<P> In most of Asia and Africa , Isuzu is mostly known for trucks of all sizes , after Isuzu small automobile sales drastically plummeted and Isuzu had to drop all sales of sedans and compact cars in the late 1990s . In the days when Isuzu sold passenger cars , they were known for focussing on the diesel - engined niche . In 1983 , for instance , long before the explosion in diesel sales , diesels represented 63.4 % of their passenger car production . In 2009 , Isuzu abandoned the United States consumer market due to lack of sales . Isuzu as a corporation has always been primarily a manufacturer of small to medium compact automobiles and commercial trucks of sizes medium duty and larger , but markets around the world show different needs . </P>
