All Isuzu D-Max models from the 2021 model year (21MY) onwards, equipped with the RZ4E 1.9-litre engine, are HVO100-compatible. That means your fleet can start using this renewable diesel alternative today, without the need for any conversion or additional equipment.

As towing requirements and conditions can vary significantly there is no right or wrong answer although the recommendation is to choose a gear that maintains optimum torque while not compromising fuel economy. The gear selection should be made to keep the engine RPM between 1800rpm and 2500rpm, this way the engine is not ‘over revving’ but maintains peak torque output. When pulling away, do not over use or consistently slip the clutch.
