Although many people regard Isuzu diesel power as the essence, as far as the domestic market is concerned, the provision of diesel power alone seems to narrow the audience. As a result, we see that as is the only SUV model in Isuzu in China, the sales performance of the Ranger equipped with diesel engines is difficult to say. Therefore, if you want to continue to gain a foothold in the market in the future, models equipped with gasoline engines are indispensable. Jiangxi Isuzu also finally "opened the trick", mu-X Ranger gasoline version came into being, equipped with a Ford 2.0T engine.
As a new power model, the Ranger gasoline version has not brought changes in styling design, maintaining the rugged style of hardcore off-road models. The large chrome mesh grille on the front face is a classic design of the Isuzu family, with sharp headlight sets on both sides and three-stage air intakes, which looks like a glare. Thanks to the non-load-bearing body structure, the body shape is tall and powerful, while the full wheel arch shape adds more muscle. The boxy tail contour is atmospheric and stable, and the hidden D-pillar and rear windshield form a coherent style, which is very luxurious. The taillights echo the front face, and the thick chrome trim in the middle adds a sense of sophistication to the whole car.
The interior is adjusted for some details, the shape of the center console remains unchanged, mainly the redesign of the gear shift area: the new electronic shift lever is installed, the physical button is added, the electronic handbrake replaces the mechanical handbrake, etc., and the sense of grade and practicality are significantly improved. In addition, there are through-through wood grain trim panels on the center console, with the central control large screen, mood lights, leather multi-function steering wheel/seat, creating a good luxury technology atmosphere for the car. In addition, it also supports keyless entry/start, CarPlay/CarLife mobile phone interconnection and other functions.
In terms of other configurations, such as lane departure warning system, cruise control, 360-degree panoramic image, main/passenger seat electric adjustment, front seat heating, automatic air conditioning, automatic headlights, rearview mirror power adjustment/heating, automatic anti-glare inner mirror, rain-sensing wiper and other intelligent and comfortable configurations are not absent. Thanks to the 4830/1860/1830mm of length, width and height, 2845mm of wheelbase and large five-seat layout, the space in the car is spacious enough, in addition to the rear central armrest, air conditioning outlet and cup holder, and the rear seat back also supports angle adjustment, proportional reclining, further improving comfort and practicality.
In addition to the above-mentioned home functions, the ranger's off-road ability should not be underestimated. It adopts a non-load-bearing body structure, provides a time-sharing four-wheel drive system, and is equipped with Eaton rear differential lock, which can be said to be the escape artifact of off-road vehicles. The chassis adopts the front double wishbone independent suspension + rear five-link integral bridge non-independent suspension, with ground clearance of 232mm, approach angle of 28°, and departure angle of 24°, which ensures strong off-road performance. It is powered by a 2.0T engine from Ford Ecobost technology produced by Jiangling, with a maximum power of 162 kW (220 hp), a peak torque of 350 Nm, and a transmission system matched with a 6-speed manual transmission.
On the whole, the ranger gasoline version maintains the aura that a hardcore SUV should have, while there is a large space and a wealth of intelligent and comfortable configurations, with strong off-road capabilities, and the comprehensive strength is remarkable. Of course, as a Japanese hardcore SUV, the Ranger gasoline version also continues the "noble" posture, and the official guidance price reaches 279,800 yuan, which is much more expensive than the haval H9 of the same level. If the follow-up to maintain the diesel version of the model often 30,000, 40,000 yuan of terminal discounts, can be home, can cross-country ranger gasoline version is still worth considering.
