| Isuzu
has had a good name in the diesel engine field since its
predecessor developed Japan's first air-cooled automotive
diesel engine in 1936. The company's history is highly respected
because of not only its length but also its abundant fruits
in responding to ever-changing demands of the market as
well as of society.
With its technological edge, Isuzu has kept
setting the pace for the industry in developing fuel-efficient
and low-emission diesel engines. As a result, Isuzu excelled
over other companies in the introduction of a direct-injection
system and turbocharger incorporated with an intercooler
and electronically controlled common-rail high pressure
fuel injection system.
If it were not for their excellent reliability
and durability, Isuzu diesels could not be used at the Japanese
base for the national expedition program in Antarctica,
nor could OEM-basis supply of automotive and industrial
models to other companies have increased.
Isuzu is now ranked among the world's largest
diesel engine manufacturers along with Peugeot-Citroen Group
and Volkswagen. The company currently manufactures about
60 diesel engine models for a broad spectrum of industrial
applications as well as for powering vehicles, ranging from
a 1,000 cc class unit used in a mini-backhoe to a 30-liter
class powerhouse for heavy-duty tractors.
In fact, General Motors Corporation, the world's
largest automobile manufacturer and a close partner of Isuzu,
has placed Isuzu principally in charge of diesel engine
development in the global GM Group, clear evidence of the
trust Isuzu has earned as a world leader in diesel technology.
Diesel engines are attracting attention for their fuel efficiency
and durability. Especially, in Europe, diesel-powered passenger
cars are increasing dramatically, reflecting the world's
growing demand for diesels. Even in USA where diesels are
not popular historically, public interest toward fuel efficient
and clean diesels is rapidly growing. Isuzu has a global
diesel engine supply network that encompasses Europe, North
America, Japan and other parts of Asia. No diesel manufacturer
in the world other than Isuzu has global production and
sales network.
Companies around the world have chosen Isuzu
diesel engines as indispensable partners for their businesses.
They value Isuzu diesels for their combination of power,
performance and reliability. In the marine market, users
choose Isuzu engines for their sure-starting dependability.
Customers also like the fact that Isuzu's advanced technology
is continually raising the standards for low-noise, low-pollution
industrial diesels.
