International

International MXT International truck company's MXT is a lowered crew-cab pickup truck in a more consumer-friendly package than the company's larger trucks. The MXT's front end is dominated by a tall waterfall grille, while its profile looks odd with its "lowered" ride height is really much higher than it seems. A sport exterior package adds a chrome bumper with tow hooks and anodized aluminium tubular running boards. The MXT features a long cargo bed and measures large enough to not fit in most conventional garages. The MXT is powered by a 6.0-litre turbodiesel V8, mated to an Allison five-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel-drive. Features include an air suspension system, 20-inch wheels, a five-occupant interior with front bucket seats and a three-place rear bench seat, leather seating surfaces, a leather-wrapped tilt steering wheel, keyless entry, and power locks and windows, as well as ABS brakes. The optional "Prestige Interior" includes ivory-coloured gauges, silver interior trim, special floor mats, and front and rear air-ride seats. Options include a navigation system with a 6.5-inch screen and a rearview camera, and a DVD entertainment system with a 10-inch screen. Twice as heavy as any large 4WD, and with space to walk between seats, the MXT is being marketed as an off-road vehicle. Thankfully, it is not available in all GCC markets.
