Ssangyong is in dire straits and is currently under court receivership, but while its financial books get sorted out the show must go on, the Seoul Motor Show that is, and the company will be exhibiting the Ssangyong C200 Eco Concept there.
The C200 is a SUV similiar in size to the Tiguan, RAV4, CR-V and Qashqai and uses Ssangyong’s first monocoque chassis for an SUV. Under its hood is the same 175 horsepower 2.0 litre turbodiesel engine as the first C200 and this is mated to a 6-speed automatic. Ssangyong has also used alot of aluminium in its supension components to help reduce weight. They intend to give the C200 an European feel when it comes to ride and handling.
Also set to be released at the show is a hybrid turbodiesel Kyron, combining Ssangyong’s turbodiesel engine with a Torque Split Deevice which combines or cuts off power with an electric motor. Ssangyong says tests have shown that fuel efficiency can be improved by 25%, while emissions can drop by 10% for nitrogen oxide and 15% for particulates.

1st!!!
yes2..first time to be the first..;)
wah..look strong and smart..but maybe not space wise like satria neo..
yeah..hybrid diesel is the way to go..we can produce diesel from palm oil, sugar cane and corn if the oil price hike again..i think it is the bridge before we go completely to renewable energy for our car..
Weird enough though, but this looks cute!
like the front grill
maybe got something to do with enviroment..
but the front end look similat to Audi..
am I right?
I think that the whole Ssangyong range need to be revamped. Actyon and Kyron are from the same class so they are ending up at fighting on their own. By the way, i think it will be another re-badged Roewe SUV as China had some spy photo before.
This is a proper Ssangyong car should look. nice design..
Not bad but I think KIA hit it BEST with their SOUL range.
ugly ..

here, take some sweets & go away… what's with u guys? stop being childish!
anyway, car look good… the only thing i hate is the headlight..
look like k-car if u didnt mention it's a SUV. BTW the grille takes the design cue from THE BIRD NEST. Overall look muscular. I like.
but first we need to see will it be liquified or this concept will never come to light.
