Now, more details of Isuzu MU-X have been leaked online, this time around giving a sneak peek at the brochure of the model, which is just a couple of days ahead of its launch in the country.

The safety in the SUV will be taken care of by anti-lock braking system (ABS), electronic brake force distribution (EBD), brake assist, electronic stability control (ESC), traction control system (TCS), hill start assist (HSA), dual front airbags and pre-tensioners.

To be offered in four colour options - Silky White Pearl, Orchid Brown Mica, Cosmic Black Mica and Titanium Silver Metallic, the MU-X will flaunt new grille and projector headlamp and wrap-around rear windshield.

The SUV measures 4,825mm length, 1,860mm in width, 1,840mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2,845mm. In India, Mu-X will take on the likes of Toyota Fortuner, Ford Endeavour and Chevrolet Trailblazer.
