Models SsangYong

SsangYong it was the first company in South Korea to manufacture vehicles. It was founded in 1954 and since 1970 it has specialized in the design and manufacturing of off-road and industrial vehicles (vans, trucks, buses…). Its sales in the international market are not very high but it has maintained collaboration agreements with manufacturers of the stature of Mercedes-Benz or BAIC. It is currently under the umbrella of the Indian firm Mahindra & Mahindra.

The model that opens the range of the South Korean manufacturer is the Tivoli urban SUV. It represents a turning point for quality, technology, mechanical range and safety. Regarding his rivals offers a very spacious interior, outstanding standard equipment (technological and safety) and an original and configurable design. Its mechanical range is not very wide, since it only includes a diesel mechanic and another gasoline, plus an LPG variant. Unlike many rivals can mount four wheel drive and automatic cut-off gearbox.

Just one step above the Tivoli we have the XLV. This model perfectly mixes what should be a family vehicle and an SUV. Manufactured on the same platform as Tivoli its mechanical range, equipment possibilities and technology are identical. The point that makes him stand out from his younger brother is having a trunk offering 720 liters capacity. Its quality/equipment/space/price ratio is one of the best on the market.

The family range of SsangYong closes the super minivan Rodius. This model is the best vehicle with 7 seats and a trunk on the market. Compared to its predecessor has improved its exterior design (although it is still questionable) and the security and technological equipment. The mechanical range only has a 178 hp diesel version and the possibility of ride four wheel drive and automatic change.

the all way Korando It is a classic within SsangYong. This model has just received a slight restyling that will keep it young until its replacement arrives on the market. Just like Rodius its range is only available with a 178 hp diesel engine and possibilities of mounting four-wheel drive and automatic transmission. Compared to its predecessor, it improves its interior quality and equipment possibilities. It is one of the best all-rounders for value for money.

SsangYong's SUV range closes Rexton W.. This model is developed on a traditional ladder platform (beams and crossbars) ideal for driving four by four. Compared to its predecessor has changed its mechanics of origin Mercedes-Benz by the same one that incorporates the Rodius and Korando. Despite its seniority, the comfort and safety equipment is still up to date, representing a very logical option in the market.
