Isuzu mu-X, D-Max perform tough tasks in 4×4 Action Playground Cebu event
Isuzu Philippines Corp. (IPC) gave Cebuanos a glimpise of what its 4-wheel-drive vehicles can do when it held the Isuzu 4×4 Action Playground in Cebu last weekend at the SM City Cebu north open parking area.
Spectators were amazed with how the event showed off the capabilities of the four-wheel-drive 3.0-liter variants of the Isuzu mu-X midsize sports utility vehicle and the D-Max pickup truck.
Both models, which are Isuzu’s top-selling vehicles, tackled an obstacle course that consists of the 40-degree angle Transverse Ramp, Articulation Ramp and the jaw-dropping 30-foot-high Thrill Hill.
The Cebu leg was the third stop this year after stints at the Exploreum Parking Area of the SM Mall of Asia in Pasay last April and at Donato Piston Avenue, San Rafael, Mandurriao, Iloilo City last June.
