Carl Fogarty MBE has recently received the keys to a brand new Isuzu D-Max Arctic Trucks AT35, swapping out a range-topping V-Cross for Isuzu UK's newest extreme adventure vehicle.

Carl's new pick-up, replacing the Pearl White Isuzu D-Max V-Cross, is Isuzu UK's flagship model, the Isuzu D-Max Arctic Trucks AT35. With an all-black exterior, this unique pick-up is equipped with a sports bar, roof and grille-mounted Lazer Lights, and a roll top with load liner. The adrenaline-inspired vehicle is the perfect fit for thrill-seeking petrolhead Carl Fogarty, who spends a large amount of time participating in outdoor hobbies such as mountain biking, dirt biking and fishing. Thanks to Carl's existing relationship with Isuzu UK, having had other vehicles including the V-Cross and the adventure-focused XTR, as well as his penchant for living a fast-paced lifestyle, it is no surprise that the superbike champion is now a brand ambassador for the Isuzu D-Max Arctic Trucks marque.

Carl Fogarty, commonly known as Foggy, is a seven-time motorcycle racing world champion who has raced to victory on 59 occasions in the World Superbike Championships – picking up four world titles in the process – making him one of the most decorated riders of all time. Renowned for his high corner speed riding style, Carl earned plaudits thanks to his gutsy, aggressive style and a determination to win at all costs, proving highly effective on the track. Since retiring from racing in 2000, Carl has pursued numerous endeavours, including winning the TV reality show 'I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!' in 2014, while spending a large remainder of his time on his multitude of outdoor hobbies.

The Isuzu D-Max Arctic Trucks AT35 is a professionally re-engineered vehicle that incorporates significant enhancements to the body, frame, drivetrain, suspension, wheels and tyres, whilst retaining Isuzu's five-year/125,000-mile warranty. This new halo model has been developed and engineered to handle the most challenging landscapes with ease while offering a distinctive presence and authentic performance thanks to the 35' all-terrain tyres and Bilstein suspension upgrade, making it the perfect adventure pick-up for thrill seekers.

Brian Wheeler, PR & Product Manager at Isuzu UK, said: 'Facilitating this handover with Carl was an obvious decision for us, as he epitomises the essence of adventure which is captured by the brand's new halo model. As an ambassador for the Isuzu D-Max Arctic Trucks marque, it was only fitting that Carl received a fully equipped, action-ready pick-up suited to the lifestyle of the seven-time world champion.'

The highly decorated World Superbike legend Carl Fogarty commented: 'Isuzu has come up with another awesome pick-up – better than I could have imagined. The new AT35 is perfect for my outdoor lifestyle and all my toys, has great off-road ability and it also looks amazing.'
