6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score8.5/10
Comfort Score7.5/10

City Driving

Manual gearbox requires more effort in heavy traffic, but offers good control. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Excellent ground clearance handles speed breakers and potholes with ease. Large footprint makes narrow lanes challenging, but visibility helps.

Highway Performance

175 bhp provides confident highway cruising with adequate overtaking power. Strong diesel torque of 380 Nm makes highway driving relaxed, especially in higher gears.

Ride & Comfort

Torsion beam rear suspension handles most road imperfections adequately. High ground clearance gives confidence over rough patches and unpaved roads. Premium cabin insulation keeps NVH levels low for a refined experience. 350L boot space is adequate for weekend trips. Third-row seating is best for children; adults may find it cramped on long journeys.

"Best SUV I Have Came Across.: I was so confused before purchasing it. I was confused between Fortuner and Endeavor. I took a test drive at least 3 to 4 times of both vehicle then somebody suggested me about ISUZU MUX and after taking 1st test drive immediately my confusion has gone and I booked this SUV and its almost 2 years I'm driving it and let me tell you guys, I am so satisfied, I m looking for its next-generation updated car I m going to purchase it again. My driving is very very Rash and on such rash driving, there is no single noise in my car in the last 2 years. I am very very happy about my decision, of course, I don't care about resale because my thinking is that I am purchasing a car for my driving pleasure not just for thinking that after 3 years what will be the resale value."
