SsangYong New Musso Pickup
The new SsangYong Musso pickup features a 1 tonne payload, 3 tonne towing
capability, powered by a new Euro 6-compliant turbo-diesel engine, and it's all for the price of £ 15,995 ex VAT, with sales set to
begin this month.
Due to its towing capability
and competitive pricing, the Musso is ideal for pulling a work/boat trailer, or
a horse box.
The 2.2-liter diesel packs 178 PS and 400 Nm of torque, with the latter available from 1,400 rpm to 2,800 rpm.
There's also a multi-link rear suspension and progressive rear coil springs,
making this the only pickup at this price range to offer such a setup.
The range consists of two models, the Musso SE and
EX. The former comes with a new-look front grille and dashboard, as well as
silver 18" alloys and a "leather look" TPU seat upholstery. As
for the better-spec'd EX, it's distinguished by black 18" alloys, roof
rails, front LED daytime running lights, leather heated front seats, powere operated
driver's seat, automatic air conditioning, automatic headlights, rain sensing
wipers and a 7" touchscreen with iPod & Bluetooth connectivity.
The EX with a manual transmission is priced at
£ 17,995 ex VAT, whereas the model featuring the six-speed Aisin automatic costs
£ 18,995 ex VAT.
