Dealer Comments
The X-Rider occupies a middle-ground position in the D-MAX line-up, slotting below the LS-U and premium X-Terrain yet above the utilitarian LS-M. It appeals to t seeking a sporty yet practical dual-cab 4×4 that doesn’t break the bank
Under the bonnet sits Isuzu’s dependable 3.0-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine, delivering 140?kW of power at 3,600?rpm and 450?Nm of torque between 1,600–2,600?rpm. Buyers can opt between the six-speed automatic (with a sporty sequential-shift mode) or a six-speed manual, paired to a part-time 4×4 transmission with selectable 2H, 4H, and 4L modes. The X-Rider offers a 3,500?kg braked towing capacity
visually, the X-Rider stands out with gloss-black 17-inch alloy wheels, a satin-black sports bar, darkened grille and mirrors, streamlined side steps, and basalt-black trim accents that lend a tough yet refined aesthetic. Inside, partial-leather seats with red stitching and X-badging, a multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel, and piano-black trim finishes elevate its ambience beyond that of work-oriented Utes
Technology offerings include an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen featuring wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, complemented by two USB-C and one USB-A port. Some sources refer to a driver display upgrade depending on spec, though typically the X-Rider’s screen is smaller than that of higher trim levels
Warranty and roadside assistance under the Service Plus program include a factory-backed six-year / 150,000?km comprehensive warranty, with up to seven years roadside assistance
and 5 years capped price servicing
