The four door pickup truck also comes with four wheel drive, a revised suspension setup, longer wheel base as well as a higher ride height to provide better off road capabilities.

Despite the off-road nature of the D-Max V-Cross, its interior comes fully loaded with a high end infotainment system, steering mounted controls, and premium upholstery. Large cup holders, dual golveboxes, illuminated scuff plates only add to the car’s luxury appeal.

The 4×4 heavy duty utility vehicle features the new iGRIP system that allows it to tackle higher speeds with greater stability.

Although the V-Cross’ core focus is that of holding its own under extreme circumstances, the Japanese car maker has opted for front disc brakes only. However, the heavy duty off-roader comes with ABS and EBD along with brake assist and dual front air bags.
