2014 NPR ECO-MAX
The allowable frontal area of the popular 12,000-lb. GVWR
NPR ECO-MAX has been increased for the 2014 model year
from 6.92 square meters to 7.4 square meters (7.86 square meters
with air deflector). As a result, non-air-deflector equipped models
can now handle bodies with inside heights of up to 85 inches (an
increase of six inches) without application approval from Isuzu.
Meanwhile, models equipped with the air deflector can accom-
modate bodies with inside heights of up to 91 inches with Isuzu
application approval.
In addition, the 151-inch wheelbase ECO-MAX model
offers a dual fuel tank option for the first time. The additional
tank is side mounted and carries 33 gallons of fuel. Although pric-
ing has not yet been announced, it is expected to be equivalent
to the dual fuel tank option already available on Isuzu NPR-HD,
NQR and NRR models.
The NPR ECO-MAX and all 2014 and 2015 Isuzu N-Series
diesel models, receive a new AM/FM stereo radio with CD
player. The new system includes simplified controls and a stan-
dard auxiliary jack input and USB port to accommodate the latest
audio technology.
2015 NPR-HD, NQR and NRR
All 2015 NPR-HD, NQR and NRR models offer new
19.5-inch Bridgestone M895 low rolling resistance tires for
improved fuel efficiency without sacrificing strength or durabil-
ity. M895 tires incorporate stone ejector design that helps pro-
tect against stone drilling for enhanced casing durability, closed
shoulder design for increased wear life, dual sidewall protector
that resists cuts and scrapes, and reinforced steel casing for long
life and retreadability.
For the new 2015 model year, the 4J 3.0-liter 4 cylinder
turbo-diesel engine will adopt the Denso air conditioning
compressor already found on the legendary Isuzu 4H 5.2-liter
4 cylinder turbo-diesel engine.
Standard on all 2015 NPR-HD, NQR and NRR models is
the same state-of-the-art audio system also featured on the 2014
NPR ECO-MAX.
