Isuzu Australia Limited (IAL) has launched the second, significant phase of its MY25 model range, with a broad selection of light-duty N Series, medium-duty F Series and heavy-duty FY Series variants now on sale across Australia.
This release, a core part of Isuzu’s staged national roll-out, brings key models such as in-demand N Series Ready-to-Work range and multiple F Series configurations to market, expanding options for operators across critical Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) bands.
IAL Director and Chief Operating Officer, Andrew Harbison, said the phase-two milestone was an important step towards having the full MY25 range available for Australian customers.
“We’ve had some excellent feedback following of our stage-one model launch back in July, which encompassed N Series NQR models, a range of six-cylinder FV variants, along with heavy-duty FX models,” he said.
“This next phase is very exciting, as it opens up a significant number of models for Australian operators across a broader range of weight categories in both light and medium duty.
“Of note is the long-awaited release of a large contingent of our N Series Ready-to-Work range, which we know is extremely popular and in high demand.
“Bringing a range of this breadth to market has been a generational task for our production and logistics teams, so together with our dealer partners, we’re extremely pleased to be able to open up even more possibilities for our customers, across a huge range of applications.”
Key N Series highlights:
NLR, NNR, NPR, NMR (4×2) released
GVM range from a car-licence friendly 4,500kg up to 7,000kg
Crew Cab variants and a range of pre-built Ready-to-Work models
Multiple wheelbase options
All new Isuzu 4JZ1 Isuzu 3.0-Litre engine available in 110 kW (150 PS) and 129 kW (175 kW) variants, in front of an all-new 9-Speed dual clutch transmission
From breadth-of-range and class-leading engine and driveline componentry, through to improved cabin appointments, safety enhancements and Isuzu’s aftersales support, the Isuzu N Series positions one of the brand’s core products as the unmatched front-runner for Australia’s light-duty trade, construction and last mile delivery road transport needs.
From November, 2025, Isuzu customers can choose from an extensive list of newly released 4×2 N Series including all-new NLR, NNR, NPR and NMR models.
Across the stage-two N Series roll-out, GVM ratings begin at a driver’s licence friendly 4,500 kilograms, encompassing a large band of vehicles including multiple variations of the NLR, NNR, NMR and NPR models.
Adding to its versatility are a range of vehicle types on offer, including Crew cab variants and a range of pre-built Ready-to-Work models. There’s also selection of wheelbase options available, providing true flexibility and fit-for-purpose end-use across Australian industry at large.
Engine options include two tried and tested Japanese-made, ADR-compliant diesel power-plants with three power outputs that provide the horsepower behind the N Series range.
At the lighter end of the spectrum, various N Series models are equipped with Isuzu’s high torque, fuel efficient, turbocharged and inter-cooled light weight 4JZ1 engine, available with two power ratings, the TCS, which produces 110 kW (150 PS) at 2,800rpm, and the TCH as found in some NPR models outputting 129 kW or 175 PS.
Rounding-out engine options in the N Series range is the higher output 4HK1-TCH engine providing 190 horsepower or 140 kilowatts at 2,600rpm, which can be found in the NPR 70-190 models, matching the output of the NQR range released earlier in 2025.
Specified to reliably straddle the model line-up, these three engine variants complete a specification focused on efficiency, performance and responsible emissions management.
N Series transmissions
Select models within the N Series 4×2 line-up now come equipped with Isuzu’s brand new MYR9S 9-speed dual clutch automated manual transmission, available on units powered by the 4JZ1 engine.
Designed and developed in-house by Isuzu engineers, this patented dual-clutch transmission features a wet clutch design producing smaller full-power gear steps along with a double overdrive 8th and 9th gear for almost unnoticeable shifting.
The MYR9S shifter also has a ‘P for park’ position with a park pawl for added ease of use and parking convenience.
The NPR models with 4HK1 engine remain with Isuzu’s two-pedal automated manual transmission, with improved electronics and shift quality, designed and engineered specifically for trucking applications, while manual transmissions can also be specified across most N Series models.

Tradepack, Servicepack, Tipper and 4×4 variants to be released in 2026

Far and away its most popular offering, Isuzu has consistently honed its Ready-to-Work offering to accommodate just about every application imaginable.
