Availability and Market Scope

The launch event will take place at the 2025 Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham, UK. Pre-sales began on July 21, 2025. Customer deliveries are scheduled to start in February 2026. The main markets for the vehicle are the UK, Norway, and some other parts of Europe.

Before launching in India, Isuzu must first localize its manufacturing process to reduce costs. Expanding charging stations in semi-urban areas is also essential. Additionally, the vehicle’s payload and towing capacities need to match the needs of Indian farms and businesses.
