2024 Isuzu mu-X: Redefining Safety and Technology in the SUV Market

Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) unveiled the latest iteration of its flagship SUV, the new 2024 Isuzu mu-X, at an exclusive media test drive event, showcasing its cutting-edge safety features and innovative technology. With a stellar 5-star ASEAN NCAP safety rating attributed to its Advanced Driver Assist System (ADAS) featuring SMART DUO Camera, the new Isuzu mu-X is now equipped with enhanced features aimed at elevating the driving experience while ensuring unparalleled safety for both occupants and surroundings.

The event, spanning from BGC, Taguig to Tagaytay Highlands, covered approximately 60 kilometers, allowing members of the motoring media and influencer group to experience firsthand the vehicle’s enhancements. Upon reaching Tagaytay Highlands, IPC arranged a controlled testing area to highlight its new features, commencing with the introduction of its new 360-degree Around View Monitor (AVM). This cutting-edge system offers drivers a comprehensive view of the vehicle’s perimeter, facilitating navigation through tight parking spots and maneuvering difficult turns effortlessly.

Further augmenting the safety features of the mu-X, IPC showcased its upgraded blind spot monitoring system, capable of detecting vehicles or motorcycles in the driver’s blind spot, thus significantly reducing the risk of accidents during lane changes or turns.

Setting a new standard in safety, IPC introduced the first-in-class Digital Video Recorder (DVR), enabling owners to record up to 11 hours of video from both front and rear cameras without requiring aftermarket dashcam installations. This innovation ensures vehicle warranty integrity while providing added security and convenience to mu-X owners.

Catering to modern, tech-savvy drivers, the 2024 Isuzu mu-X boasts Wireless Connectivity, a feature that participants thoroughly enjoyed. Compatible with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®, any compatible phone seamlessly integrates into its 10.1” Infotainment system.
