This BT-50 ditched the usual radar for adaptive cruise control, using twin windscreen cameras instead — a deliberate move so owners could still bolt a bull bar or winch to the front.

FactThis BT-50 ditched the usual radar for adaptive cruise control, using twin windscreen cameras instead — a deliberate move so owners could still bolt a bull bar or winch to the front.
The third-generation BT-50 was unveiled in Australia on 17 June 2020. Unlike its predecessors it was developed from the third-generation Isuzu D-Max, the result of a tie-up between Mazda and Isuzu announced on 11 July 2016, with Isuzu agreeing to supply pickup trucks to Mazda. It is built at Isuzu Motors' plant in Samrong, Samut Prakan, Thailand, and features Mazda's Kodo design language, though it shares the base structure, body shell and wing mirrors with the D-Max and Mazda made most of the body panels unique. It is powered by the Isuzu-sourced 3.0-litre 4JJ3-TCX inline-four turbo-diesel, among other engines.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

Sharing a chassis with the Ford Ranger didn't mean sharing a look — Mazda's own design team reskinned the BT-50 so thoroughly that only the windscreen, roof and rear screen carried over.
Despite the badge, this is a Mazda you'll never see at home: the BT-50 is neither sold nor built in Japan.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
When Mazda's E2000 — the truck that became the Titan — launched in January 1964, the factory was tasked with building 1,900 of them a month.
Swaraj Mazda built this truck under license in India from 1985, and the plant survived name changes all the way to SML Isuzu.
Indonesia built this pickup for 28 years with no successor, the last one leaving the Jakarta line in January 2019 after 324,960 units.
Suzuki's first-ever diesel engine, fitted to the Super Carry, is so small that it isn't able to power an air-conditioning system at all.
A right-hand-drive DJ-3A was built so postal drivers could reach roadside mailboxes without leaving the seat.
The Power Wagon name and civilian pickup design were derived directly from the WC-series military trucks Dodge built for World War II.
Suzuki kept the L20 Carry at the exact same 21 hp as its predecessor but still called it progress — the gain was a patented Cylinder Crank Injection lubrication system, not more power.
This generation of Titan quietly became the ancestor of two other trucks entirely: it was license-built by Kia as the Kia Titan in South Korea, and formed the basis of the Australian Ford Trader.
