Isuzu UTE Australia (IUA) is bringing back its adventure-ready MU-X ‘Tour Mate’ Special Edition for the 25.5 model year — this time with even more muscle for towing and touring.
Based on the flagship LS-T 4×4, the new Tour Mate packs a suite of genuine accessories valued at nearly $9,000, bundled into a ready-to-roll package that saves buyers more than $7,600. Priced from $79,990 drive-away, it’s available now at Isuzu UTE dealerships nationwide.
Built for the towing crowd
The MU-X Tour Mate retains Isuzu’s proven 3.0-litre turbo-diesel engine (140kW/450Nm) paired with a six-speed auto and dual-range 4×4 system capable of towing up to 3.5 tonnes (braked). The special edition comes factory-equipped with:
- Satin black steel bull bar (or optional alloy) with integrated fog lights and parking sensors
- Tow bar kit with 50mm ball
- 12-pin wiring harness and electronic brake controller
- Wireless charger, rubber floor mats, cargo liner and slimline weathershields
That’s in addition to the LS-T’s long list of standard features, from leather-accented seats and 20-inch alloys to IDAS advanced safety tech, idle stop-start, and a 9-inch infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Designed for Australian adventures
Isuzu UTE Australia Managing Director Junta Matsui said the Tour Mate is about giving customers the freedom to hit the road, fully equipped:
“The MU-X Tour Mate represents exceptional value as a reliable, rugged, and refined vehicle for customers ready to experience the best of the Australian lifestyle, allowing them to go their own way the moment they leave the Dealership.”
Available in seven colours — including Magnetic Red, Basalt Black, and Moonstone White Pearl — the Tour Mate continues Isuzu’s reputation for building vehicles that balance toughness with comfort.
Peace of mind for fleets and families
For Fleet Managers and recreational drivers alike, Isuzu’s Service Plus program adds extra value with:
- Six-year/150,000km warranty
- Five-year capped-price servicing at $469 per year/15,000km
- Up to seven years’ roadside assistance
It’s a compelling package for those who want a capable touring SUV that’s ready to tow boats, caravans, or trailers straight from the showroom.
