The SsangYong Korando CSE and four-wheel drive CSE 4×4 have been given a significant power boost together with improved economy and reduced CO2 emissions.
The newly developed e-XDi220 turbo diesel engine meets the demand for a more powerful performance and lower CO2 emissions at the same time. Maximum power is increased to 178ps and torque to 400Nm – up by 19.4% and 11% respectively over the previous Euro 5 diesel 2.0 litre engine fitted to the Korando.
Maximum torque is delivered from a low of 1,400rpm and maintained through a wide range up to 2,800rpm for smooth, progressive driving from the start.
Big strides have also been made with CO2 emissions which have been reduced to 139g/km, down from 147g/km on the previous two-wheel drive, manual transmission Korando, while fuel economy is considerably improved and now up to 53.3mpg (Combined cycle) for the 2-wheel drive manual compared with 47.1mpg on the model it replaces.
Designed by the Italian styling house, Giugiaro, the new Korando 2.2 Commercial makes the perfect business partner – the ideal small delivery van or go-anywhere vehicle for service engineers.
And with prices from just £13,995 (ex VAT) for the two wheel drive CSE model and £15,295 (ex VAT) for the CSE 4×4, Korando is also a sound business decision.
It has a 1312 litre loadspace, 433kg payload and 2 tonne towing ability.
