On the exterior, the RJ-generation mu-X receives a radically updated front bumper, dubbed the “Fighter Jet” look by Isuzu. Alongside the new bumper, there’s a newly designed honeycomb grille with silver trim accents, updated Dynamic Blade LED daytime running lights and headlights, redesigned LED taillights, and fresh alloy wheel designs. Overall, the facelift retains the tough, muscular look of the mu-X while adding a touch of sleek yet aggressive styling. In fact, one might even say the mu-X looks angrier than ever before.
