Video Description

The Isuzu MU-X has a new engine option! Subscribe here: www.youtube.com/@therightcar?sub_confirmation=1 It's another diesel. But it's a smaller 2.2L four-cylinder, not based on the iconic 3.0L 4JJ3, but instead it's here to replace the 1.9L diesel engine. It has a new eight-speed automatic gearbox, and the brand has added engine start-stop / stop-start technology as standard. But is it cheap enough compared to the 3.0L MUX? Check out my review of it: https://youtu.be/DM-ZrIUacGs And if you're wondering about the 1.9L, check out my towing test with it: https://youtu.be/XuuAyh8jdwM Have your say in the comments, and check out these alternatives, too! -- Ssangyong Rexton - https://youtu.be/5HHNBIvcu4g GWM Tank 300 diesel - https://youtu.be/ww7uGCHVdik Ford Everest - https://youtu.be/b3VAQoLNeac -- SOME OTHER REVIEWS TO CHECK OUT: BYD Shark 6 - https://youtu.be/UVAxHXvuX8w Suzuki Jimny XL - https://youtu.be/kWBMyC33LzI Mahindra Scorpio - https://youtu.be/4y7c9Riw-wc Mahindra Scorpio vs GWM Tank 300 - https://youtu.be/JpIwo8ONITM GWM Tank 300 on-road review: https://youtu.be/6g8BOhX19JA?si=PnZOEn8-ScRHLSrV GWM Tank 300 hybrid off-road review: https://youtu.be/8uMXfLSmM9c?si=FC10NbZfsMJ56TkB GWM Tank 500 - https://youtu.be/GHCNkFX27f0 ALL 7 SEATERS I'VE REVIEWED - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBy4fvI8Hf_R1CufyQ-k2GfLZE5ldzcv6 -- 00:00 Isuzu MU-X 00:27 Is it the right price? 02:30 What are the best alternatives? 03:52 Is it the right size? 06:24 Interior 10:22 Under the bonnet 11:18 Driving 14:46 Efficiency 16:24 Off-road 19:10 Is it safe? 20:14 Ownership 20:54 Verdict -- I am aiming to review every new car on the market that people actually buy, to help new-car customers like you, or curious car enthusiasts (maybe also like you) get the right steer when it comes to choosing a new set of wheels. If you're looking for a car for yourself, monitoring the market and hunting for the latest info, or even if you've just bought your new car and you're looking to see what experts like me think about it, The Right Car will offer you something of value.
