Overview & Reviews
More power is the word for 2004. The Axiom's 3.5-liter V6 engine features new gasoline "direct injection" technology to improve both horsepower and torque. Of a less exciting nature, the audio system doesn't include a tape player anymore and the speaker count drops by two for a total of six. Outside, there's a new chrome finish for the front grille and for the XS model's optional alloy wheels.
- Strong V6 engine, distinctive styling, slick four-wheel-drive system.
- Old tech underpinnings, cumbersome control layout, slow steering, tight legroom in front seat.

Fantastic - 2004 Isuzu Axiom
By StaceL - November 19 - 2:00 amI love my Axiom. I have made 4 trips from Florida to Texas and back with mine and it has been wonderful. It is so comfy and fun to drive, that the 16 hours fly by. I would recommend this car to young people that are not ready for the monster size SUV just yet.

one happy girl - 2004 Isuzu Axiom
By pickygirl - October 6 - 3:56 amI am about as picky a woman as they come and I love everything about my Axiom. The XS model offers just about every option you could think of and more. I love the way it drives and looks. I do not understand why they stopped making them. They look a lot like the BMW SUV...but a lot less in price. If you can find one for sale...buy it...you wont be sorry!

Great car for the price... - 2004 Isuzu Axiom
By WilmaSnickerbocker - September 20 - 10:00 amI love my Axiom. I looked at a lot of V4 and V6 SUVs and I got the most for my money with the Axiom. The dealer service has not been as good as when I owned an Infiniti. Dealer service could be improved. But, the car offers a lot of leg room and is overall very, very nice for the money. The cost was a lot less than the Toyota Highlander, but the interior is much roomier and nicer. And, it pulls 4500 lbs which is great if you tow trailers. Gas mileage averages at 15 MPG, which is worse that I expected. I get lots of complements on this car.

The highlight of my day! - 2004 Isuzu Axiom
By swymjym - August 19 - 2:00 amEverytime I step into my sporty Axiom I revel in its sheer magnificence. I am proud to be an owner of such a great vehicle. My friends all love the ride it delivers, and it does not fail to turn heads. I cannot understand why Edmunds bashes the Axiom.?.?. The car feels and looks like a luxury vehicle, but costs significantly less. Buy one if you have a chance!!!

Smooth riding SUV - 2004 Isuzu Axiom
By SCTribeFan - July 26 - 2:00 amLooked for over a year for the right midsize SUV. The research from consumer magazines stated this vehicle was designed to compete with the Toyota Highlander, but be more reasonably priced. The price was great, and the ride compares to a Toyota Camry which I owned for years prior to purchasing the Axiom. Would absolutely buy another.

Best Looking SUV - 2004 Isuzu Axiom
By Marcellus - April 20 - 10:00 amI love my Axiom. I love the uniqueness of the car, its not too big over the top look, its out of the box design thats not just a aquare or retangle box on wheels and its bold in your face,very different front fascia. Its a minivan for people who dont want to be seen in a minivan but rather an SUV. Its just a "cute" vehicle thats different from the standard square boxes out there.
