Ssangyong Korando Diesel Review

2016 ssangyong musso ex auto review.
Ssangyong korando diesel review. The powertrain is on the money out here too the diesel packing a solid midrange and it revs freely to its power peak at 4000rpm despite it being relatively new. A 15 litre four cylinder petrol and a 16 litre four cylinder diesel. You could say that this time around the brand is actually committed to making things work. Having read some good reviews of the ssangyong i decided to take a chance and buy one.
Matt campbell takes the fifth generation korando for a ride to find out. Two engines will be offered a 15 litre turbo petrol and 16 litre. The steering is light and the korando feels compact and agile around city streets and car parks. Interior has been modernised.
The more powerful diesel engine has the same. Ssangyong korando will compete with big name korean competitors and models like nissan qashqai and mazda cx 5. Its a shame about the engine noise because the korando is actually one of the nicer suvs to drive around town. The ssangyong korando suv is good compared to the companys previous models but poor by class standards.
Year of registration. 2019 ssangyong korando review. The diesel meanwhile has a power output of 136ps and 324nm of torque with a co2 rating of 115gkm. Despite being longer than the nissan if not quite as big as the sportage the ssangyong.
That was before the company left australia but now its back with a new focus new product and under the control of ssangyong hq in korea rather than a local distributor. The ssangyong korando is a competitor for the likes of the nissan qashqai hyundai tucson and kia sportage. Fuel consumption figures are yet to be confirmed but ssangyong says its targeting a co2 figure of 146gkm. The 15 litre gdi petrol engine produces 163ps and 280nm of torque.
With a few more kilometres under the treads we would expect the korando spr to improve on its 109sec 0 100kmh time. Ssangyong has debuted and detailed its new korando at the geneva motor show ahead of an australian launch later this year. The diesel will likely be all wheel drive only in australia while the petrol will be. The driving position is properly elevated too so there is an authentic suv feeling to it.
