2021 Mazda BT-50 review: XT 4x4 manual

Now that the 2021 Mazda BT-50 has arrived in Australia, it’s plain to see that Mazda has done everything it can to get out of work. By now you’ll already know that the all-new BT-50 shares its mechanical bits and electrical architecture with the Isuzu D-Max, with Mazda creating its own look inside and out. What you may not know is that Mazda doesn't seem to want to get its hands dirty. This new BT-50 XT 4x4, the entry-level model, neither looks nor feels like a workhorse ute.
