Isuzu reveals new diesel truck
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Isuzu Trucks has announced the latest addition to their N-Series diesel trucks – the NPR-XD.
The NPR-XD bridges the gap between the NPR-HD (with a gross vehicle weight rating of 14,500-lb) and the NQR (17,950-lb GVWR) with a weight rating of 16,000-lb.
“This new diesel model meets a number of vocational applications and requirements that previously might have required moving from an NPR-HD up to the NQR,” said Shaun Skinner, executive vice-president and general manager of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America. “Now, the NPR-XD offers more payload capacity at an even more competitive price.”
The new NPR-XD standard cab will be available in the 109-, 132.5-, 150 -and 176-inch wheelbases. The crew cab will be available in 150- and 176-inch wheelbases. Every NPR-XD is powered by the Isuzu 4HK1-TC 5.2-litre diesel engine and with a six-speed automatic transmission the powerplant gives 215 horsepower.

Hi just so you know I have a Isuzu engine in my 2008 top kick Chevrolet truck . If anyone in their right mine buys one of these engines they are not in their right mine!!!! These engines just go in to limp mod for no reason . If you are in Nova Scotai there is only one place in the province to have it fixed and they do not scock parts they have to order and it tacks awhile. If you do not believe me I have proof. My Top kick does not even have 100000 I’m on it fo it just does not work. Thanks. Edson Hankinson
