No it's the one before that.
When it comes to making expensive junk, you cannot beat the Italians.
the venza is a better looking mid sized suv.....

It looks more like a station wagon than an SUV. It's called the Avenzis in NZ.
over where i am, the dealerships call it a "crossover", a low profile suv that drives like a sports sedan, hatchback or station wagon. honda has the "crosstour"...

Boss, as you are aware that the new MU-X SUV as well as the V-Cross pickup truck is built around the D-MAX platform there for they share many parts and designs. All three vehicle have almost identical dashboard
I wish to inform you that these vehicle do not come with cruise-control which is something I use very often in my long drive here, this may not be a concern for you as some don't like cruise control. So I miss this feature very much when I drive the V-Cross.
This are photos of the MU-X dash
I recently found a 3rd party cruise control that matched the steering wheel designed specially for this vehicle
I'm thinking of installing this, costs only $6,500 baht (S$260 ; NZ$230), its a 30mins job and they will come to you with transport fee of course of S$15 or less.
My only concern is whether if this 3rd party thing will go crazy one day and not be able to cut off when I brake the vehicle.
is this car a fuel thirsty monster?
No it's a diesel and they're 30% more fuel efficient compared to the equivalent petrol variant.
Sam got to answer you on this however if I may add, my 3L V-Cross 1 full tank of diesel can easily last me 920km and I've stretched many times above 1,000km no problem on that 76L fuel tank.
The D Max trucks in NZ have cruise control.

I would not advise after market cruise control. This is a critical component and you cannot afford to have anything go wrong.
Since all the UTEs imported to NZ come from the Thai factory, I'm sure you should be able to get a factory installed cruise option added to your current vehicle. It's a matter of paying the right price to make it worth their while.
Would you take a plane using 3rd party auto pilot? :p
Damn lucky you have cruise control model there.
I've already asked Isuzu's dealers all told me no such model. Guess got to go factory direct but they won't entertain sure ask me go to dealers.
This 3rd party said his product is from supplier who supply to Isuzu for export model which is why the matching plastic holder to the steering wheel. But I not too sure. Also added this is made in Thailand by Japanese company supplying to Isuzu.
I will certainly not. No thanks.
You need to arrange an inside job... someone who works in the factory who will install for you on the quiet.
I'm sure there are aftermarket cruise control units that are just as good as the original. After all Isuzu does not make these units themselves. They source them from the specialist manufacturers.
The trick is to know which are quality parts and which are cheap and inferior. I'm sure there must be a mechanic in your area with the necessary knowledge.

Thanks. Have been having the V-Cross for 1.5yrs rarely drive only short distance during weekends so it's ok but recently did some driving over 100km felt I missed this feature which is why past few days looking into this. Will probably ask around before making decision.
Went to test drive these this morning. The UTE is a special edition with racing seats, larger rims and wider tyres and a fancy paint job. Nice ride for a truck but only 2 wheel drive.
The MU-X felt heavy and sluggish and a rather noisy. I don't want it anymore. My Toyota 4 runner is better.
Rubbish. Porsche Cayenne is the most beautiful car on earth.
It's the ugliest Porsche on earth.
