Isuzu NPR FAQs

• Is the Isuzu NPR reliable?

  This is one car that undoubtedly hits the brief if you're in the market for a reliable truck. It is built to the highest standards, fitted with quality parts and components, and also has a dependable and robust engine pulling all the strings. So it doesn't matter if you have lightweight duties in mind, or heavyweight tasks for that matter, the Isuzu NPR can stand up tall and go the distance in the process. If you're not convinced, just ask any truck driver who sits behind the wheel of an NPR and you'll be a convert.

• What engine is in an Isuzu NPR?

  The NPR's boasts a 6.0-litre Vortec V8 engine, and is paired with an efficient six-speed automatic transmission. Take note, however, buyers might not be able to find this particular version down under, as Isuzu instead pushed the turbo 5.2L intercooled diesel engine. Under the latter, the Isuzu NPR could produce up to 215 brake horsepower and up to 452 pounds per foot of torque. Those are some strong numbers in anyone's book.

• What does NPR stand for on a Isuzu truck?

  Most car brands are using acronyms these days when designating names for their range of cars, let alone particular models. In the case of Isuzu, the brand relies on a very simple three-letter acronym for some of its most-popular trucks. If you've been wandering what the NPR model stands for, then you should know it is an abbreviation for "Nippon People's Rig", tying in with Isuzu's Japanese heritage.
