New vs Old Comparison: 2022 New Isuzu Mu-X vs old model, Upgraded or not?

More and more Filipinos are choosing SUVs over other vehicles out in the local market as space is essential if you want to go places with the whole family. With the rapidly soaring popularity of the segment, you would see several comparison reviews among rivals to figure out which is better than the other. But, will the 2022 version of the vehicles you are eying be really better than their outgoing versions?

2022 Isuzu mu-X

When it comes to premium-level offerings, Isuzu mu-X has always been competitive as it brings out the company's best efforts in providing a high-quality SUV. When Isuzu Philippines popped the curtain to reveal the 2022 Isuzu mu-X, it attracted the attention of potential buyers as it didn't just go above its competitors, but it has also gotten better than its outgoing model.

The mu-X's exterior look has gotten better with its facelifted front fascia. It has a wider radiator vent grille and a more refined look, and it is a lot more aggressive-looking than before. All exterior lights are now LED-lit; plus, it now comes with Signature Arrow Bi-LED headlamps. At the back, the Isuzu mu-X badge has changed to be more sophisticated-looking than before. The D-pillar has also changed to a sloping design following the roof slope. The overall exterior aesthetic of the 2022 mu-X has gotten more elegant than the outgoing version.

Just like its exterior profile, the entire cabin of the 2022 mu-X has gotten more elegant-looking than before. The seats and the steering wheel are covered with premium-quality leather, and the dashboard panel looks sleeker and more refined than the outgoing mu-X. Plus, the all-new mu-X has a remote start assist function, which is beneficial and cool.

When it comes to the powering mechanism of the 2022 Isuzu mu-X, it still has two choices, but the top-spec variant has gotten better with a 3.0-liter 4JJ3-TCX engine that produces 188 horsepower and 450 Nm of torque max. output, while the lower trims get a 1.9-liter RZ4E engine that makes 148 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque max. output. Both variants come with a turbo mode, but the 4x4 drivetrain configuration is only available in the top-spec variant.

Obviously, the 2022 Isuzu mu-X is a lot better than its outgoing model, which only means that Isuzu has done a good job developing before's already competitive Isuzu mu-X.
