The DMAX V6 engine is a 2,958 cc (3.0 L; 180.5 cu in) diesel engine.

It was designed, and is produced by Isuzu in Fujisawa, Kanagawa, Japan, but the design rights to the engine are now owned by General Motors. It uses high-pressure common rail direct injection with four valve per cylinder, cylinder heads. A variable-geometry turbocharger and intercooler are also used. The engine was used in Europe by GM's Opel and Saab subsidiaries and by Renault.
