BluE Nexus Corporation, Aisin and Denso have announced that the eAxle jointly developed by the three companies has been installed in Isuzu's first battery electric vehicle (BEV) pickup, the D-Max EV, which went into production in April 2025.

The newly installed product combines the newly developed eAxle front and rear with a full-time 4WD system. The BEV is described as having a 4WD system with a low-noise and low-vibration engine.

As D-Max EVs are gradually expanded globally, starting with shipments to major European countries and gradually adapting to market characteristics and customer needs, the companies say the product will also provide high-performance drive solutions around the world.

Going forward, BluE, Aisin and Densoi says they will continue to provide valuable technologies and products by leveraging their respective strengths and know-how.

BluE is an electrification system and electric drive module development and sales company established in April 2019.
