Is it's to give for indian

I've had my 2021 BT 50 XTR for a year now. I bought it new for 55k. My parents just recently bought a new V6 Ford Ranger XLT for 73k. Let's put it this way, with the 20k difference in the pricing, I've added wheels, AT tyres, bullbar, winch, custom made ally tray, a canopy, spotlights, full length bash plate, a catch can, a stainless snorkel, and other various smaller items... 20k goes a long way in terms of mods. The Ranger is beautiful to ride in and is no doubt a refined vehicle, but for 10-20k more than the competitors? I don't think it's good value for money compared to other options, unless you really want the V6 and rear disc brakes for towing like my parentals.

Heard 2 reasons for it! the tub bar was to minimize roof crushing during roll over, mostly seen in rock climbing groups.. In African countries it's for not damaging the body work when carrying logs or pipes etc.. You can put weighted stuff against it, the African version makes sense to me

Good review !

I have bt-50 sp I love it great travel car too

Those bull bar/front bars absolutely destroy the car

The Mazda BT50 is sort of the forgotten ute but what l found interesting they share the same engine as that is in the Isuzu D max l dolike Mazdas and have owned two of them and one was a 2004 Mazda Bravo rwd ute

Hi Matt great review of the mazda BT-50. I’m currently looking at purchasing a mazda bt-50 tf xtr or the Mitsubishi tirton mr gsr. Really torn between them both 😅 what are your thoughts? Which one would you lean towards more. Thankyou & keep up the great work 😊.

Hello! If it were me personally, I would take the BT-50 - it’s a better all rounder, with newer tech. Biggest benefit of the Mitsi is the permanent 4wd, but only necessary in bad climate areas! Either way, both are a great choice 😊

Both the Mitsibishi and Isuzu powered Mazda have amongst the most reliable engines in the current ute market. Wheras the verdict is not in yet on Fords slightly modified Lion series V6 that was not a particularly reliable or long lived engine in the Landrover Discovery in 2.7 and 3 liter versions. Time will tell!

Great video. Money wise this or Navara warrior or Triton GLS. The Triton GLS is $6k cheaper. Warrior looks mean same price as the Mazda. It's doing my head in. Thanks

wow , i really love the front face of that, so unique and rare 😊

what are the oem bull bar daytime running lights globe t ?? what? and the indicator globe t?? what? As I'm looking at a led upgrade and not wanting to undo the plates till I get the globes.

A good alternative to the D Max which I've just been told there's a six month wait for.

d max and bt 50 are the same with the exception of the rear off the road lock mechanism making it a more reliable off the road truck.

Or the D-max X-terrain is $65,990 drive away for the same car with more tech.

I pick up my 2024 bt50 extra cab 4x4 2 door in 6 weeks Yes it’s basically the same as the Isuzu however I paid $51k on road and the Isuzu is $63k on road That’s a huge price difference

Great review! Any plans on road testing the GWM Tank 300 hybrid? That, will look great driving down Nepean Highway..

Had my Mazda bt50 gt for 9 months, hate the thing. Spent 20k on mods have had it tuned, still have the emergency breaking and radar sensors are way to much. Selling for a raptor

Do Nissan frontier 2022 pls

Toyota SR is 57k isn’t it ?

When the 2023 Rav4 come out can you please review the top spec Cruiser grade. But I think it is in toyota Australia.

So was this a paid advertisement for Mazda?

Of course Toyota.. in the long run unless perhaps in short term.

Can this cross the Simpson desert? Do they have parts for it at Birdsville? The best Ute in the world is …..

The only good thing about the Mazda is that in South Africa the thieves are more discerning. So you probably will not get you ute stolen or hijacked.Maybe because it has cloth seats and sounds like a tractor.

I hear the word 'decent' a lot..

Hmmm, Matt have you seen the price for the DMAX. Has tonnes more options fitted and auto which Mazda charges another $3k for.

Isn’t the 2022 BT50 a knockoff Isuzu DMax, but with less capability performance off-road?

Why not just buy the dmax

Being a part time 4WD, uses less fuel in comparison to full time 4WDs.

Driven one, doesn't compare. Underpowered, unrefined. I'm happy with my V6 RA Ranger thanks. The extra "8k" I paid is worth it. When you're dropping 60 to 70k on a dual cab, what's another 8. The niche touches of the ranger make it all the better.

Had both. Went from a 17 Hilux to a 21 BT50 and back to a 22 Hilux. BT50 was cheap and nasty. Very poor build quality inside and out, mundane interior and horrible gearbox. Bought it brand new and sold it 1 year later. Drove beautifully on the highway I will say. Hilux is outdated, it’s slow but it’s absolutely solid. Real world owner review here.

Agree, the journo's/reviewers quote the manufacturers' stated power and torque figures but in any performance testing the new DMax/BT50 do very well and always faster than the HiLuxe for what that is worth. The new DMax/BT50 engine is very receptive to just a mild "tune" to liberate some pony's without creating drams short or long term. Try and find the KZread clip from South Africa on Bakkie drag race test, worth the time believe me.

Never heard a Hilux having any of the above problems and you’ll find they’re common with Isuzu. Without a warranty the previous gen Dmax can potentially be a write off just from mechanical issues. Not the Hilux. DPF and inner guards alone are $8-10k a piece. Turbo $4k, air con $4k and so on. I was lucky my turbo lasted so long. They’re known to blow them often and the techs were surprised I was still on my first. Turbo and ac fixed under warranty
