The Korando isn't the obvious choice, but it's refined, packed with equipment and very spacious inside. The warranty is impressive too. But it looks pricey compared to a MG ZS and can't match a Skoda Enyaq for overall appeal.​

Ginny Says

“I can see how a SsangYong 4x4 might be a viable alternative for a buyer wanting a conventional diesel car for towing or driving on rough roads. But I can't see how an electric Korando makes sense at this price.”

Nicki Says

“I don't want you to think I base ALL of my decisions on how a car looks, but the Korando is no beauty and the bits they've changed to make it electric actually make it look stranger. ”

Who are SsangYong?

SsangYong Motor Company is the oldest and fourth largest automotive manufacturer in Korea. SsangYong, meaning “double dragon” specialises in 4x4s, SUVs and pick-up trucks. The brand first arrived in the UK in 1994 with the Musso.

How much is the SsangYong Korando e-Motion?

The cheapest version costs £31,995, which means it is just eligible for the £1,500 government grant, while it lasts.

Is the SsangYong Korando e-Motion a safe car?

The petrol version got a decent 5 star score in the independent NCAP crash tests, so we have no reason to think the electric version will be any worse.

Can you tow with a SsangYong Korando e-Motion?​

Yes. SsangYong is very popular with farmers and caravanners so the Korando can pull up to 1,500kg

How long is the warranty on a SsangYong Korando e-Motion?

The long warranty is a real selling point for Ssangyong. It's 7 years or 150,000 miles.
