  • You might not be familiar with SsangYong brand, but SsangYong is a Korean Car Manufacture that specializes in making SUVs and pickup Trucks. And SsangYong just introduced all the SUV called Ssangyong Torres. It shares its platform with SsangYong Korando and it is designed to compete against rivals such as Hyundai Santa Fe and Kia Sorento. But dimensions wise it is closer to Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage. Now, let’s go out and drive SsangYong Torres and see if you like it.

    Best looking Ssangyong I have seen for years! At first I thought it was a Mitsubishi Outlander. Shame on it having such a small engine. It should have a 2ltr option.

    SsangYong has been selling TORRES more than 75,000 vehicles so far within 3 months from July to September in domestic market. In upcoming November, TORRES 'll be launched at Chille. Wow. That's amazing.

    It's amazing how Ssangyong can come up with something like this, the exterior, interior, the detail and finish in their current financial state - along with all the facelifts across the rest of the range they deserve a lot of credit for not dropping the fundamentals that ensure a sustainable business. That has to have given investors a lot of confidence that there is growth opportunity.

    Great review Charlie! Nice mention of Australia in your video. I think if SsangYong continue to develop their off road vehicles, they will continue to do well in Australia. Supply seems to be the issue with them making even more sales.

    I’m impressed by Hyundai’s and Kia’s successes! Hope SsangYong, Daewoo, and Samsung (they are in South Korea) cars will be popular soon around the world!

    • @aquaticko
      @aquaticko Před rokem +7

      Daewoo doesn't exist in cars at all anymore. GM bought them after the IMF crisis, and stopped using the Daewoo badge in 2011, though GM still manufactures cars in former Daewoo plants. Samsung cars were only ever rebadged Renaults, and the former Renault-Samsung Motors became Renault Korea Motors earlier this year. This is why I really hope SsangYong does better: otherwise, it'll really just be Hyundai/Kia from Korea. They should come to the U.S.; we buy every SUV we can!

Difficult to pronounce in the English language and fairly unpopular and unknown in many markets, I believe a name and logo change could really help them moving forward. Good luck to KG group and I'm glad they're helping to resurrect SsangYong.

    The whacky design/styling vocabulary is at least consistent so it works on both the exterior and interior. The lockable C pillar exterior passenger-side lunchbox would be a good place for fix-a-flat equipment as it never fails that the rear cargo is laden with goods that all has to be removed to access it when needed.

    I'm from Germany and I love the torres. Also the rexton. In any reviews from Germany, UK or Australia I only hear positive feedback. Therefore it's sad that Ssangyong was in financial problems.
    It seems that now Ssangyong starts to build pretty nice cars. In the past the design and quality was more controversial.
    As I heard the orders and preorders for the torres in Korea are already higher than anual orders for all the other models worldwide. :) Looking forward to the more success with the brand.

    Throw this in the oversaturated mid-size SUV segment and you have a winner.
    Not because is modern and well appointed inside but because offers real offroad capability which none of the competition seem to offer.
    Will take this instead of Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, Renault Koleos, Volkswagen Tiguan, Peugeot 3008, Citroen C5 Aircross, Toyota RAV4, Mitsubishi Outlander, Subaru Forester, Mazda CX-5, BMW X3, Audi Q5, Skoda Kodiaq, Nissan X-Trail, Honda CR-V, Ford Escape, Volvo XC60 etc. etc.

    When this comes to Australia, and as long as they have an interior colour choice that is not black, and have priced it fairly, then I'll 100% buy one. Ideally with the tan interior, which looks fantastic on the Korean local website. And in the green colour that is available in the Korean market. Re: fair pricing, for the top spec model, I'd want it to be in the 40s on the road for the petrol AWD model to consider buying it, and not in the 50s.

    That storage box outside is actually not that bad. It would be an even better access to the first aid kit, safety vest and warning triangle. It's good they didn't made a side fixed trunk lid and with the EV version the gear shifting issue won't be one ;-)
