The winners, Mr Hiew and Ms Maria in the 3.0 and 2.5-litre D-Max’s achieved 13.02 and 14.20-litres respectively over coastal road conditions with heavy trucks present during their journey. Mr Hiew managed to clock in an impressive 21.50 km per litre and Ms Maria 19.72 km/l, the best figures thus far amongst all three legs of the Challenge.

 

“From year to year, our D-Max innovation and evolution has made it a preferred pick-up truck for motorists due to its performance, comfort, dependability and fuel efficiency. To push our product limits, we did out third attempt to test our D-Max fuel efficiency in Dura-Miles Challenge in 2015. We drove from Bangkok and travelled across 3 countries in 4 days with just one full tank of diesel. The distance of 1,809 km was covered and averaged 24 km per litre of fuel. Thus far, our D-Max has never failed to impress us in terms of its economical fuel consumption,” said Masayuki Suzuki, COO of Isuzu Malaysia.
