The Isuzu Traviz can drive over 1,000 KM with a single full tank

With the rising cost of fuel prices, one of the most affected sectors is logistics. With that, businesses need a fuel-efficient vehicle to move their products or whatever needs to be transported and the Isuzu Traviz might have just proven that it is one of, if not the best choice.

Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) recently concluded a fuel economy run together with the Automobile Association of the Philippines (AAP), dubbed as the Isuzu One Full Tank Challenge where they drove the Isuzu Traviz and Isuzu NLR85E from La Union to Pagbilao, Quezon.

As the number 1 truck brand in the country, we try to provide the best business solutions to our customers, and with the rising fuel prices, we offer to them our most fuel-efficient variants. The Isuzu One Full Tank Challenge is our way to test and prove our trucks’ excellent fuel economy, which is why we would like to as much as possible test the efficiency of our truck under normal driving conditions, carrying weight and passing through cities and highways. The results are truly impressive, it somehow suggests the optimum numbers our customers can get if they practice good driving habits on the road,” said IPC President Hajime Koso.

From Isuzu La Union, the trucks traveled with just one full tank carrying a weight equivalent to 100kgs for the Traviz and 500kgs for the NLR85E. Driving towards the north, the participants drove all the way to Pagudpud, then down to Cagayan on its first day. The next day, the trucks traveled farther south before settling the night in Clark, Pampanga. With little fuel left at the start of the third day, the trucks cleared through NLEX and SLEX before making their final stop at Pagbilao, Quezon.

Running on its tried and tested 4JA1 Blue Power diesel engine, the Isuzu Traviz has a fuel tank capacity of 50-liters. At the end of the run, the Traviz was able to traverse a total distance of 1,063 km.

Equally impressive is the Isuzu NLR85E, which is one of the company’s most popular variants, that took longer on the road covering a total of 1,234kms. Running on a common-rail direct injection 4JJ1-TCC Blue Power engine with a larger 75-liter fuel tank capacity.

This edition of the Isuzu Challenge truly shows Isuzu’s advancement in terms of diesel engine technology, our trucks are well-known to be durable and fuel efficient which is manifested by the impressive results of this Challenge. On top of that, we continue to advocate economic and safety driving so that our customers can reap the overall benefits of driving their Isuzu trucks,” said IPC Asst. Division Head, Robert Carlos.
