Here are some more information for Isuzu Vehicross:
The Isuzu brand is one of the least known of the Japanese car brands sold in the North American market. Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi, and Subaru are all well recognized and respected Japanese makes while Isuzu lives perpetually in their shadow and underneath the wings of world auto giant, General Motors. Let's take a look at Isuzu and what makes this car company tick.
In 1981, Isuzu followed competing Japanese automakers and entered the US, the world's largest automobile market in terms of annual sales. Getting a late start, Isuzu had some catching up to do as each of its Japanese rivals had already established themselves in the lucrative American market. Indeed, it has always been perceived by automobile experts that if an automaker was going to be successful in the world, then they needed to establish a foothold in the highly competitive U.S. market.
Earlier models from Isuzu included the I-Mark, a compact four door sedan; the Stylus, which replaced the I-Mark; the Trooper, a compact SUV; the Impulse, a sporty two door coupe; and the P'up, a compact pick up truck.
Unfortunately for Isuzu, bad publicity and a small marketing network have limited the brand in its quest to grow. A report completed by industry watchdog, Consumer Report's, alleged that 1995 and 1996 model year Troopers, "...have too great a tendency to roll over in certain situations." Consumer Report's also gave the vehicle a rare "not acceptable" rating, something very few vehicles have ever received by the group over the years. In a previous negative report during the 1980s for the Suzuki Samurai, sales of the Samurai plunged. Indeed, Suzuki is another Japanese make with limited appeal. Could Consumer Report's findings adversely effected both companies? Some experts believe this to be true, judging by their respectively small market shares.
Eventually, many of the original models in the Isuzu line up were replaced to give the automaker a better footing in the U.S. During the early 1990s, Isuzu decided to stop importing cars, concentrating solely on pick up trucks and SUVS. An overhauled Trooper joined the Amigo and Rodeo in the Isuzu line up followed a number of years later by the VehiCross.
Isuzu's thrust into the U.S has all but stopped and, for now, they do not import a single vehicle into the U.S., relying instead on their relationship with GM, who owns 12% of the company, to sell rebadged GM vehicles as Isuzus. At last count, Isuzus sales were averaging about 1,000 vehicles per month, certainly not a sustainable figure for any car producer.
So, what keeps Isuzu going? A few things: diesel engines and GM. As a world class manufacturer of diesel engines, Isuzu provides engines for - you guessed it - GM trucks. Filling a glaring void in the GM line up, Isuzu has turned from an automotive importer to an automotive supplier; at least as far as the North American market is concerned. GM, in turn, has invested heavily in Isuzu and together they have joint ventures around the globe including a shared stake in an Australian operation.
The long term strategy for Isuzu is unclear, but it does appear that the North American market is unsustainable at least as far as the passenger car market goes. The company does have a line of commercial vehicles that are sold in the US which are favored by companies needing an economical, but compact commercial truck in their fleet. Couple that with their relationship with GM, Isuzu's future may well lay in the areas of engine supplier and commercial vehicle provider, two niches that have been successful so far for the Japanese company.

2009 Recession Does Not Spare Isuzu Sales
Isuzu has transformed itself from a full-line manufacturer of cars, light-duty trucks, buses, and commericial vehicles to the world's largest manufacturer of medium and heavy duty trucks. Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, the company has made this transformation due to its lack of car and light-duty truck sales in the United States and Japan. Isuzu first began selling cars in the United States in the early 1970's under the Buick brand of General Motors. This arrangement continued throughout the 1970's; in the early 1980's, Isuzu began selling cars and light-duty trucks under both its own name and dealership network and through GM's dealership network. In the late 1980's, Isuzu established a manufacturing plant in the United States in a joint venture with Subaru of Japan. Isuzu enjoyed mixed success selling passenger cars in the United States, and in 1993 ceased exporting passenger cars to the United States.
Throughout the 1990's, Isuzu continued to sell light-duty trucks and SUVs in the United States. Sales of those vehicles began to decline in the last decade because of a lack of investment in new products, poor management, and poor sales of new products like the Vehicross sport utility vehicle. Isuzu ceased selling light-duty trucks and SUVs in the United States in 2009, and currently only sells medium and heavy-duty trucks for commercial use in the United States. Isuzu had sales of slightly over US $15 billion in 2009, and for the near future will continue to concentrate on diesel engine production and the heavy and medium-duty commercial vehicle market. Isuzu has forecast a loss of US $213 million in 2010 due to the lingering effects of the international financial crisis. Toyota of Japan purchased a 5.9% stake in Isuzu in 2006, and is cooperating with Isuzu in the development and production of diesel engines, emissions control technology, and environmental technologies. Isuzu has no plans to re-enter the U.S. market at this time, although Isuzu continues to develop and sell light-duty pickup trucks for some of its overseas markets. Those products at some point in the future could be offered for sale in the United States under Isuzu's brand or through a joint marketing venture.
