Overview & Reviews
For 2006, minor package revisions and stability control highlight the changes for the Isuzu SUV.
- Strong six- and eight-cylinder engines, simple interior design, plenty of passenger and cargo room, long warranty.
- Spongy suspension, numb steering, low-grade interior materials, odd exterior proportions, poor expected resale value.

Real SUV no crossover! - 2006 Isuzu Ascender
By OHIO BOY - March 25 - 1:13 pmIf you want a real SUV this a great car. The mileage is not great but it is a big SUV . Brakes are a problem on this SUV . The heat builds up and takes out the rotors. Put the better rotors on it.

Jimmy goes Isuzu - 2006 Isuzu Ascender
By Luv2Go - April 7 - 5:40 amI enjoy the Isuzu Ascender, its a nicely designed vehicle which has a great turning radius for an SUV. The driving performance is smooth and acceleration transitions nicely. Its competitor, the Envoy, has better standard features and doesnt skimp on basic items as a resume button for cruise control. The Ascender is great for a small family of 4 taking a trip. Rear cargo is adequate for big suitcases.

Best Kept Secret - 2006 Isuzu Ascender
By dapperD - January 18 - 12:46 amI have only had this Ascender for a short while but fell in love with it the moment I took it on a test drive. It has a very soft ride for city driving. Highway driving while smooth is a bit choppy. I think it has to do with aerodynamics and that Im used to owning a car. Compared to the Ascenders cousins (Trailblazer, Envoy), it cant be beat for warranty and price. I bought mine brand new for $19,965. Apparently, Isuzu was offering quite a bit off of MSRP yet it wasnt advertised. This is almost $7,000 off of sticker price (I think its because Isuzu is in big trouble financially). How was I going to pass that up? This SUV is a beauty and you wont see many on the road.
