2015 Isuzu D-Max Blade announced

Last year's D-Max Blade special edition was clearly a great success for Isuzu, because it's now returning as a permanent member of the range. The 2015 version is basically the same as the original, but there have been a few minor changes.

Heated front seats, leather upholstery and piano black trim all help to create a more luxurious environment. Touchscreen satellite navigation, a rear reversing camera and an eight-speaker audio system are among the other equipment upgrades.

Distinguished exterior features include a Shadow Grey front grille, door decals, black door mirror caps and a set of Shadow 18” alloy wheels. Furthermore, a soft-close tailgate is fitted and buyers will get to choose from either an Aeroklas hardtop canopy or a Black Mountain roller cover with style bars.

As before, the D-Max Blade is only being offered in 4x4 double cab guise and power is provided by the familiar 160 bhp (120 kW / 163 PS) 2.5 litre twin-turbo diesel engine.

Available to order now, its on the road price (excluding VAT) is £25,999 with a six-speed manual gearbox. Specifying a five-speed automatic transmission instead adds £1,000 to that figure.

The only other cost option is Pearlescent White paintwork for £250, which serves as an alternative to the standard Cosmic Black finish.

Saab 9-3 Aero Carlsson

Image
Saab has got experience of producing special editions in honour of rally driver Erik Carlsson, having previously named versions of the 900 and 9000 after him during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Now it has decided to do it again, this time to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Swedish driver’s first win in Britain’s RAC Rally, which was achieved at the wheel of a Saab 96. Thankfully, the company has resisted the urge to just bung some fancy alloys and a few other extra bits onto something like a mid-range diesel model. Instead, it appears to have resurrected the limited edition Turbo X from a couple of years ago, as the new edition similarly features a turbocharged 2.8 litre petrol V6, Saab’s XWD all-wheel drive system and a six-speed automatic gearbox. The result is the 9-3 Aero Carlsson saloon, which turns out to be a very rapid car. With 276 bhp (205 kW / 280 PS) and a healthy 400 Nm of torque, the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) dash takes just 6.9 seconds. But it’s in the mid-range t...

American spec Fiat 500

Image
Fiat has released the first details and images of the North American specification 500. The tiny city car will be available in Pop, Lounge and Sport trim levels, and is distinguished from the European version by its more aggressive front and rear bumpers, bigger grille and flared sills. Another unique feature is the engine. Fiat has decided to use the 1.4 MultiAir unit currently found in models such as the Fiat Punto Evo and Alfa Romeo MiTo. Perhaps it felt that using the forthcoming two-cylinder TwinAir in the American 500 would have been too much for markets there to take? There’s no word yet on what power output the MultiAir will have, although in its current applications it comes with either 103 bhp (77 kW / 105 PS), 133 bhp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 167 bhp (125 kW / 170 PS). Similarly, prices have yet to be confirmed, but hopefully both details will have been sorted out by the time the order book for the 500 hatch opens later this year. For convertible fans, the 500C is due ...
