CERRITOS, CA – Isuzu Commercial Truck of America now offers the 2008 gas-powered Isuzu N-Series low-cab forward trucks. The new model features the Vortec 6.0L V-8 engine with 325 horsepower (up from 300 horsepower previously) and a Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission with lockup torque converter and overdrive.
With a choice of four wheelbases, the trucks can accommodate 10-20-ft. body lengths and body/payload combinations ranging from 6,829 to 9,411 lbs. GVW ratings remain at 12,000 and 14,500 lbs. A new Hexacube cab offers increased headroom, shoulder room, and legroom. Storage abounds in the driver seat back, dashboard, glove box, overhead storage shelves, and rear storage organizer. Map pockets are built into the new, fully trimmed door panels.
To further aid driver convenience, the N-Series also features a new dashboard with a full complement of easy-to-see gauges and warning lamps. A 5-DIN opening can accommodate such optional equipment as radios, GPS systems, and rear-view cameras. Additional safety items found on the 2008 N-Series include: a new seat belt design; low-cut side windows; larger, 17-inch by eight-inch side mirrors with integrated convex sections; and available heated mirrors.
The cab also has greater rust and corrosion protection from the galvanized steel panels to the electro deposit paint primer and high-quality enamel paint topcoat. The close-section construction and increased gussets improve durability, as well as increasing driver and passenger safety.
