Isuzu D-Max Arctic Trucks AT35 – UK’s most extreme

Isuzu-DMax-Arctic-Trucks-AT35-1

This is the Isuzu D-Max Arctic Trucks AT35, billed as the most extreme pick-up truck ever sold through a UK franchised dealer network. Order books open late this month.

The AT35 is the result of a partnership between Isuzu UK and Arctic Trucks, an expert in vehicles designed and built specifically to overcome the wild terrain of northern Scandinavia and Russia. The D-Max will be the first Arctic Trucks pick-up in the UK that can be ordered directly from a manufacturer’s dealer network.

Equipped with giant 35-inch all-terrain Nokian Rotiiva AT tyres wrapped around 17-inch wheels, re-engineered suspension with Fox Performance Series shocks, 290 mm ground clearance (125 mm higher), and “rut-busting approach, ramp and departure angles,” the AT35 is “engineered to excel in the most arduous terrain and will meet the most demanding challenges from farmers and other rural workers, those in the construction industry, and adventurous thrill-seekers alike.” Those fender flares are cool, too.

Available in two body configurations – extended-cab and double-cab – the 163 PS/400 Nm 2.5 litre twin-turbodiesel Isuzu comes with a comprehensive accessories list that allows customers to spec their AT35 according to their unique requirements, with each unit being built to order.

Malaysia had a limited-edition D-Max Artic too, with funny spelling and no relations to Arctic Trucks. The latest local special edition is the Beast, launched in May.

    • Cheat? All type of variants has different features and styles. Vigo itself also have so many face-lift then TRD then TRD with strip. this is for boost marketing as well. Business strategies, you just cannot keep maintain the same trend for years driving an old SR for decades.

    All the variations are pure marketing ploys. Nonetheless, the engine and the truck drives well. No regrets owning one.
