The Korean concern Sang Yong does not cease to amaze the world with its new cars. Almost the entire range of SsangYong differs primarily in its extraordinary design. There are simply no analogues to such models in the world. Due to this, the company is confidently holding on to the global market. Today we take a look at one of the most successful models of the Korean manufacturer, namely the second generation of Sang Yong Kyron.
Design photo and review
When looking at a photo of an SUV, an association immediately arises with something unusual and at the same time attractive. “Sang Yong Kyron” due to its extraordinary design really seems so bright and, most importantly, an unforgettable crossover. Lost with him in the crowd of cars simply will not succeed. One of the main details inherent in all cars of this brand is unusual optics. In our case, Sang Yong Kyron 2013 has the following form. The block of headlights, made in a triangular shape, harmoniously combines with the chrome grille, a little narrowed vertically and expanded horizontally. The triangular lines of the headlights successfully continue in the embossed hood, which smoothly transitions to the large windshield.
One of the main advantages of the new Sung Yong Kyron crossover (motorists' reviews also mark this point) is its almost 20-centimeter clearance. In the first generation, it was also considerable, but how many cases there were times when Asian manufacturers purposely reduced ground clearance (even four-wheel drive SUVs) to appease the attention of the European public. Perhaps in Germany and France they took root well, but in Russia the situation is different. It is not customary to ride on glamorous SUVs. And although the 2nd generation Sung Yong Kyron belongs to the crossover class, our drivers do not consider it passenger. He confidently stands next to all-wheel drive SUVs, not only externally, but also in terms of engines.
Sang Yong Kyron: Technical Specifications
Under the hood, “Kyron” always had powerful motors, and the appearance of the second generation was no exception. Since 2007, the Korean manufacturer has been equipping its SUVs with a completely new line of engines. It includes a four-cylinder petrol unit with a volume of 2.3 liters (power of 150 horsepower), as well as a two-liter diesel engine with 141 horsepower. Both power plants are distinguished by their economical fuel consumption and low noise level. A six-speed “automatic” and a five-speed “mechanics” - these are the transmissions provided for the second generation Sang Yong Kyron. Owner reviews confirm the fact that the automatic transmission can be switched via small buttons on the steering wheel. This makes crossover control more comfortable and less tiring.
