A new low cost SsangYong Korando SE is available. This highly competent SUV is now available at £14,995 on the road. The model is the 149bhp 2.0-litre turbodiesel model. The SE features Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) with Hill Start Assist, Active Rollover Protection (ARP) and ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD). It comes equipped with roof rails, tinted glass and rear parking sensors, while inside there are electric windows, a leather covered steering wheel and gear shift, air conditioning, cruise control and a Kenwood MP3 CD and RDS radio with iPod and Bluetooth connectivity, remote audio controls and six speakers. It is also available through a special purchase scheme: “In the current economy, customers tell us they want an affordable car, a competitive purchase plan and the peace of mind of a long and ‘quibble free’ warranty – that’s exactly what the new Korando delivers,” Steve Gray, marketing and communications director of SsangYong told 4×4 Magazine. “The result is a car that is not only fantastic value at just £14,995, but also comes with a level of standard equipment many of the so called ‘value brands’ don’t even have on their options list.” For those looking for a family SUV, this new price Korando will appeal.
