Isuzu will continue as the Official Automotive Partner of Tough Mudder through 2025, marking a seventh straight year of supporting the famously muddy endurance event series.

The renewed partnership will once again see Isuzu sponsor the infamous ‘Mud Mile’ obstacle – one of the event’s most gruelling challenges – and provide three branded D-Max pickups to support event operations at Tough Mudder venues across the UK.

Known for its brutal terrain and emphasis on resilience and teamwork, Tough Mudder is a natural fit for the Isuzu D-Max, which brings a 3.5-tonne towing capacity, one-tonne payload, and the kind of off-road credentials that make boggy ground and steep climbs look easy.

“We’re absolutely thrilled our partnership with Tough Mudder continues in 2025,” said George Wallis, head of marketing at Isuzu UK. “From the trenches of ‘Mud Mile’ to the trails of Belvoir Castle, the D-Max is always ready to get down and dirty – it’s a muddy amazing partnership.”

Tough Mudder 2025 spans seven UK events; the series kicked off in May at the Culden Faw Estate near London and will wrap up in September at Holmbush Estate. Along the way, the D-Max will play a key role behind the scenes, helping teams transport gear and navigate rough ground at locations including Belvoir Castle, Broughton Hall, and Badminton Estate.

Mark Read, commercial director at Tough Mudder, added: “We’re delighted to be extending our long-standing relationship with Isuzu UK. The D-Max has become part of the Tough Mudder DNA, supporting our events and embodying the resilience, strength, and endurance that define our challenges. Together, we continue to push boundaries and raise the bar for what our participants – and our partners – can achieve.”
