Given the current situation, finding cars at an affordable price is not an easy task, but the SUV that we bring you today is proof that there are still cars that can be bought at a good price. Being the most 4×4 SUV in its category and with a huge cabin capable of offering up to 7 seats or a lot of luggagethe SsangYong Rexton is one of those cars that has improved significantly in recent years, becoming a clear reference among the large family SUVsas it continues to bet on a very tight pricing policy.
The Rexton, a true off-road 4×4
The Rexton that is currently sold on the market upholds a curious philosophy that combines the best of two worlds. On the one hand offers true off-road possibilities by installing all-wheel drive, reduction, self-locking rear differential and enjoy a generous 224 mm ground clearancebut on the other hand it also offers an SUV approach that proves itself with its wide interior spacethe possibilities available in infotainment or the improvement in overall quality that it has suffered.
The Rexton range in Spain only allows you to choose one 202 hp 2.2-litre turbodiesel enginethis propellant being associated with a 8-speed automatic transmission. Clearly we are talking about a very logical configuration for a car of this size and possibilities, especially from the point of view of real use, since traveling with the whole family and a full trunk will not mean shooting up the cost per kilometer. According to the WLTP homologation figures, the average consumption of the Rexton is 7.7 l/100 km and it obtains the C emissions label.
If we take a look at the available equipment, in the SsangYong Rexton it is possible to have a very large endowmentfinding leather upholstery for all seats, electrical adjustments, ventilation and heating in the front seats, dual-zone climate control, 12.3″ digital instrument panel, 8″ multimedia system compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, cruise control active, involuntary lane departure alert, emergency braking, front and rear parking sensors, rear view camera, etc.
The Rexton is unrivaled in value for money, there is no alternative that offers more space, equipment and 4×4 possibilities for less money.
Price and rivals of the SsangYong Rexton
When talking about rates, the SsangYong Rexton has a price that starts at 38,200 eurosan amount that converts him by right into the cheapest 7-seater 4×4 in its categorybut which can also be even lowered if we take into account the frequent promotional campaigns offered by the brand in its cars.
direct rivals available with all-wheel drive such as the Skoda Kodiaq (€45,895), the SEAT Tarraco (€50,480) or the Toyota Highlander (€57,550), as well as other true SUVs such as the Land Rover Discovery (€87,150) or the Toyota Land Cruiser (53,900 €) not only have significantly higher prices, but also do not allow such capable use off-road in the first three cases.
