The Isuzu D-MAX extended its impressive performance in the 2024 Philippine Rallycross Series, excelling in Round 5 at the challenging CDS Offroad Playground within Arden Botanical Estate last Saturday, May, 25. Champion rally driver Louie Camacho skillfully piloted the D-MAX to victory in both the UV Class and Pick-up Class, reinforcing its leading status in the series.

Competing against the likes of the Toyota Rav4 and the Ford Ranger Raptor, the D-MAX proved that it’s a durable and powerful machine that’s up for the challenge. On his second run for the pickup class, Louie Camacho was able to bag the fastest lap time of 2.22 minutes on the two-kilometer dirt track. The Isuzu D-MAX currently leads the UV Class with 123.5 points, outpacing six competitors, and tops the Pick-up Class with 137.5 points, ahead of five contenders.

Speaking on the D-MAX’s abilities, Louie Camacho said, “We are very much impressed by the power and performance that the D-MAX can provide while on the track. You can actually feel that this vehicle is designed for this kind of motorsport and can even go through more challenging tracks. With little modifications on its tires and wheels, we are able to create a champion on the dirt track.”
