Exterior
The 2014 models feature a stylish new body as well as new chassis.

The new model features a longer wheelbase to offer additional cabin space. While it resembles Holden Colorado Ute, the Isuzu D-Max is a more attractive. Its assembly line is different and so calling D-Max a redesigned Colorado is far off base.
