2026 Isuzu V-Cross Launched at Rs 25.50 Lakh

Isuzu has introduced the updated 2026 V-Cross pickup truck in India. 

The lifestyle-oriented model now starts at ₹25.50 lakh and goes up to ₹30.28 lakh (all ex-showroom). 

This update brings styling tweaks, more features and a key change in the drivetrain lineup. The V-Cross is now exclusively a 4x4, as the 4x2 option has been discontinued. 

As a result, its starting price has risen by about ₹1.23 lakh compared to the previous 4x2 model.

Exterior changes include a revised front grille with black surrounds on higher trims, updated bumpers that are more subtle and body-coloured, and new alloy wheel designs. It comes in seven colour options.

The Z Prestige variants get 18-inch diamond-cut wheels, while the Z Standard has 16-inch steel wheels. The wheel-arch cladding has been removed, LED blinkers on ORVMs are slimmer, and chrome trim on the rear bumper is replaced with gloss black plastic.

Inside, the cabin gains premium touches, especially in top variants. Brown leatherette trim appears on door liners and the dashboard for a more upscale feel.

The Z Prestige features a larger 10.3-inch floating touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Other additions include a 360-degree camera, TPMS, and an 8-speaker surround sound system. 

The 2026 V-Cross retains the proven 1.9-litre diesel engine. It produces 163 hp and 360 Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. 

A new auto-locking differential comes standard across all variants for better off-road capability.

The V-Cross targets adventure seekers and lifestyle buyers, and will continue to rival the Toyota Hilux in the premium pickup segment.
