TowTimes Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Isuzu Commercial Truck of America, Inc. has announced start-of-production dates for the 2023 model-year editions of its N-Series gasoline- and diesel-powered trucks. Isuzu’s 2023 gasoline-powered N-Series Class 3 and 4 models receive many of the enhancements introduced on the 2022i N-Series diesel trucks including four-wheel disc brakes, exterior cab refresh and interior color scheme enhancements. Class 3 and 4 Isuzu N-Series trucks are powered by a direct-injected 6.6-liter V8 engine with variable valve timing that generates 350 horsepower and 425 lbs.-ft. of torque. They are available in standard and crew cab configurations with GVWRs from 12,000 to 14,500 lbs. and wheelbases ranging from 109 to 176 inches to accommodate bodies from 10 to 20 feet in length. Assembly of 2023 N-Series gas models will begin in April 2022 in Charlotte, Michigan. For the 2023 N-Series diesel models, an optional package was added to the factory-installed Isuzu Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) introduced for the 2022i model-year N-Series diesel: Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), which allows the driver to set both a desired speed and following distance from the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead slows, the system automatically slows the truck to maintain the pre-set following distance—and then accelerates to the originally set speed once the vehicle ahead speeds up, or the lane is clear. Class 4 and 5 Isuzu N-Series diesel trucks are powered by Isuzu’s 5.2-liter 4HK1-TC turbocharged, intercooled four-cylinder diesel engine with four valves per cylinder and direct injection. It produces 215 horsepower and 452 lb.-ft. of torque. They are available in standard and crew cab, with GVWRs from 14,500 to 19,500 lbs. and wheelbases ranging from 109 to 212 inches for bodies from 10 to 24 feet in length. Production of 2023 N-Series diesel models began in January 2022 at the Isuzu Motors Limited manufacturing plant in Fujisawa, Japan.
