Best Value For Money Bakkie In SA 2024 Isuzu X Rider Review, Cost of ownership

[@tebogoramathibela4325]

Beef up the reviews a little. Tell us upfront about the engine size, power and torque. Average Fuel consumption? Is it 2WD or 4x4? How does it handle various terrains, mud, gravel, hill climb-nyana? Get a sound level meter and show us how noisy it is. Do a 0-100 to show how sluggish the 1.9 liter may be. Would you biy it? So much could have been said about this car to educate and inform potential buyers.

[@Henniesmennie]

Yes and he shows the front seats with his reflective vest still around the seat so you can't see the shape of the seat properly. And the plastic engine cover is clearly loose when he makes a video of the engine. Makes the whole thing appear flimsy while we know an Isuzu isn't flimsy.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@Henniesmennie It wasn’t lose. What you’re seeing in the video is how that engine cover is.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@tebogoramathibela4325 Fuel consumption I covered that. Drivetrain I covered that. Various terrains sure could be better and covered but I unfortunately don’t cover that specific part in all my reviews because this isn’t my car so it’s a press car I have to be careful where I go and what I do with the vehicle to avoid damage and all of that. 0 - 100 I need a test track for me to safely cover that. I unfortunately can’t do that on public roads. Would I buy it ? Yes and I did cover that in the review too. I hope you understand.

I have the previous gen X-Rider. The new one looks great, but they could have given the full size Media screen like in the LSE model at that price point.

could you please do a lexus ES 250 review, features, driving comfort, fuel economy and cost of ownership

[@phedishonchabeleng9422]

My current favourite bakkie

[@lionelarnolds1749]

It is not i as in iPhone but Isuzu. I like your reviews my man and keep on doing the good work Nicky.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@lionelarnolds1749 Thank you very much 🙏🏾❤️

[@MilionareBee]

Good vehicle with old school vibes, i do feel that the 1.9td engine is js lacking and can test patience when one decides to do some heavy lifting

[@Callmesmirk]

Definitely great value for money!!

[@maxlodewyk_na]

Please do check out the Mitsubishi Triton, I know tech is lagging, but its also good value for money.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@maxlodewyk_na I will reach out to Mitsubishi when the Triton is available for Media Drives 🙏🏾

[@KhomotsoLeshaba]

The right pronunciation is ISUZU not Isuzu 😆 Thanks for a great review of this favourite bakkie

[@ChristianMhlongo-tm7oy]

I don't know man, I just love the Isuzu engine grunt

[@mfundontlombe4359]

it's always horses for courses ... some of us just want a bakkie because of the rugged looks and day to day commute - no load lugging whatsoever... okay, maybe the dogs and a few pieces of firewood. For some guys, the wife obstructs the gearlever in the VW Polo, and we're forced to upgrade. For me, this bakkie is enough to save the day, if necessary, and to say "I drive a bakkie".. I'd take it without the 4x4 exactly for the reason above...

[@lehlohonolofaku3178]

Love the Car Damn

[@mosimanegapemasike113]

I wish you could do a comparison with the Toyota Raider X (2.4 GD6) model which is a direct competition for the X rider and both delivers out put of 110 KW of power. The Bakkie looks good and it is very fuel efficient but the ride quality not so much. It feels the the Toyota Legend 35, the ride is too old school, the steering wheel is a bit heavy compared to your Hilux or Ranger. If they could improve the ride quality or adjust the suspension and the weight on that steering wheel, i will take it in grey, looks better.

[@MrsBnoks]

Great reviews please consider showing us vehicle keys please

We need an update on your Golf MK1 grootman

@@rkitleli It’s currently in hibernation, but don’t worry I will do something on it 🙏🏾

[@malusimsomi2839]

Solid car. Needs a bit of oomph, but that would take away from its fuel efficiency.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@malusimsomi2839 yeah that’s true indeed

[@houseatview]

he reason why they don't include wireless car play is because it's not good for phone's batterie's health... look it up

Nice video, thanks 🇦🇺

[@nwabisajordan]

What bakkie would you buy for R500k with aloy of towing to keep for the next 6 years

[@mjsphamandla6900]

Thanks for the review dope bakkie Can you do a review of the new Toyota Hilux 2.4gd6

[@thabomashavha3970]

Je vhasa ndi a ḓala nga maanḓa nga heyo thundu. I drove Gen 6 X-Rider and I enjoyed it. This is even better when I compare the specs.... huge leap in terms of upgrades. Fuel efficiency is a big-plus for me. There isn't a big deal in the power difference between 3L and 1.9L if the bakkie will be used to run errands and do non-excessive load bearing work. This thing looks stunning. It deserves its flowers and I have a feeling it will give Hilux and Rangers a run for their money. Hit me up man, I wanna work with you and get into the car review work 🙏🏿

[@mdumelathemba1737]

I'm a bit confused. There is this other Isuzu advertised on internet with the indicator moved to the headlamp as 2024, and this one also is 2024. Actually which one is 2024. Secondly, between this X raider and 3.0 LSE which one is the best.

[@Skip0607]

Great review as always👌 Isuzu X rider is a great bakkie, but with my imaginary money 😅😅 i will get a Nissan Navara Pro2X personally i don't mind the boring interior.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@Skip0607 Thank you 🙏🏾 Great bakkie that one as well 🔥

[@makgobakagisho3140]

Great Review Nicki, Have You Also Covered Navara Pro 4X? I Caught Between This X Rider and Navara...Please Do Cover The Review If You Haven't✌✊

[@Terrorvilla]

It is said "ee-suzu" not "I- suzu" Japanese say words as we do... Next thing o tlabe o re "I-ran" instead of Iran..

[@katlehomatsaneng-zo9zf]

Well it’s quite a bakkie this one, I can live with its practicalities, the price? Yha it’s good but I’m lil bid in between with its rival the LDV T60, can we have it next time on review? I’d like to be precise on my choice 😂😅, enjoyed this review thanks 🙏🏽 again 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@katlehomatsaneng-zo9zf Thank you for watching. I will reach out to LDV for the T60 🙏🏾

[@t-manmafisa1144]

Please test drive JAC T9

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@t-manmafisa1144 Will do 🙏🏾

[@africanotomotiv]

The Japanese language is phonetic. Therefore, the name is pronounced "i-suzu" and not 'I-suzu' ('instant' as opposed to 'ice').

[@williamwatson4110]

Is the 4x4 a good buy

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@williamwatson4110 yes

On how to pronounce the name of the bakkie, I think that needs a voice note lol. Typing sounds the same tomato tomato....

[@Shai_Ntontela]

It's not Isuzu it's Isuzu hope you get the difference

[@TheMsyZa]

" 3:04 Ee-soo-zoo"

[@tulongahenoch3422]

1300km doing 100km/h only?

[@200715275]

Nice review. At that price point it's the best good looking bakkie. In fact the X-Rider is a better-looking bakkie than top range Hilux or Navara. It only loses out on Wildtrak and Aventura.

[@veekay28]

Nissan Pro4x Automatic is more value for money than this 🤞🏽

[@RaineJizzle]

It's pronounced isisuzo because it blew me away.😅
