The new MU-X reportedly got its name due to its Rz4E engine, a Euro 4-compliant 1.9-liter turbodiesel with 148hp and 350Nm.
Rz4E is reportedly low in fuel consumption, light weight, low noise and vibration, and easy serviceability. Isuzu Philippines claims that the RZ4E has a fuel economy of 35.8km/L on the highway and 24.13km/L fuel economy on mixed highway and city driving.
Below are the official prices for the different MU-X Rz4E variants:
- LS RZ4E base variant MT: P1,395,000
- LS-A RZ4E 4×2 MT: P1,570,000
- MU-X LS-A RZ4E 4×2 AT: P1,595,000
MU-X RZ4E will be rolled out in the market starting April 1, 2018. The D-Max RZ4E will come later in June.
The latest MU-X will be officially introduced at the 2018 Manila International Auto Show (MIAS), on April 5.
