Ssangyong Korando 2020

anyone bought the above suv ?  any real time comments are much appreciated

With MB inputs,  this would be the selling point I guess.

 

But somehow i feel the finishing  and design a tad too raw when compared to modern era.

I bought one unit in march at their roadshow! So far the car is great. especially the handling and drive!

Although the brand not very well known but the car is really good leh! My Tivoli 240k km already still going sweet sweet!

How is the diesel one? I heard usually diesel cars are noisy

[Colin03]

should the standard diesel sound unless the sound proofing is very good.

How come I have the feeling I am in a crosstalk show...

Mahindra to unload SsangYong

“SsangYong needs a new investor. We are working with the company to see if we can secure investment,” Mahindra’s managing director Pawan Kumar Goenka told Automotive News Europe.

The sell-off is part of Mahindra’s wider restructuring plan stemming from the coronavirus crisis, that will see the Indian car giant cut costs and review all of its “money-losing businesses” in the next year, reported Automotive News Europe.

KDB refuses to back SsangYong Motor with bailout fund

Korea Development Bank, South Korea’s policy lender, on Wednesday refused to support the liquidity-stricken SsangYong Motor using its bailout fund of 40 trillion won ($32.95 billion) created to extend a lifeline to local companies suffering from the fallout of the novel coronavirus.

“Money is not necessarily everything for a company’s survival,” KDB Chairman Lee Dong-gull told reporters at a teleconference. “It takes money for a company to get through hardships, but much more is needed. It needs a strong business model. We doubt whether SsangYong stays true to its willingness to survive on its own.”
