It is a larger version of the predecessor B-Series pickup and is not sold in the Japanese and North American markets.
In late November 2006, the new five-speed automatic transmission with Borg Warner transfer case has been added, as well as side airbags.
The BT-50 received a minor redesign in the first quarter of 2008, with a revised interior and several optional items made standard.
Of the exterior panels, only the windscreen, roof, and rear screen are common between the Ranger and BT-50, although the underpinnings are largely the same.
[8] A revised BT-50 for the 2016 model year debuted in July 2015 and launched into the Australian market in September 2015.
Changes includes revised looks and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support through an Alpine sound head unit.
This variant featured a matte black grille, aluminum roof rack, roll bars, riveted fender flares, 17-inch Rota alloy wheels, and a white pangolin decal on each side.
[16] As the result, the TF BT-50 is built at Isuzu Motors plant in Samrong, Samut Prakan, Thailand.
[17] For the first time, the third-generation BT-50 is available with adaptive cruise control which is aided by twin cameras in the windscreen rather than a radar sensor in the grille, as to make the installation of off-road accessories in the front of the vehicle possible.
Autonomous emergency braking, blind zone warning, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keeping assistance and centre airbags are also available in select trims.
