Planning To Buy A Used Isuzu D-Max V-Cross? Here Are Things You Need To Consider

The market for pickup trucks in India is very niche. While they are widely used in the commercial space for cargo delivery, when it comes to personal car buyers, the market become even smaller. However, over the last few years, we have seen a growing interest for pickups in the off-road/adventure category with the arrival of the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross. However, it's a bit expensive, with the top-end model going as high as Rs. 33 lakh on-road Delhi. So, if you too are planning to get the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross, but on a tight budget, we suggest getting a pre-owned one. But before you start looking for a used D-Max V-Cross, here are some pros and cons you must consider.

The Isuzu D-Max V-Cross also comes in very handy as a workhorse, offering a payload capacity of 215 kg.

Pros

1. While looks are subjective, the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross does have a strong road presence. The SUV is massive at over 5.2 metres long and almost 3 metres wide. It also gets bi-LED projector lens headlamps, LED DRLs and LED taillights.
2. The pickup truck comes with a very capable 4x4 system with the shift-on-fly function. It is very dependable and imparts the confidence to take it on the most treacherous of terrains.
3. The Isuzu D-Max V-Cross also comes in very handy as a workhorse. The bed at the rear can be loaded up to 215 kg which is its prescribed limit and can accommodate quite a lot.

The cabin of the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross is spacious however it misses out on quite a few creature comforts and connectivity options.

Cons

1. The pre-facelift Isuzu D-Max V-Cross, which you are likely to get in higher numbers, came with a 2.5-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine which though was bigger in displacement but didn't offer quite the low-end punch compared to the 1.9-litre unit in the current model and isn't as refined either.
2. The cabin of the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross is spacious however it misses out on quite a few creature comforts and connectivity options like Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, in-built navigation, premium upholstery, ambient lighting and rear air-con vents to name a few. The rear seat too isn't very comfortable for long-distance travel.
3. Even a used D-Max V-Cross won't come cheap. Prices start from around Rs. 11 lakh and go up to Rs. 17 lakh, depending on the model year, and condition of the vehicle.
