Mazda PH brings in Edition 2 of the BT-50 Pangolin 4x4

Designed to sit proudly in any driveway or trail, the Mazda BT-50 adopts the distinctive Mazda face with its three-dimensional signature wing wrapping its commanding front grille and extending out to the deep, sculpted LED headlights.

The BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 gets a wider, more powerful stance, thanks to the bespoke 18-inch Rota alloy wheels at each corner. Finished in Gloss Black, these wheels are manufactured specifically for the BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 with an exclusive Pangolin center cap. With 10 mm of additional offset, the wheels now sit flush with the standard black fender flares and body-colored side step boards.

Complementing the muscular stance, the BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 comes with a two-tone black/body-colored fashion bar which not only gives the BT-50 a sleeker, almost SUV-like profile, but also improves the aerodynamic air flow towards the back of the pickup truck

Like other BT-50 variants, the BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 offers an extremely generous tub. Together with its standard bedliner, this makes for a versatile hauler for cargo of various shapes and sizes. The lockable revolver bed cover helps keep items stored in the bed safe and secure, while a new tailgate assist function eases the opening and closing of the tailgate. Altogether, these enhancements make it a perfect all-rounder, fusing the usability and flexibility of a true workhorse with the elegance and ease-of-use of a leisure vehicle.

The BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 is powered by a 3.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder engine generating 190 PS at 3,600 rpm and 450 Nm of torque from 1,600 rpm. Complementing this highly capable engine is a strong and responsive 6-speed automatic.

Guaranteeing its surefootedness on any terrain, the BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 sports an electronically controlled Drive Selector featuring options for 2-wheel Drive Low, 2-wheel Drive High, 4-wheel Drive Low, and 4-wheel Drive High. Together with an electronic Rear Differential Lock, maximum contact and traction is achieved even on loose and undulating surfaces.

Mazda Active Safety Technology (MAST), equipped as standard on all BT-50 4x4 variants, help it achieve class-leading safety. It bundles technologies such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning, Autonomous Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Warning, Auto High Beam Control, and Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Traffic Alert. This is on top of 7 airbags and Electronic Stability Control.

The BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2, like every other brand-new Mazda, offers a 5-year Free Service Plan which covers the expenses of periodic maintenance at either 6-month or 10,000-kilometer intervals, for up to 5 years or 100,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. This is on top of a 3-year bumper-to-bumper warranty.

The introduction of the BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 coincides with Mazda Philippines’s decision to extend its partnership with the Katala Foundation, a non-stock, non-profit Philippine NGO based in Palawan that is active in protecting and conserving threatened endemic wildlife.

The partnership, which started in 2020, saw Mazda Philippines lend a BT-50 to the Katala Foundation to promote its wildlife protection advocacies, and perform its preservation and monitoring duties surrounding the endangered Philippine pangolin.

The new Mazda BT-50 4x4 Pangolin Edition 2 comes as a factory-installed accessory package available exclusively on the BT-50 4x4. It is available in all of the BT-50’s colors: Concrete Gray, Gun Blue Metallic, Volcanic Red, Rock Gray, Icy White, Silver Ingot, and True Black. For the first 100 customers, the package is available at a special price of P 68,000. This is on top of the BT-50 4x4’s P 1,790,000 suggested retail price.
