Powertrains
Isuzu powertrains have come to symbolize un-
surpassed quality. Diesel engines are more fuel
efficient and emit less CO
2
than gasoline engines,
and our next generation diesel engines build on
these inherent qualities. They are in demand by
several automobile manufacturers in the United
States and Europe for trucks, pickup and cars.
Industrial Engines
The sophisticated features of Isuzu industrial
diesel engines have enabled Isuzu diesels to
meet the changing demands of industry and
an increasing number of companies around the
world. They value Isuzu diesels for their combi-
nation of power, performance and reliability in
industrial applications, and sure-starting depend-
ability in marine use. In Japan, Isuzu leads the
market in sales of stand-alone diesel engines to
other companies.
