The MU-X is available in only one trim, with the main choice being between rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. Both versions have the same set of features, including six airbags, ESC, and hill-start assist. Other features on board include leather seats, powered driver’s seat adjustment, and cruise control. However, the MU-X lacks certain features such as auto headlights and wipers, which gives it a less luxurious feel compared to its more expensive competitors. While the new Indian MU-X may not be new to global markets, it is new for us. The Japanese manufacturer has made efforts to make the MU-X more appealing while still maintaining its traditional SUV design.

Isuzu MU-X Information

The Isuzu MU-X is a rugged SUV that provides a comfortable ride, spacious cabin, practicality, and an impressive exterior. It competes with the Toyota Fortuner and Ford Endeavour; however, these SUVs outperform the MU-X in terms of performance, features, and brand reputation. To compensate for this, Isuzu has priced the MU-X at a significantly lower price point, making it an attractive option on paper. However, upon closer inspection, the MU-X lacks some of the advanced features offered by its competitors. Therefore, the MU-X is a suitable choice for buyers with budget constraints or those looking for an alternative to Ford or Toyota.
