Isuzu Trucks has once again reasserted its leadership in the medium-duty truck market, unveiling its all-new 2025 F Series range at the Brisbane Truck Show.

As a cornerstone of Isuzu’s complete model overhaul, the revamped F Series lineup showcases the brand’s unmatched engineering legacy and a sharp focus on safety, performance, and modern design—solidifying a market dominance that spans over three decades.

Medium-Duty Milestone

This release marks the most comprehensive upgrade in Isuzu’s storied F Series history, bringing together over 40 years of innovation and adapting it for modern-day operators and applications.

Simon Humphries, Head of Product Management & Chief Engineer for Commercial Vehicles at Isuzu Australia, put the significance into perspective:

“We’re introducing no less than 52 models within the F Series—each one engineered to meet a huge range of operational requirements for years to come,” said Mr Humphries.

“This update builds on Isuzu’s existing success in the medium-duty segment, but thanks to advancements in safety, efficiency, and driver comfort, the F Series is now on a whole new level.”

The MY25 F Series at a Glance

Four-Cylinder Line-Up

Starting in the 11,000 kg GVM range with models like the FRR/D and FSS, and scaling up to 14,000 kg GVM variants such as the FSR/D, Isuzu’s dependable 4HK1 engine remains central to performance.

Two new engine variants—TCS (154 kW/210 HP) and TCH (177 kW/240 HP)—deliver peak torque from just 1,600 rpm and come with updated emissions tech, including a DPD and SCR system using AdBlue to cut particulate and NOx emissions.

Transmission Options

These four-cylinder models offer both manual and automated manual versions of the MZW-6P 6-speed gearbox—the AMT providing a great balance of fuel economy and driver ease.

Six-Cylinder Powerhouses

Ranging from FSR and FTS 4x4 to heavier hitters like FVL, FVZ, FXZ, and FXH, the six-cylinder F Series models benefit from both familiar and all-new powertrain options.

New DB6A Engine Family

  • DB6A-TCH (191 kW/260 HP, 883 Nm) replaces the outgoing 6HK1-TCC engine.
  • DB6A-TCC (221 kW/300 HP, 981 Nm) takes over from the previous 6HK1-TCS, offering improved torque and efficiency.

Both meet ADR80/04 using Euro VI emissions standards, with DPD and SCR systems. A 65-litre AdBlue tank is positioned opposite the fuel tank for ease of access.

High-End Option: 6UZ1-TCC

Delivering 259 kW (352 HP) and used in high-load applications like waste, freight, and heavy haulage, the 6UZ1-TCC remains a powerful staple in the F Series lineup.

Transmission Evolution

All six-cylinder F Series trucks now come exclusively with Allison automatic transmissions—a move reinforcing Isuzu’s commitment to operator ease and reliability.

  • Allison 2500 Gen 6: Ideal for lighter applications like the FSR/D and FTS 4x4.
  • Allison 3000, 3500 & 4430 Gen 6: Used in heavier models, equipped with adaptive shift logic, push-button gear selection, and customizable retarder features for added safety and reduced brake wear.

Safety, Upgraded

Safety is a clear highlight of the 2025 F Series overhaul, with both active and passive systems seeing major enhancements.

Active Safety Features (via ADAS camera & radar):

  • Lane Departure Warning
  • Traffic Sign Recognition
  • Adaptive Driving Beam
  • Full-Speed Adaptive Cruise Control
  • Autonomous Emergency Braking

Passive Features:

  • Dual airbags
  • Pretensioner seatbelts
  • ECE-R29 cab strength compliance
  • Door intrusion beams

New radar systems are bumper-mounted, while a second-gen ADAS camera is now integrated low on the windscreen for better visibility and accuracy.

Interior Innovation & Operator Comfort

From the newly sculpted bumper to the sleek LED headlights and UV-filtering windscreen, the 2025 F Series presents a striking new exterior.

Inside, the cabin offers more comfort, technology, and smart storage than ever before:

  • ISRI 6860/875 NTS2 ergonomic seat with multiple adjustability options
  • Keyless entry system for added convenience
  • A large 7-inch display and new multi-function steering wheel
  • Apple CarPlay & Android Auto via the MyIsuzu Co-Pilot infotainment system
  • Enhanced LED interior lighting and overhead storage solutions

 

Built to Go Further

There’s no question—the MY25 F Series has been redesigned from the ground up to deliver superior value, reliability, and flexibility for Australian transport businesses.

“This range is truly the most sophisticated medium-duty product we’ve ever brought to market,” Mr Humphries said.

“With Isuzu’s reputation for longevity and now even more attention to safety, fuel efficiency, and comfort, we’re confident this F Series will raise the benchmark across the board.”
