The 1999-2001 Isuzu Frontera UE, also known as the Opel/Vauxhall/Holden Frontera, was a second-generation compact sport utility vehicle (SUV) produced by Isuzu Motors and marketed globally under various brand names. It was a significant departure from its predecessor, featuring a more modern and sophisticated design. The Frontera UE was built on a new platform with a unibody construction, offering increased rigidity and enhanced handling compared to the previous ladder frame design. It was available in both three-door and five-door body styles, catering to different needs and preferences. The Frontera UE inherited its powertrains from the previous generation, with a choice of either a 2.2-liter four-cylinder diesel or a 3.2-liter V6 gasoline engine. Both engine options were paired with a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission.
Beyond its technical specifications, the 1999-2001 Isuzu Frontera UE was praised for its spacious interior, comfortable seating, and ample cargo space. It also boasted a number of standard features, including power steering, air conditioning, and a four-wheel drive system. The Frontera UE's robust construction and capable off-road abilities made it a popular choice for drivers seeking a versatile and reliable SUV. However, the model's fuel efficiency and overall performance were perceived as average compared to its rivals in the market. The Frontera UE was a significant step forward for Isuzu, offering a blend of stylish design, practicality, and off-road capability. However, it faced competition from a growing number of established SUVs in the market, ultimately leading to its discontinuation in 2004.
