Rough-ride rival

Evening Chronicle (Newcastle, England), Oct 24, 2008

OFF-ROAD the Mazda BT-50 is highly capable but bumpy inside. The stiff ride and firm seats do no favours.

It has good ground clearance of some eight inches, can handle 34% approach angles, tow up to three tons and carry a maximum load weight of 1.18tons.

Additional features include rapid demist heated door mirrors, amber instrument lights replacing the green of the current version and a leather covered steering wheel and gearknob.

Fourteen paint jobs are now available including three two-tone combinations some of which will probably not be too popular with many a builder.

Nevertheless the new BT-50 looks much more the part than its predecessor and can be used either for work or play with a proper amount of refinement in the cab.
