If it looks familiar, it’s because it is – Ssangyong’s latest concept, called the SUT 1, is a reworking of its Actyon Sports, all dressed up and ready to go. To Geneva, in this case.
The company says that the SUT 1 maintains the essential characteristics of a traditional pick-up, but presents a more contemporary look to reflect the styling expected of today’s Sports Utility Truck. Er, ahem, yes.
The concept is similar in size to the current Actyon Sports, at 4,985mm long x 1,910mm wide x 1,755mm high, which really makes it the same vehicle underneath all that nipping and tucking.
It’ll be powered by a 2.0 litre diesel job, which turns out 153 hp and 360 Nm – available from 1,500 to 2,800 rpm – for numbers, and two transmission options are available as partner to the Euro 5 compliant pot, an automatic or a six-speed manual.
There’ll be both two-wheel and four-wheel drive versions of the dressed-up pick-up, which is slated to go on sale across Europe and other markets from early 2012.

Looks promising compared to the pick ups we have around
walao… facelifted or successor of actyon sports???
Wow,looks good but just wanna know Ssangyong is under who now ?
Front looks Lancer-ish. :)
Ssangyong cars drive quite well due to the Mercedes engine, but owning one in Malaysia is too much hassle. A friend of mine bought a Rexton which have been in the garage for more than 5 months, waiting for spare-part to arrive from Korea… Bought at 170k, but now reduced to a mere 60-50k if sold only after 4 years.
subaruish concept look alike.
