For almost 90yrs ,ISUZU
vehicles have been engineered with a passion and dedication to push the
limits of capability, while defining the perceptions of value .As a result, the
ISUZU name is recognized worldwide for its leadership and innovation .In
2000, Isuzu Motors Ltd. continued to hold its position as Japan's largest truck
manufacturer of total combined medium- and heavy-duty trucks categorized by a
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) of at-least 6.1 tons (14,000 lbs) and over 16.1 tons
(33,001 lbs) respectively. Isuzu moved up one rank to number four in the world
market in 2000, compared to its 1999 figures.
Isuzu's ranking modestly improved one place up in 2000 with a slight recovery of
the domestic demand. In 1999, Isuzu was number five due to the recession in
Japan and South East Asia.
In the category of Japanese Heavy Trucks, Isuzu is still the largest
truck manufacturer in Japan, due to its market strength in heavy trucks and the
larger class of N series/Elf light duty.
In the 2000 ranking, there are three U.S. truck manufacturers in the top 10,
while there were five in the 1999 ranking. The U.S heavy duty truck market is
contracting due to the recession that began in 2000.
The C&E Series of heavy-duty trucks and tractor units has been designed under the concept of "Tough and Harmonious." The series offers the ultimate in durability, power and performance, and friendliness to work with the environment and the driver by using low-emission engines and total safety and comfort.
