Isuzu MU-X 'Tour Mate' Special Edition Returns: Levelled-Up Towing And Touring For 25.5MY

Australia’s thirst for adventure has been a decisive factor in Isuzu UTE Australia’s (IUA) establishment among the country’s 10 best-selling automakers. With outdoor lifestyle continuing to drive choice, IUA is responding to demand in the brand’s best-selling seven-seat SUV range by reintroducing the towing-ready special edition MU-X TOUR MATE for the 25.5MY.

Following a successful debut for the MU-X TOUR MATE in 2024, the value-packed 25.5MY MU-X LS-T 4x4 TOUR MATE joins the popular D-MAX TOUR MATE as IUA’s ultimate companion for off-road towing and exploring. Equipped with a package of commonly selected optional genuine towing accessories worth almost $9,000 when fitted, the Isuzu MU-X LS-T 4x4 TOUR MATE is available now at participating Dealerships nationwide from just $79,990 drive away*. That equates to the TOUR MATE package offering more than $7,600 worth of savings on the MU-X LS-T 4X4.

Built on the top-spec MU-X LS-T 4x4, the ‘TOUR MATE’ badged special edition is powered by Isuzu’s legendary 140kW/450Nm 3.0-litre turbo-diesel engine via a commanding and capable dual-range 4x4 drivetrain.

The TOUR MATE’s touring and towing inclusions consist of frontal protection by way of a Satin Black Steel Bull Bar1 with integrated Parking Sensors and Fog Lights, Tow Bar Kit with 50mm Ball, 12-pin Flat Wiring Harness, Electric Brake Controller, Front & Rear Slimline Weathershields, Rear Cargo Liner, Rubber Floor Mats2 and Wireless charger.

Also featuring leather-accented§ upholstery and 20-inch Alloy Wheels, the MU-X TOUR MATE is replete with standard features including Idle Stop-Start (ISS), Variably heated Front Seats, and a 9" Touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®.

“With the MU-X TOUR MATE having been tremendously well received last year, we are delighted to be able to return to market with an updated version of our most capable touring and towing model yet,” said Isuzu UTE Australia Managing Director, Mr Junta Matsui.

“The MU-X TOUR MATE represents exceptional value as a reliable, rugged, and refined vehicle for customers ready to experience the best of the Australian lifestyle, allowing them to go their own way the moment they leave the Dealership.”

The 25.5MY MU-X TOUR MATE is available in seven colours including Mercury Silver metallic, Moonstone White pearl, Mineral White, Obsidian Grey mica, Magnetic Red mica, Cobalt Blue mica, and Basalt Black mica. Australia’s 15th best-selling car overall in 2024, the Isuzu MU-X has long been lauded by customers and automotive experts alike for winning combination of its value, versatility, and reliability.

The MU-X won Wheels Magazine’s prestigious 'Best Value 4X4 SUV' award as part of the inaugural Wheels ‘Best Large SUV’ awards last year, with Editor Andy Enright declaring “the Isuzu MU-X beat everything else out of sight”. Offering customers peace of mind when on the road, the Isuzu MU-X TOUR MATE is backed by IUA’s comprehensive ‘Service Plus’ customer care program, encompassing a five-year Flat Price Servicing> program at $469 per year/15,000km intervals, a six-year/150,000km Warranty^, and up to seven-years of Roadside Assistance<.
