Isuzu D-Max 2.5 LT 4×2 MT Dsl (2015) vs Geely EX2 Pro (2026)

Isuzu D-Max 2.5 LT 4×2 MT Dsl (2015) vs Geely EX2 Pro (2026): which should you buy?

For a Filipino buyer weighing utility against urban convenience, the Isuzu D‑Max 2.5 LT 4×2 MT (₱892,000) remains the practical choice if you need genuine payload capacity, a rugged body‑on‑frame pickup, and diesel torque for hauling or off‑road trips. Its 2.5‑L turbo‑charged diesel delivers 280 Nm of torque low in the rev range, which is far higher than the Geely EX2 Pro’s 150 Nm, making it better for towing and heavy loads. The D‑Max also offers a longer wheelbase (5,195 mm) and a 2+3 seating layout that can accommodate extra cargo behind the bench. However, if you prioritize a compact footprint, lower emissions, and a longer warranty, the 2026 Geely EX2 Pro (₱938,000) is attractive. Its electric motor provides slightly more peak power (113 PS vs 109 PS) and an automatic transmission, plus a modern unibody crossover design that fits tight city streets (4,135 mm length). The EX2 Pro also comes with a 6‑year/150,000 km warranty and multiple exterior colors, appealing to younger, eco‑conscious commuters. In short, choose the D‑Max for work‑horse duties and cargo needs; choose the Geely EX2 Pro for city driving, zero‑fuel costs and a longer warranty, accepting lower torque and higher price.
