Ssangyong Korando
Sports DMZ
Ssangyong's British arm has revealed a
new DMZ limited edition for the Korando Sports, featuring army-inspired
camouflaged paintwork, roof rails and 18in alloy wheels.
There are no mechanical changes done
over this new limited edition, with the DMZ still powered by a 2.0-litre diesel
engine producing 155 PS and 360 Nm of torque between 1,500 rpm and 2,800 rpm.
Fuel economy is a combined 37.7 mpg UK
while the flat rear deck offers enough space to take a euro pallet, with a payload
rating of 1 tonne and a towing capability of up to 2,7 tonnes.
Customers can also choose from a range
of optional hard covers for weather protection and security over the load area.
Ssangyong takes pride at the fact that
the Korando Sports offers a coil-spring multi-link rear suspension instead of
the dated leaf springs, giving their pickup a near-SUV character on the road
and better NVH levels.
The DMZ is priced at £ 19,195 (excluding
VAT), with the regular models starting at £ 14,495 (again, no VAT), making the
Korando Sports the cheapest double cab pickup truck you can buy in the UK.
