Actyon stations: SsangYong's all-new ute goes on sale here in early 2007.

SsangYong reveals the Actyon Sports - a replacement for the Musso Sports
utility

27 April 2006


SSANGYONG has released images of its Musso Sports utility replacement, which
makes its world debut today as the Actyon Sports at the Busan motor show in
South Korea.

SsangYong Australia spokesman Brad Leach said the ute was due for release in
Australia early next year and that pricing would be "sharp".

"We will keep the value-for-money equation in the new car," he said. The
current 2.9-litre turbo-diesel Musso starts from $27,990 and represents a
significant slice of SsangYong sales in Australia.


Mr Leach said the new dual-cab version was significantly bigger than the
existing model, with room for five adults and a bigger load tray.

Based on the XMT concept, the newcomer (codenamed Q100) is built off the
same platform as the Kyron and Actyon 4WD wagons and is expected to be
available from launch with a 104kW/310Nm 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine.

A 121kW/342Nm 2.7-litre CDi diesel and a 162kW/312Nm 3.2-litre inline six
petrol engine will also be available.

The Actyon compact 4WD wagon arrives around September.

Fecking hideous!

Then again, SsangYong is not known to produce anything even slightly
plausible in the looks dept.

It's a catch 22 vehicle. You'd have to be blind to buy one to drive but
you can't drive one because you're blind.

I suspect that I'll never see one on our roads.

It's close, but the last model Magna clearly holds that title, and most
likely will for some time.

Faark - what is it with these imbeciles?
A EVEN BIGGER "C" Pillar than the last model.
Very stylish. Right up to the minute - just like the stuff that gets
cameras all over the place linked into a display somewhere
distracting?
Yeah, right.
If you can't see properly out of a particular car, damm good reason
not to buy one, I reckon.
I can picture the sales droids busting a gut to make sure test drivers
*never* have to reverse:-)

Due to blindness?

Looks to me like the designers are taking influence from the cartoon anime
world. Some people might get off on this.

them ugly??

That has got to be the worst looking ute I have ever seen. I generally don't care too much about how a car looks, but even I couldn't buy that.
