The peculiar styling and truck-based platform was not well received in the marketplace, and the Axiom was replaced by the Chevrolet TrailBlazer-derived Isuzu Ascender in 2004, leading to Isuzu's withdrawal from the manufacture and sale of passenger vehicles in North America in 2009.The Axiom had two trim levels: base and the uplevel XS.
