2022 Isuzu D-MAX Single Cab: Workhorse Reliability Meets Modern Functionality The 2022 Isuzu D-MAX Single Cab stands tall as a testament to what a hardworking bakkie should be. Dressed in pristine white and priced at a competitive R329,900, this manual transmission workhorse offers the perfect balance of rugged functionality and practical design that tradespeople, farmers, and business owners across South Africa have come to rely on. Performance & Efficiency Under the bonnet lurks Isuzu's renowned 1.9-litre turbo diesel engine, engineered specifically for South African conditions. This powerplant delivers impressive pulling power with approximately 110kW of grunt and a substantial 350Nm of torque available from low in the rev range exactly where you need it when hauling heavy loads. The responsive 6-speed manual transmission puts control firmly in your hands, allowing precise gear selection whether you're crawling up a steep incline with a full load or cruising comfortably on the N1. This D-MAX sips diesel at approximately 7.0L/100km on combined cycles, stretching your fuel budget further while still offering brisk performance with a 0-100km/h time of around 10 seconds impressive for a vehicle built primarily for work rather than speed.
