You have seen it here first! This is the new Isuzu D-Max Spark that is sold in our neighboring country across the sea, Thailand. The pick up truck will be replacing the standard single cab D-Max in India. While it could also be positioned above the regular D-Max. The front design on this updated pick up truck is more in line with the D-Max V-Cross and comes across as a toned down version.

Very recently the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross facelift was revealed in Thailand. The car got more dashes of chrome on the front grille, fog lamps along with a new headlamp cluster with LED DRLs that lends it an overall aggressive look. On the insides, there are no major changes but there is an updated touchscreen infotainment system and new brown colour for the seat upholstery. These updates will be seen on the D-Max V-Cross to be launched at a future date.
