SsangYong
Larger and heavier cars builds the South Korean manufacturer already, here you can see a so-called crossover from the B-segment, represents a relatively compact two-wheel drive, looking like a SUV and a
competitor of Renault Captur and Opel Mokka. The designer has worked at Citroén at the DS 3 before his time at SsangYong.
All-wheel comes a bit later ... |
The knees and the heads of the backbenchers do not have to duck excessively and in the rear end fits enough luggage for this class with possible 40:60 partition of rear seat back. Everything you need is available, but
no length adjustment for the steering wheel. You can even choose between three modes, but the steering remains smoothly without feedback.
Looking at the data, so deviations from the usual are apparent. Positive is arguably the enormous payload, but that goes hand in hand with a fairly stiff suspension. Worse, the CO2 values, still tolerable
for the diesel but to accept less in case of petrol engine and beyond the limits with automatic transmission. On top they are indicated behind those with start-stop system and results in 34 g/km difference when diesel
engine.
The engine itself is not yet available, but could be a reason for pleasure, if the enormous torque already from 1500 rpm proves true. If the gasoline engine is built specifically for SsangYong in Austria, one must
assume that for the diesel engine also. Not yet very often that petrol and diesel engine have exactly the same bore and stroke.
Anyone who thinks that the name 'Tivoli' is borrowed from the Copenhagen amusement park, is taught better by the manufacturer. Even the is based also on the eponymous town in the province of Rome with the
famous Park Villa d/Este. 05/15
