Isuzu announced the launch of the Automatic variant of the MU-7 SUV at Rs 23.9 lakh (ex-Showroom, Delhi) today.
In addition to the automatic transmission, the new variant has also received changes to the interior in the form of a two-tone dashboard. The car now also employs steering-mounted audio controls on the new three-spoke wheel. In terms of features, the MU-7 AT has a new infotainment system from Kenwood which incorporates satellite navigation and the new rear-view camera. The Automatic variant also comes with reverse parking sensors.
The MU-7 AT is powered by the same 3.0-litre in-line four-cylinder turbo-diesel, but in automatic guise puts out a maximum torque of 333 Nm between 1,600 and 3,200 RPM.
