Ssangyong gives the buyer a half price upgrade on the huge Turismo MPV.

Following the sales success of its seven seat Turismo MPV in recent months, SsangYong Motor UK has increased its deliveries of cars, and is currently able to offer a ‘half price upgrade’ to customers selecting the next model up in the range. 

Customers ordering the following cars now benefit from savings of up to £1,250.

• Turismo EX adds alloy wheels, leather upholstery, heated seats and privacy glass over the SE model - ‘Half price upgrade’: £1,000
• Turismo EX auto adds the new 7-speed Mercedes-Benz automatic transmission - ‘Half price upgrade’ over the EX manual: £750
• Turismo ELX auto adds 17” alloy wheels, 4x4, solar glass and automatic windscreen wipers - ‘Half price upgrade’ over an EX auto: £1,250

Offering family and business users a car to transport seven adults together with their luggage, the SsangYong Turismo blends multi-role flexibility, a comfortable ride and the equipment of a luxury saloon, and is almost without rival.

At over 5 metres long and with a 3 metre wheelbase, the car is larger than a standard sized MPV people carrier, and powered by a highly efficient 2.2 litre Euro 6 diesel engine.  The Turismo also now offers the choice of a 6-speed manual transmission or new Mercedes-Benz 7-speed automatic.

The car provides a huge interior space where seven adults can travel in supreme comfort with their luggage loaded in the back, without having to compromise on passenger accommodation.  There are three rows of seats as well as a large load space which can be further increased by removing the third row completely.  This gives a massive load carrying capability of between 875 litres with seven adults seated, through to two adults and 3,146 litres of load space.

While rear wheel drive features on the SE and EX, the top of the range ELX includes selectable 4x4 with low ratio as standard.  This makes the Turismo ELX a car you can rely on, and is especially safe and practical whether towing a caravan, horsebox or boat trailer, or when driving across a slippery field.  All Turismo models have an impressive 2 tonne towing capability.

The new Turismo utilises double wishbone front suspension and rear independent multi-link suspension for executive saloon style ride quality.  This set-up offers a quiet and comfortable driving environment with firm body control, a flat ride and optimum stability regardless of the road conditions.
