05 / FAQ

Questions people ask

Does every 2025 D-Max tow the same?

Yes: all 21 configurations Isuzu lists for 2025 are rated 3,500 kg.

What is the max tongue weight of the 2025 Isuzu D-Max?

350 kg for every configuration that publishes it. Tongue weight is the trailer’s downward push on the hitch; it counts against payload.

What is the GCWR of the 2025 Isuzu D-Max?

5,850–6,000 kg by configuration; the most is 6,000 kg, for the SX Single Cab Chassis 3.0L 4JJ3-TCX turbo-diesel 4x4. GCWR is the most the loaded vehicle and its loaded trailer may weigh together.

Has the Isuzu D-Max’s towing capacity changed by year?

Highest rating by model year: 2025, 3,500 kg; 2024, 3,500 kg; 2023, 3,500 kg; 2022, 3,500 kg; 2021, 3,500 kg.

Does four-wheel drive change the 2025 D-Max’s towing capacity?

No: Isuzu rates each configuration the same with either drive (7 pairs in its table).

Does the engine change the 2025 D-Max’s towing capacity?

Not at the top: the 3.0L 4JJ3-TCX turbo-diesel and 2.2L RZ4F-TC turbo-diesel are each rated up to 3,500 kg in their best configuration.

These are Isuzu’s published ratings, not a weighbridge. Your own vehicle’s GVWR and axle ratings are on its certification label, and only a scale tells you what your loaded rig weighs. Found a figure that doesn’t match the document? Tell us.
