The '''[[Toyota]] 4Runner SUV''' is an [[SUV]] manufactured by [[Toyota]], sold mainly in the United States, Canada and Mexico and built from 1984 to the present. The original 4Runner was little more than a Toyota pickup truck with a fiberglass shell over the bed, but the model has since undergone significant independent development into a mid-size SUV.

The 4Runner is sold outside North America as the '''[[Toyota]] Hilux Surf'''. All 4Runners have been built at Toyota's plant in Tahara, Japan as well at [[Toyota]]'s Hino plant.

See Wikicars' comprehensive '''[[Toyota 4Runner Review]]'''.

===Recent Changes===
The 4Runner was recently given an overhaul in 2003 with the arrival of a new platform. Since then, changes have consisted of minor updates, and this year is no different. For 2006, the 4Runner received new front and lower body stylings, including updates to the grille and headlights. The Sport trim now has chrome license plate trim, and the Limited now comes standard with 18" wheels.

===Styles and Major Options===
The 2006 4Runner is available in 3 major trims: the SR5, the Sport, and the Limited. Each of these come standard with a 4.0L 236[[hp]] [[V6]] engine and a 5-speed [[automatic transmission]]. A 4.7L 260[[hp]] [[V8]] is optional. The SR5 is the base model, and while the Limited expands upon the features offered in the SR5, the Sport is equipped to be, as the name indicates, a little more rugged. Some of the standout features include:

'''SR5'''
* Integrated fog lamps
* Hill Start Assist Control
* 16" wheels
* 6-Speaker AM/FM/CD stereo with MP3 capability
* 8-way power driver's seat
* Black/Silver interior trim
* Cruise Control

'''Sport'''

Adds to or replaces SR5 options with:
* 17" wheels
* Sports enhanced suspension
* Color keyed front/rear bumpers, door handles, fender flares
* Smoked chrome grille
* High contrast fabric trim seats
* Silver tone accent shift knob
* Tilt/telescopic steering wheel

'''Limited'''

Adds to or replaces Sport options with:
* Auto on/off projector headlamps

===Reliability===
The most recent generation of the 4Runner debuted in 2003. Automotive Information Systems reports that the 4Runner for that year was overall a reliable vehicle, with some moderate engine problems. However, it can be expected that [[Toyota]] has worked to rectify this situation since the debut of this platform.

===Safety===
Both the first and second generation 4Runners became targeted as very unsafe SUVs. 1980s and early-1990s US crash regulations were not very strict for light trucks, and all early model 4Runners were fitted with doors that offered little protection in the event of a side collision. In most areas, there was little more than two pieces of sheetmetal and the window to keep incoming vehicles from impacting passengers.The crash test rating for the second generation 4runner was one star for the drivers side in a frontal collision although the passenger side got a 4 star rating. Later, more stringent crash regulations mandated doors that offered as much protection as passenger car doors.

The most common accusations, however, were that 4Runners (and other narrow-track SUVs of the time) were prone to [[rollover]]s. Many light SUVs of the time featured comparatively high centers of gravity and, given the right situations, could be flipped over. Whether or not this is a serious road hazard is dependent on many parameters including the speed of the vehicle, the tires fitted to the vehicle, the road surface, and the driver's ability to predict and correct for situations that may result in a rollover. Third generation 4Runners were designed with a wider track, but it is unclear if this was directly in response to increased pressure from safety groups, or if it was simply a product engineering decision.

For the 2007 model, the [http://www.safercar.gov NHTSA] reports that the 4Runner received a 4-Star rating for front-impact crash tests and a 5-Star rating for side-impact tests. Rollover, however, seemes to remain somewhat a weakness, as it achieved a comparatively low 3-Star rating in that area.

*[[Toyota Highlander]]

==Hybrid Models==
There are currently no [[Hybrid Cars|hybrid]] versions of the 4Runner in production.

==Unique Attributes==

==Resale Values==
According to [http://www.kbb.com Kelley Blue Book,] "in the volatile world of [[SUV]] resale, the 4Runner continually outperforms the competition. The four-wheel-drive 4Runner SR5's 24-month projected residual value is 62 percent. Compare that to the [[Nissan Pathfinder]] SE at 46 percent, the [[Dodge Durango]] at 46 percent and the [[Chevrolet TrailBlazer]] at 51 percent, and the 4Runner's value story becomes crystal clear."

==Criticisms==
* Third row seating is uncomfortable and takes up much of the cargo space.
* Operation of the climate control interface is clumsy.

==Current Generation: (2003–present)==
The fourth generation 4Runner incorporated serious changes to the chassis and body of the vehicle, but was targeted at approximately the same demographics as the third generation. The updated 4Runner looks very different from the older 4Runners, but is still targeted as a mid-size quasi-luxury SUV. Available trims are currently the SR5, Sport Edition, and the Limited. An all-new 4.0 L [[V6|V6]] is standard in the current 4Runner, but for the first time, a V8 became available for the fourth generation models. The same 4.7 L V8 found in the [[Toyota Land Cruiser|Land Cruiser]], [[Toyota Tundra|Tundra]], and [[Toyota Sequoia|Sequoia]] is now an available option for the fourth generation.

==Previous Generations==
===Third generation (1996-2002)===
1996 marked another significant redesign of the then-aging 4Runner. Whereas the transition to the second generation 4Runner was one that kept the build quality and options roughly on par with the rest of the mid-size SUV market, the changes made in the third generation turned the 4Runner into a more luxury-oriented vehicle. This move paralleled the upgrades to the 1996 [[Nissan Pathfinder]], but moved the 4Runner into a distinctly different class than its older competitors, the [[Ford Explorer]], [[Chevrolet TrailBlazer]], and [[Isuzu Rodeo]]. The third generation 4Runner did, however, look very similar to the second generation.

This similarity largely ended with its looks. It carried over the basic design and concept, but executed it differently with an all-new bodyshell on an all-new chassis. This time, it shared virtually nothing with the pickup it had originally evolved from, and had more in common with the Land Cruiser, as it shared its chassis with that of the [[Toyota Land Cruiser|Land Cruiser Prado]].

Significant changes from the second generation models include a larger body on a longer wheelbase, increased interior space, increased cargo space, twin airbags, [[ABS]], lift-up tailgate, coil-sprung suspension all round, rack and pinion steering. Additionally, Hilux Surf versions immediately moved to 16 in wheels and gained a center differential, enabling the use of four wheel drive on hard surfaces without complication for the first time. The prior system was retained to give on-the-fly shifting between rear and four wheel drive as before.

===Second generation (1990-1995)===
The 1990 model year 4Runner represented a fundamental departure from the first-generation model. Instead of an enhanced pickup truck, the new 4Runners featured a freshly designed body mounted on an existing frame. The difference is easily seen when comparing pickups and 4Runners of similar vintage: a 1984 4Runner looks remarkably similar to a 1984 Toyota pickup, whereas a 1990 4Runner shares only subtle styling details with the 1990 pickup.

Nearly all second generation 4Runners were 4-door models, however from 1990 to 1992, a 2-door model was also produced. These models are similar to the 4-door models of the time in that the bodies were formed as a single unit, instead of the fiberglass tops used in the first-generation 4Runners. Two-door 4Runners from this era are extremely rare, and were discontinued in August 1992, probably due to high importation duties and insurance costs.

Because the drivelines were still developed from the same source, however, available engines were identical. A new 2.4 L four cylinder and the same 3.0 L [[V6|V6]] were both available in rear wheel drive and four wheel drive layouts. The new 4Runner used the independent front suspension that had been developed on the previous generation. The older style gear driven transfer case was phased out, and both engines now had chain driven cases, probably to cut down cab noise and vibration.

The Hilux Surf version for the Japanese market was also available with a range of diesel engines, including a 2.4 L turbodiesel I4 up to 1993, followed by a 3.0 L turbodiesel I4. A small number were also made with a normally aspirated 2.8 L diesel I4. A small number were also produced with a 2.0 L I4 naturally-aspirated gasoline engine.

Most other full-body SUVs produced at the time (e.g. [[Nissan Pathfinder]], [[Ford Explorer]]) featured tailgates that opened upward with the glass closed. In contrast, the second generation 4Runner carried over the retractable-glass tailgate from the first generation. Opening these tailgates requires first retracting the rear window into the tailgate and then lowering the tailgate much like as on a pickup truck.

In 1992, the 4Runner received minor cosmetic updates, including modular headlamps instead of the increasingly outdated rectangular sealed beams. Additional cosmetic changes occurred between 1993 and 1995, the last year of the second generation.

===First Generation (1984-1989)===
[[Image:4Runner_newOld2_sm.jpg|right|250px|1st Generation 4Runner]]
The Toyota pickup (upon which the 4Runner was originally based) underwent a major redesign in 1983 for the 1984 model year. Many other automakers were introducing mid-size SUVs in the mid 1980s (e.g., [[Ford Bronco II]], [[Chevrolet S-10 Blazer]]) and the pressure mounted on Toyota to develop a competing model. Instead of developing an entirely new model, Toyota took their existing short-bed pickup frame, made some simple modifications, and added an open one-piece body with a removable fiberglass top (much like the full-size [[Ford Bronco]] and [[Chevrolet K5 Blazer]]).

Thus, the first generation 4Runner is nearly mechanically identical to the Toyota pickup. All first generation 4Runners had two-doors and were indistinguishable from the pickups from the dashboard forward. Nearly all changes were to the latter half of the body; in fact, because the rear springs were not upgraded to cope with the additional weight of the rear seats and fiberglass top, these early models tend to suffer from sagging rear suspensions.

The first 4Runners were introduced in 1984 as 1984 1/2 models. For this first year, all models were equipped with black or white fiberglass tops. An '''SR5''' trim package was offered that upgraded the interior: additional gauges, better fabrics, and a rear seat were standard with the package. All 1984 models were equipped with the [[carburetor|carbureted]] 2.4 L '''[[Toyota R engine#22R|22R]]''' engine and were all available with a [[four wheel drive]] system that drove the front wheels through a solid front axle (although this would be changed in 1986).

1985 saw the advent of the electronically fuel-injected 2.4 L '''[[Toyota R engine#22R|22R-E]]''' engine (though the carbureted engine remained available until 1988). Additionally, rear seats were available in all 1985 4Runner trim levels, not just the SR5.

In 1986, all American-market Toyota pickup trucks (and the 4Runner) underwent a major design change as the suspension was changed from a [[live axle|solid front axle]] to an [[independent suspension|independent front suspension]]. This change for the American market made the trucks more driveable at highway speeds and increased the space in the engine compartment, but arguably decreased the truck's off-road capabilities. It also widened the track of the truck by three inches, making it more stable in turns. Outside the US, the Hilux Surf also gained the new Hi-Trac suspension design, though the pickups retained the more rugged and capable, if less refined, solid axle configuration. Tops were color-matched on blue or red 4Runners, while other body colors were still sold with white or black tops. During 1986 many 4Runners were imported to the US without rear seats. With only two seats the vehicle could be classified as a truck (rather than a sport vehicle) and could skirt the higher customs duties placed upon sport and pleasure vehicles. Most had aftermarked seats and seat belts added by North American dealers after they were imported.

A [[Turbo Engine|turbocharged]] version of the 22R-E engine (the '''[[Toyota R engine#22R|22R-TE]]''') was also introduced in 1986, although this engine is significantly rarer than the base 22RE. These [[Turbo Engine|turbocharged]] models (designated '''4Runner SR5 [[Turbo Engine|Turbo]]''') were equipped with a wider-ratio transmission and heavier rear differentials. Low-option models had a small light in the gauge cluster to indicate [[Turbo Engine|turbo]] boost, while more plush vehicles were equipped with an all-digital dash that included a boost gauge. All [[Turbo Engine|turbocharged]] 4Runner models sold were apparently equipped with an [[Automatic transmission|automatic]] transmission, though a manual could be had in the pickups. [[Turbo Engine|Turbocharged]] and naturally aspirated diesel engines were available in the pickups at this time as well, but it appears that no diesel-powered 4Runners were imported to the United States.

In 1988, the 22R-E engine was joined by an optional 3.0 L [[V6]] engine, the '''[[Toyota VZ engine|3VZ-FE]]'''. This engine was significantly larger and more powerful than the original 4-cylinder offering. Trucks sold with the [[V6|V6]] engine were equipped with the same heavy duty rear differential that was used in the [[Turbo Engine|turbocharged]] trucks, as well as a completely new transmission and transfer case; the transfer case was chain driven, and created less cab noise than the old gear-driven unit used behind the four cylinder engine.

Small cosmetic and option changes were made in 1989, but the model was left largely untouched in lieu of the replacement model then undergoing final development.

===Origins===
Prior to the official introduction of the 4Runner in 1984, Toyota entered into collaborations with Winnebago, Griffith Coach, and another American conversion company to convert short-bed Toyota Hilux pickups into 4Runner-style vehicles. Winnebago's conversion used a Toyota RV cab and chassis retrofitted with a fiberglass rear section made by Winnebago. The vehicle was available in two or four wheel drive. In a slightly different approach, Griffith started with a complete pickup, cutting the back of the cab out, sealing the gap between the cab and bed, and attaching a permanent camper shell. Rear seats were also added. Winnebago called their vehicle the Tekker, Griffith called theirs the TrailBlazer, and the third company sold theirs as the Wolverine. All of the vehicles were made in relatively small numbers and few remain in existence today.

==Worldwide==

==Design quirks and oddities==
An unusual feature is a pair of small convex mirrors at the rear corners of the interior, designed to help the driver see approaching vehicles when backing out of a parking space. The mirrors work on the same principal as those big convex mirrors mounted at the corners of large parking garages. In the 4Runner, they help the driver detect motion in a busy parking lot. Using them effectively, however, takes some practice, as it's hard to distinguish details. We're guessing most people don't use them.

The durability of this engine is apparent in its B10 rating of 400,000 miles, meaning only 10% of those produced require an overhaul before 400,000 miles.

Introduction
The '''[[Isuzu]] i-Series''' [[pickup truck]] line was launched at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. The i-Series replaces the [[Isuzu Hombre]], which has been out of production since 2000. Like the Hombre, the i-Series shares its platform with the [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] mid-size pickups. It is built at the same plant in Shreveport, Louisiana which produces the [[Chevrolet Colorado]] and [[GMC Canyon]], which were in turn developed off the chassis of the Thai-built Isuzu D-Max by GM, Isuzu, and GM do Brazil.

The i-Series will likely be the last new model line sold by Isuzu in the American market as years of falling sales have all but forced Isuzu to stop selling passenger vehicles in the US. i-Series sales have been poor, with just 1,377 sold from the start of production through February 2006 according to Automotive News.

See WikiCars' comprehensive [[Isuzu i-Series Review|'''Isuzu i-Series Review''']].

==2007 Make Model==

===Recent Changes===
There are only engine changes for the 2007 model. The ''Atlas LK5'' inline-4 of the i280 has been enlarged to 2.9 liters giving it an increase of 10 [[hp]] to 285 and 5 lb-ft of torque to 190. The ''Atlas L52'' inline-5 engine is enlarged to 3.7 liters with a boost of 22 [[hp]] and 17 lb-ft of torque. The i-350 is now the i-370, and the i-280 is now the i-290.

===Styles and Major Options===
The i-Series is available with two cab configurations, two engines, two transmissions, two drivetrains and two trim levels. The base model i-290 is available only in extended cab, 2-wheel drive configuration, with a choice of S or LS trim and manual or automatic transmission. The i-370 features a choice of extended or crew cab, LS or Luxury trim, and automatic transmission. Four-wheel-drive is offered only on i-370 Crew Cab models.

==Criticisms==
Reviews of the i-Series are scarce, being a badge-engineered vehicle. Critics of the [[Chevrolet Colorado]] and [[GMC Canyon]] on which the i-Series is based, have been mostly about its smaller-than-average dimensions and lack of power from the thirsty 5-cylinder. GM claims the "power of a V6 and the fuel economy of an inline-4", although it seems the stats are reversed.

Introduction
The '''[[Isuzu]] i-Series''' [[pickup truck]] line was launched at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. The i-Series replaces the [[Isuzu Hombre]], which has been out of production since 2000. Like the Hombre, the i-Series shares its platform with the [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] mid-size pickups. It is built at the same plant in Shreveport, Louisiana which produces the [[Chevrolet Colorado]] and [[GMC Canyon]], which were in turn developed off the chassis of the Thai-built Isuzu D-Max by GM, Isuzu, and GM do Brazil.

The i-Series will likely be the last new model line sold by Isuzu in the American market as years of falling sales have all but forced Isuzu to stop selling passenger vehicles in the US. i-Series sales have been poor, with just 1,377 sold from the start of production through February 2006 according to Automotive News.

See WikiCars' comprehensive [[Isuzu i-Series Review|'''Isuzu i-Series Review''']].

==2007 Make Model==

===Recent Changes===
There are only engine changes for the 2007 model. The ''Atlas LK5'' inline-4 of the i280 has been enlarged to 2.9 liters giving it an increase of 10 [[hp]] to 285 and 5 lb-ft of torque to 190. The ''Atlas L52'' inline-5 engine is enlarged to 3.7 liters with a boost of 22 [[hp]] and 17 lb-ft of torque. The i-350 is now the i-370, and the i-280 is now the i-290.

===Styles and Major Options===
The i-Series is available with two cab configurations, two engines, two transmissions, two drivetrains and two trim levels. The base model i-290 is available only in extended cab, 2-wheel drive configuration, with a choice of S or LS trim and manual or automatic transmission. The i-370 features a choice of extended or crew cab, LS or Luxury trim, and automatic transmission. Four-wheel-drive is offered only on i-370 Crew Cab models.

Introduction
The '''[[Isuzu]] i-Series''' [[pickup truck]] line was launched at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. The i-Series replaces the [[Isuzu Hombre]], which has been out of production since 2000. Like the Hombre, the i-Series shares its platform with the [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] mid-size pickups. It is built at the same plant in Shreveport, Louisiana which produces the [[Chevrolet Colorado]] and [[GMC Canyon]], which were in turn developed off the chassis of the Thai-built Isuzu D-Max by GM, Isuzu, and GM do Brazil.

The i-Series will likely be the last new model line sold by Isuzu in the American market as years of falling sales have all but forced Isuzu to stop selling passenger vehicles in the US. i-Series sales have been poor, with just 1,377 sold from the start of production through February 2006 according to Automotive News.

See WikiCars' comprehensive [[Isuzu i-Series Review|'''Isuzu i-Series Review''']].

==2007 Make Model==

===Recent Changes===
There are only engine changes for the 2007 model. The ''Atlas LK5'' inline-4 of the i280 has been enlarged to 2.9 liters giving it an increase of 10 [[hp]] to 285 and 5 lb-ft of torque to 190. The ''Atlas L52'' inline-5 engine is enlarged to 3.7 liters with a boost of 22 [[hp]] and 17 lb-ft of torque. The i-350 is now the i-370, and the i-280 is now the i-290.

===Styles and Major Options===
The i-Series is available with two cab configurations, two engines, two transmissions, two drivetrains and two trim levels. The base model i-290 is available only in extended cab, 2-wheel drive configuration, with a choice of S or LS trim and manual or automatic transmission. The i-370 features a choice of extended or crew cab, LS or Luxury trim, and automatic transmission. Four-wheel-drive is offered only on i-370 Crew Cab models.

Introduction
The '''[[Isuzu]] i-Series''' [[pickup truck]] line was launched at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. The i-Series replaces the [[Isuzu Hombre]], which has been out of production since 2000. Like the Hombre, the i-Series shares its platform with the [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] mid-size pickups. It is built at the same plant in Shreveport, Louisiana which produces the [[Chevrolet Colorado]] and [[GMC Canyon]], which were in turn developed off the chassis of the Thai-built Isuzu D-Max by GM, Isuzu, and GM do Brazil.

The i-Series will likely be the last new model line sold by Isuzu in the American market as years of falling sales have all but forced Isuzu to stop selling passenger vehicles in the US. i-Series sales have been poor, with just 1,377 sold from the start of production through February 2006 according to Automotive News.

See WikiCars' comprehensive [[Isuzu i-Series Review|'''Isuzu i-Series Review''']].

==2007 Make Model==

===Recent Changes===
There are only engine changes for the 2007 model. The ''Atlas LK5'' inline-4 of the i280 has been enlarged to 2.9 liters giving it an increase of 10 [[hp]] to 285 and 5 lb-ft of torque to 190. The ''Atlas L52'' inline-5 engine is enlarged to 3.7 liters with a boost of 22 [[hp]] and 17 lb-ft of torque. The i-350 is now the i-370, and the i-280 is now the i-290.

===Styles and Major Options===
The i-Series is available with two cab configurations, two engines, two transmissions, two drivetrains and two trim levels. The base model i-290 is available only in extended cab, 2-wheel drive configuration, with a choice of S or LS trim and manual or automatic transmission. The i-370 features a choice of extended or crew cab, LS or Luxury trim, and automatic transmission. Four-wheel-drive is offered only on i-370 Crew Cab models.

Introduction
The '''[[Isuzu]] i-Series''' [[pickup truck]] line was launched at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. The i-Series replaces the [[Isuzu Hombre]], which has been out of production since 2000. Like the Hombre, the i-Series shares its platform with the [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] mid-size pickups. It is built at the same plant in Shreveport, Louisiana which produces the [[Chevrolet Colorado]] and [[GMC Canyon]], which were in turn developed off the chassis of the Thai-built Isuzu D-Max by GM, Isuzu, and GM do Brazil.

The i-Series will likely be the last new model line sold by Isuzu in the American market as years of falling sales have all but forced Isuzu to stop selling passenger vehicles in the US. i-Series sales have been poor, with just 1,377 sold from the start of production through February 2006 according to Automotive News.

See WikiCars' comprehensive [[Isuzu i-Series Review|'''Isuzu i-Series Review''']].

==Unique Attributes==

==Resale Values==

==Criticisms==
Reviews of the i-Series are scarce, being a badge-engineered vehicle. Critics of the [[Chevrolet Colorado]] and [[GMC Canyon]] on which the i-Series is based, have been mostly about its smaller-than-average dimensions and lack of power from the thirsty 5-cylinder. GM claims the "power of a V6 and the fuel economy of an inline-4", although it seems the stats are reversed.

{{List Of Isuzu Models}}

'''Isuzu Motors Ltd.''' (いすゞ自動車株式会社 ''Isuzu Jidōsha Kabushiki-gaisha'') is a Japanese commercial vehicle and heavy truck manufacturer company, headquartered in Tokyo. In 2005, Isuzu was the world's largest manufacturer of medium duty trucks. It has assembly and manufacturing plants in the Japanese city of Fujisawa, as well as in the prefectures Tochigi and Hokkaido. Isuzu is famous for producing commercial vehicles and [[diesel engine]]s - it produced 16 million diesel engines in 2003 alone, which can be found in vehicles all over the world. In addition to making trucks of all sizes, from 1953 to 1993 Isuzu manufactured passenger vehicles in close cooperation with General Motors.

Although best known in the United States for automobiles and SUVs, Isuzu as a corporation has always been primarily a manufacturer of commercial trucks of sizes medium duty and larger.

==History==
* 1916 - Tokyo Ishikawajima Shipbuilding and Engineering Co., Ltd. and Tokyo Gas and Electric Industrial Co. cooperatively plan to build automobiles.
* 1918 - A technical cooperation with Wolseley Motor Company (UK) is initiated. In 1922 the first Wolseley model A-9 car is domestically produced. The CP [[truck]] follows two years later.
* 1933 - Ishikawajima Automotive Works merges with Dot Automobile Manufacturing and changes its name to Automobile Industries Co., Ltd.
* 1934 - A meeting with the Ministry of Trade and Industry results in the renaming of the ''truck'' to '''Isuzu''', after the [[Isuzu River]].
* 1949 - Isuzu is adopted as ''company name''.
* 1953 - With technical assistance of [[Rootes]] (U.K.) the [[Hillman Minx]] passenger car is produced.
* 1971 - A capital agreement with [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] is signed.
* 1972 - The [[Chevrolet LUV]] becomes the first Isuzu-built vehicle to be sold in the United States. It later becomes the [[Chevrolet S-10]], and is twinned with the [[GMC Sonoma|GMC S-15/Sonoma]].
* 1973 - Isuzu introduces the Gemini, which is co-produced with General Motors.
* 1981 - Isuzu-branded consumer and commercial vehicles are successfully exported to the United States. The [[Isuzu P'up]] is the first model sold to consumers.
* 1987 - The joint venture [[Subaru Isuzu Automotive]] Inc. (SIA) is established together with Fuji Heavy Industries, owner of [[Subaru]].
* 1993 - Isuzu stops exporting the Stylus, its last car in America, after ending the Impulse the year before.
* 1996 - Isuzu's sales peak in the United States. Joe Isuzu is popular pitchman with implausible claims, was also hired for the Axiom.
* 1998 - [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] and Isuzu form [[DMAX]], a joint venture to produce [[diesel]] engines.
* 1999 - GM raises its stake in Isuzu to 49%, effectively gaining control of the company.
* 2001 - Isuzu sales begin to slide as the [[Isuzu Rodeo|Rodeo]] and [[Isuzu Trooper|Trooper]] age. Movie Spy kids features Isuzu Axiom and Trooper.
* 2002 - Subaru buys Isuzu's share of US plant. Subaru Isuzu Automotive becomes [[Subaru of Indiana Automotive]].
* August 14, 2002 - General Motors reduces its 49% share in Isuzu to 12% as part of a comprehensive recapitalization of Isuzu. GM also takes full control of [[DMAX]] and [[Isuzu Motors Polska]], with Isuzu losing not just the factories but also ownership of all engine designs.
* 2003 - Isuzu sales were eliminated from the Canadian market. Canadian dealers mostly selling [[Saturn (car)|Saturn]] and [[Saab]] cars drop Isuzu cars from the lineup.
* July 2004 - Production of the Rodeo and [[Isuzu Axiom|Axiom]] stopped. Isuzu sales in North America slow, with just 27,188 vehicles sold in all of 2004, with the cancelled Rodeo and Axiom making up 71% of that total.
* 2005 - Isuzu dealers in the United States have only one model, the [[Isuzu Ascender|Ascender]] SUV, with the 2006 [[Isuzu i-Series|i-Series]] bringing that to two. At this point, Isuzu in the United States is primarily a distributor of medium duty trucks such as the NPR series. These vehicles are sourced both from Japan and U.S. plants in Janesville, WI and Flint, MI.

The Ascender is a rebadged GM vehicle with mostly cosmetic differences from the [[GMC Envoy]]/[[Chevrolet TrailBlazer]]/[[Buick Rainier]]/and final version of the [[Oldsmobile Bravada]]. The i-series trucks are rebadged versions of the [[Chevrolet Colorado]]/[[GMC Canyon]] pickup trucks. Those trucks were jointly designed by GM's North American operations, GM do Brasil, and Isuzu; with Isuzu providing the [[chassis]] and GM providing the [[drivetrain]]. Isuzu has 360 dealers in the U.S., and sells an average of just two Ascenders per dealer per month. Plans to introduce a new Thai-built [[Sport utility vehicle|SUV]], expected to be added for 2007, are shelved; American Isuzu explains that a new SUV would be too risky and proceeds with the launch of the i-series trucks. Rumors of Isuzu's withdrawal from the U.S. market are rampant. Despite extremely low sales figures of 12,177 passenger vehicles for 2005 (with leftover Axiom and Rodeos making up 30% of this), Isuzu North America announces its first profit-making in years, mainly due to restructuring cuts and continuing robust sales of commercial trucks.

* 2006 - Production of the 7-passenger Ascender ends in February with the closure of GM's Oklahoma City Assembly plant, leaving Isuzu with the 5-passenger Ascender, built in Moraine, Ohio, and the low-selling i-Series as its only retail products. The company sold just 1,504 vehicles in North America in the first two months of 2006. GM sells its remaining shares in Isuzu, but claims the companies will continue their current relationship. There is no word as of 4/12/2006 on the effect this will have on [[DMAX]] USA operations.

The '''Isuzu F-Series''' medium/heavy duty cab-over trucks are positioned higher in capacity than the N-Series models. The F-Series shares components with the N-Series, but offers a higher payload and Gross Vehicle ratings as well as the more powerful Isuzu 6H engine family. The Isuzu F-Series is marketed towards heavy delivery applications using stake and van bodies. The base model F-Series is the FTR, with a GCWR of 25,950 lbs and either a 170- or 212-in. wheelbase. The mid-payload FVR is available with weight ratings from 25,950- to 35,000-lbs. and a 212-in. wheelbase (140-in. on 35,000 GCWR models). The FXR heavy duty model features a 33,000 lb. GCWR and 250 [[hp]] engine on single rear axle models, and a 56,000 lb. GCWR and 275 [[hp]] engine on tandem rear axle models.

[[Image:6Hengine.jpg|300px|right|thumb]]
The Isuzu 6HK1-TC is a modern common-rail diesel engine used primarily in [[Isuzu F-Series]] trucks, but also in the [[Cheverolet T-Series]] and [[GMC T-Series]]. This engine varied in levels of tune from 200 to 300 horsepower, and from 520 to 860 pound-feet of torque. The durability of this engine is apparent in its B10 rating of 400,000 miles, meaning only 10% of those produced require an overhaul before 400,000 miles.

==6H Features==
*Dry Sleeved Cylinders - Precision machined allows for easy replacement
*Nitrided Crankshaft Heat treatment for durability
*Common Rail Injection, requires less oil
*Internal Piston Cooling Channels

{{List Of Isuzu Models}}

'''Isuzu Motors Ltd.''' (いすゞ自動車株式会社 ''Isuzu Jidōsha Kabushiki-gaisha'') is a Japanese commercial vehicle and heavy truck manufacturer company, headquartered in Tokyo. In 2005, Isuzu was the world's largest manufacturer of medium duty trucks. It has assembly and manufacturing plants in the Japanese city of Fujisawa, as well as in the prefectures Tochigi and Hokkaido. Isuzu is famous for producing commercial vehicles and [[diesel engine]]s - it produced 16 million diesel engines in 2003 alone, which can be found in vehicles all over the world. In addition to making trucks of all sizes, from 1953 to 1993 Isuzu manufactured passenger vehicles in close cooperation with General Motors.

Although best known in the United States for automobiles and SUVs, Isuzu as a corporation has always been primarily a manufacturer of commercial trucks of sizes medium duty and larger.

==History==
* 1916 - Tokyo Ishikawajima Shipbuilding and Engineering Co., Ltd. and Tokyo Gas and Electric Industrial Co. cooperatively plan to build automobiles.
* 1918 - A technical cooperation with Wolseley Motor Company (UK) is initiated. In 1922 the first Wolseley model A-9 car is domestically produced. The CP [[truck]] follows two years later.
* 1933 - Ishikawajima Automotive Works merges with Dot Automobile Manufacturing and changes its name to Automobile Industries Co., Ltd.
* 1934 - A meeting with the Ministry of Trade and Industry results in the renaming of the ''truck'' to '''Isuzu''', after the [[Isuzu River]].
* 1949 - Isuzu is adopted as ''company name''.
* 1953 - With technical assistance of [[Rootes]] (U.K.) the [[Hillman Minx]] passenger car is produced.
* 1971 - A capital agreement with [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] is signed.
* 1972 - The [[Chevrolet LUV]] becomes the first Isuzu-built vehicle to be sold in the United States. It later becomes the [[Chevrolet S-10]], and is twinned with the [[GMC Sonoma|GMC S-15/Sonoma]].
* 1973 - Isuzu introduces the Gemini, which is co-produced with General Motors.
* 1981 - Isuzu-branded consumer and commercial vehicles are successfully exported to the United States. The [[Isuzu P'up]] is the first model sold to consumers.
* 1987 - The joint venture [[Subaru Isuzu Automotive]] Inc. (SIA) is established together with Fuji Heavy Industries, owner of [[Subaru]].
* 1993 - Isuzu stops exporting the Stylus, its last car in America, after ending the Impulse the year before.
* 1996 - Isuzu's sales peak in the United States. Joe Isuzu is popular pitchman with implausible claims, was also hired for the Axiom.
* 1998 - [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] and Isuzu form [[DMAX]], a joint venture to produce [[diesel]] engines.
* 1999 - GM raises its stake in Isuzu to 49%, effectively gaining control of the company.
* 2001 - Isuzu sales begin to slide as the [[Isuzu Rodeo|Rodeo]] and [[Isuzu Trooper|Trooper]] age. Movie Spy kids features Isuzu Axiom and Trooper.
* 2002 - Subaru buys Isuzu's share of US plant. Subaru Isuzu Automotive becomes [[Subaru of Indiana Automotive]].
* August 14, 2002 - General Motors reduces its 49% share in Isuzu to 12% as part of a comprehensive recapitalization of Isuzu. GM also takes full control of [[DMAX]] and [[Isuzu Motors Polska]], with Isuzu losing not just the factories but also ownership of all engine designs.
* 2003 - Isuzu sales were eliminated from the Canadian market. Canadian dealers mostly selling [[Saturn (car)|Saturn]] and [[Saab]] cars drop Isuzu cars from the lineup.
* July 2004 - Production of the Rodeo and [[Isuzu Axiom|Axiom]] stopped. Isuzu sales in North America slow, with just 27,188 vehicles sold in all of 2004, with the cancelled Rodeo and Axiom making up 71% of that total.
* 2005 - Isuzu dealers in the United States have only one model, the [[Isuzu Ascender|Ascender]] SUV, with the 2006 [[Isuzu i-Series|i-Series]] bringing that to two. At this point, Isuzu in the United States is primarily a distributor of medium duty trucks such as the NPR series. These vehicles are sourced both from Japan and U.S. plants in Janesville, WI and Flint, MI.

The Ascender is a rebadged GM vehicle with mostly cosmetic differences from the [[GMC Envoy]]/[[Chevrolet TrailBlazer]]/[[Buick Rainier]]/and final version of the [[Oldsmobile Bravada]]. The i-series trucks are rebadged versions of the [[Chevrolet Colorado]]/[[GMC Canyon]] pickup trucks. Those trucks were jointly designed by GM's North American operations, GM do Brasil, and Isuzu; with Isuzu providing the [[chassis]] and GM providing the [[drivetrain]]. Isuzu has 360 dealers in the U.S., and sells an average of just two Ascenders per dealer per month. Plans to introduce a new Thai-built [[Sport utility vehicle|SUV]], expected to be added for 2007, are shelved; American Isuzu explains that a new SUV would be too risky and proceeds with the launch of the i-series trucks. Rumors of Isuzu's withdrawal from the U.S. market are rampant. Despite extremely low sales figures of 12,177 passenger vehicles for 2005 (with leftover Axiom and Rodeos making up 30% of this), Isuzu North America announces its first profit-making in years, mainly due to restructuring cuts and continuing robust sales of commercial trucks.

* 2006 - Production of the 7-passenger Ascender ends in February with the closure of GM's Oklahoma City Assembly plant, leaving Isuzu with the 5-passenger Ascender, built in Moraine, Ohio, and the low-selling i-Series as its only retail products. The company sold just 1,504 vehicles in North America in the first two months of 2006. GM sells its remaining shares in Isuzu, but claims the companies will continue their current relationship. There is no word as of 4/12/2006 on the effect this will have on [[DMAX]] USA operations.
