Convenient features such as business uses, frequently asked questions and the dealer locater makes choosing and finding a vehicle online very simple.

All diesel engines produced starting January 1, 2007, must comply with the new regulations that require the reduction of nitrogen oxide (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC) and particulate matter (PM) by 90 percent over the current 2004 emissions standards. Isuzu products affected by the new standards are the N-Series low-cab forward vehicles with Isuzu 4H engines, F-Series vehicles with Isuzu 6H diesel engines and H-Series conventional vehicles with Isuzu 6H diesel engines.

Isuzu is committed to staying ahead of the game when it comes to the 2007 emissions regulations. Utilizing their worldwide resources and working with partner General Motors, Isuzu medium-duty trucks with 2007-compliant 4H and 6H diesel engines will deliver optimum performance at the lowest possible cost of ownership. In fact, the 2007 emissions technology has already been operating successfully in over 60,000 Isuzu trucks in Japan for the last two years.
