2018-2019 SsangYong Rexton
As a new and authentic SUV, SsangYong Rexton will help SsangYong re-establish its brand internationally, and draws on the original Rexton for its iconic flagship status.
With growing demand from around the world for cars with strong off-road driving performance and good towing capabilities to meet the growth in leisure interests, SsangYong expects to see further applications of its body-on-frame, front engine/rear drive layout in large SUVs. This will further consolidate the company's reputation as a specialist SUV manufacturer.
The new car embodies robust and dynamic SUV styling and blends drivability with high levels of safety that includes nine airbags. With a front mounted engine, rear-wheel drive and 4x4, Rexton will be a class-leading contender. It will offer excellent driving characteristics on and off-road, balanced weight distribution, great towing capability and good NVH performance.
SsangYong expects this new generation Rexton to compete with traditional D & E segment SUVs, and will continue the renewal of SsangYong's brand identity which began with the launch of Tivoli. Inheriting the DNA of the original Rexton flagship, it will also further underpin the company's reputation as Korea's oldest vehicle manufacturer and only 4x4 and SUV specialist producer.
An advanced infotainment system is installed in the car, and includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with device mirroring, with everything including navigation displayed in HD on a wide 9.20-inch screen. With excellent connectivity, it ensures quality entertainment and enjoyment on the move.
Other features include Auto Closing (the doors lock automatically when the key is carried away from the car), Easy Access (the driver's seat position is automatically adjusted for easy access when the door opens), high-performing, dual-zone fully automated air-conditioning that filters even fine dust, a 220V/115V inverter in the load area, and a 'smart tailgate' for added convenience when loading and unloading the boot. (This automatically opens the tailgate when holding the key next to the car for more than three seconds).
Reportedly available in the both rear- and all-wheel drive forms with a seven-speed Mercedes-Benz automatic transmission, buyers will be able to choose between a 133kW/420Nm 2.2-liter turbo-diesel motor and a 165kW/350Nm 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine.
As revealed last week, the new Rexton measures 4850mm long, 1920mm wide, 1800mm high, and rides on a 2864mm wheelbase. That makes it 130mm longer than today’s car on a 44mm longer wheelbase. Although 50mm wider, the new car’s roof is 30mm closer to the ground.
Riding on a ‘Quad-Frame’, the new Rexton is the first car to 1.5Gpa giga-steel. The utilisation of high-strength steel should mean that it’s lighter than today’s vehicle.
