The Isuzu KB X-rider was launched as a limited edition model in South Africa last year with 700 units. As it turns out the X-rider was popular enough for Isuzu to add it to the permanent line-up and badge it as the KB 250 X-Rider 4×2 Double Cab.
Fitted with a 2.5-litre direct injection turbodiesel mill with an output of 100kW and 320Nm, the X-Rider is priced at R388 400 (R22 020 more than when it launched last year).
It stands out from the rest of the model range with its diamond-cut 18-inch alloys, black bumper guard, integrated fog lamps, tubular side steps, a black sports bar with X-Rider decals, and the blacked out B-pillars. The wheels are shod with low-profile 255/60 Grabber AT all-terrain rubber.
The X-Rider comes with a plush interior that boasts full leather upholstery, highlighted by red stitching and the X-Rider insignia is embroidered on the front headrests.
Piano Black trim is used on the door, air vents, radio and front console and standard features include a towbar, remote keyless entry, satellite controls on the steering wheel and air con.
