dmax Isuzu 1.9 engine is imported. The following is the relevant introduction about Isuzu D-MAX: Engine: The D-MAX is equipped with the new Isuzu 4JK1 engine. The engine is originally imported from Japan, with powerful functions. The 4J engine, and even all Isuzu engines, can be said to have strong power and are also fuel-efficient. Body size: The length, width and height of Isuzu D-MAX are 5295/1860/1830mm respectively, the wheelbase is 3095mm, and the size of the cargo box is 1480/1530/480mm.
I recalled the topic about the D-MAX Isuzu with the 1.9-liter engine from my last conversation with friends. As a veteran pickup driver with ten years of experience, I think this engine performs quite impressively—it's powerful and fuel-efficient, especially on highways. Regarding the import issue, I remember the 4S store salesperson mentioned it's produced in Thailand and shipped to China for assembly, so it counts as an imported component. Jiangxi Isuzu has a high localization rate, but the core engine is still guaranteed by the original manufacturer. It's reliable for daily driving, but you need to choose good-quality oil for maintenance, as domestic diesel quality can sometimes be unstable. Related driving experience: If you frequently go off-road or carry heavy loads, this engine has good durability with few minor issues.
