More Go, Less Thirst: Meet the New Mazda BT-50 2.2L
Mazda's workhorse just got a serious upgrade.
The new 2.2-litre turbo-diesel joins the BT-50 range, bringing more muscle, smoother shifting, and the option of 4WD for the first time in this spec.
What's New?
Replacing the 1.9L engine, the new 2.2 punches out 120kW and 400Nm, giving you an extra 10kW of power and 50Nm of torque - exactly what you want when you're towing, hauling or just cruising through Brisbane traffic.
Matched to a new eight-speed auto, the BT-50 2.2L doesn't just move quicker; it sips less fuel too.
Expect savings of up to 0.7L/100km and lower emissions, proving that grunt and efficiency can happily coexist.
Now with 4WD Confidence
Here's the big news: the BT-50 XS with the 2.2L engine can now be had with 4WD.
That means tradies, adventurers and anyone chasing more traction can step up to a Dual Cab Chassis or Pickup that's ready for weekend escapes or muddy worksites.
Plus, you'll find LED headlights, adaptive cruise control, reverse camera, and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto all standard - no extra boxes to tick.
The Dual Cab Pickup even scores alloy wheels for good measure.
Mazda's Thinking Smarter Across the Range
Mazda hasn't stopped there.
The proven 3.0-litre engine in higher-grade BT-50s now gets an Idle Stop System, cutting fuel use by up to 11% when you're idling at the lights.
And if you're eyeing an XTR or GT 4x4, you'll now get a towbar fitted as standard - perfect for those ready to hitch up and head out.
