- The Isuzu D-Max BEV Concept was first revealed last year and is now being showcased in India promising an electrified future for the pick-up truck.

The concept looks similar to the road-going version barring the blue highlights and revised grille that denote its electric powertrain. The company says the D-Max BEV concept has the same payload capacity as its diesel counterpart. Interestingly, the D-Max EV Concept is siad to have been primarily designed for the European market, with an initial launch planned in 2025 in regions like Norway.
Following this, the D-Max BEV will be rolled out to other markets, including Thailand, the UK, Australia, and additional countries, depending on market demand and the progress of EV charging infrastructure in those areas. Powering the concept is a 66.9 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Meanwhile, power comes from two electric motors, one on each axle.
