Price, service, resale and roads — here

  • Used Hi-lander models from 2018-2022 sell for ~ Rs 37-45 lakh depending on condition and kms.
  • Spare parts are available through Isuzu-authorized service centers in Kathmandu, but for remote areas waiting time and cost are higher. (Implied from dealer presence in Kathmandu listings and buyer comments)
  • Buyers compare total cost of ownership (fuel, service, road conditions) heavily since rugged roads and diesel fuel costs impact running cost significantly

What owners rate

  • As per price isuzu is best
  • Isuzu maybe win in economy fuel average
  • Tough and terrain capable pickup, seen as dependable for mountain roads and rural use in Nepal
  • Durable build quality and strong business/commercial utility
  • Good resale traction for older Hi-lander models

What they complain about

  • That's a really small tank for a diesel car
  • Poor product at such a high price
  • This looks over prised for no good reasons
  • No Music system most disappointing
  • 178 nm is very less
  • Very high price—many feel Rs 64.90 lakh is steep even for a pickup in Nepal
  • Concerns over cost of ownership: fuel, maintenance and spare parts availability
  • Lower demand for SUVs/feature-loaded pickups vs basic utility due to taxes and operational cost

This bit doesn't carry over

Owners abroad rate this car's resale, warranty and service cost on their own market's terms. None of that applies here — different duty, dealer network and used market. It is shown separately and never counted above.
