South Korean SUV manufacturer, SsangYong, has introduced a new range-topping model that will be joining the Rexton W line-up. The five-seat Rexton W ELX gets a number of significant enhancements over the EX model, including a luxurious new beige/grey leather interior – seats, door trims and matching carpets, a new multi-function leather covered steering wheel and updated instrumentation. There are also distinctive 18” Diamond cut alloy wheels, LED daytime running lights within the headlamp units, front parking sensors, auto-dipping rear view mirror, heated rear seats and Sat Nav to set the car apart, which is also now available in a smart new Dandy blue metallic finish. Built on a steel ladder chassis and with a 3 tonne towing capacity, the SsangYong Rexton W is a serious off-roader and tow-car.
Powered by SsangYong’s own 2.0 litre turbo charged e-XDi200 diesel engine, it delivers maximum power of 155bhp at 4,000rpm and maximum torque of 360Nm at 1,500-3,000rpm, and is designed to provide low end torque whatever the conditions. There is a choice of 6-speed manual transmission or 5-speed Mercedes-Benz T-Tronic automatic. Noted for being an extremely competent off-roader, Rexton W uses a body on frame construction for maximum strength, and the car also features a sophisticated multi-link rear suspension system to ensure a comfortable ride both on and off-road. It is unclear yet whether or not the car will reach India.
