 3.7 liters.

There is no carpet and an AM / FM in seat Driver, if conditioning and 4-wheel antilock brakes are standard parts. The accessories truck, which contain cloth seats, carpets, rear jump seats, CD/MP3 player, carpeting, tinted windows and are worth $ 699 in all. The automatic transmission is $ 1,089 and the fund is $ 19,500. Contains hand-operated locks the doors and set up the windows.
Cab I290 has the opening rear doors on both sides for easy access to the second row, with two folding seats go with 3-point belts and anchorages LATCH child safety. Like most compact pickup back seats, are best suited for children. After rising from a The seat there is a useful toolbox of plastic that flips forward also to provide a flat load space.

This year Series offers side curtain airbags i, one of the few truck accessories vans. Isuzu They are optional on extended cab LS model and standard on the i370 with crew cab.
By far the highlight of the i290 is its engine. At 2.9 liters, is enormous for a four-cylinder engine, and it shows in the numbers: 185 horsepower and 190 lb.-ft. of torque, the latter culminating in a useful way low 2800 rpm. These figures an increase of 10 horsepower and 5 lb-ft over 2.8 liters engine last year.

It would be easy to mistake the i290 performance is offline for a six-cylinder truck. The truck lost part of his get-up-and-go at highway speeds, but in passing acceleration (50-75 km / h) is sufficient. The four-cylinder engine has enough torque to spin the rear wheels, although modest acceleration.

The i290 has a payload capacity of just over 1500 pounds, which is the towing capacity of 2100 and 3100 with the manual with the automatic transmission, more than enough to make a small boat, a pair of vehicles ATV, or utility trailer. Its width is 4 '9 bed, the bed length is 5 'to the crew cabin and 6 'Cab. Mobile support cables allow the tailgate to be held mid-open and the weight in this position.

Address i290 is light and good, but not sporty. The ride is very quiet at highway speeds. As mentioned earlier the i290 entry anti-lock brakes standard but not electronic security features like electronic stability control, which begins to develop in products competitors.
