Isuzu “D-Max” Won the Long Distance Driving Challenge

Isuzu D-Max has won the new excited experience that pointed out how powerful the engine is along with the low fuel consumption after traveling 1386 Kilometer from the West Coast to the East Coast with only one stop in Riyadh.

Isuzu proved its fuel economy once again with a new records that emphasizes the ability of D-Max to travel long distances in order to prove the outstanding fuel economy feature, in one hand, and to prove the pick-up engine power, durability and efficiency, on the other hand.

And the second phase started from Riyadh to Isuzu Showroom at Al Khoper with only one full fuel tank, which is 76 liters of diesel that costs 35 Saudi Riyals. The fuel consumption of Isuzu D-Max equals probably 26 Saudi Riyals for each 1000 Kilometer which is a unique feature that indicates how sophisticated Isuzu is.

To prove credibility, the technical team and media who attended the starting point of this experience sealed the fuel tank of the pick-up with sticker, so that it could not be opened until the pick-up arrived to its final destination.

After 10 hours of the starting point, Isuzu D-Max arrived to Riyadh with a limited time of rest along the way where a group of media were awaiting the arrival of the vehicle to assure that the tank is still unopened.
