Isuzu MU-X 2021's global premiere in the Kingdom of Thailand
Isuzu has just released its highly anticipated next-generation MU-X——Isuzu Mu-X 2021.

The side profile features a curved rear window design that gives the illusion of a coupé-like roofline. If you go back you will see a large Isuzu badge on the tailgate. There are also a pair of sleek LED taillights that give off an amazing glow at night. The top-end variants include an electric tailgate and automatic high beam for the LED headlights.
