Features
Stylish Exterior
The Rexton stands apart with its stunning good looks, starting up front with SsangYong's trademark grille, unique bonnet character lines, projection head lamps, simple yet refined tail lamp assembly, plus powerful performance to match the vehicles sophisticated appearance. All this adds up to a balanced design that states you're driving something truly special.
RX270Xdi
The SsangYong 3rd-generation, intercooled turbo, common rail 2.7 litre diesel generates maximum power of 121kW @ 4000rpm and maximum torque of 340Nm @ 2400rpm. It is equipped with a sophisticated direct injection system that boosts power and fuel efficiency for cleaner, more economical operation. Maximum torque is delivered over virtually the entire rpm range, providing quick engine response and outstanding acceleration when passing.
RX270XVT SPR & Sport
The new SPR/Sport model engine is a common rail variable turbo 2.7 litre diesel which generates maximum power of 137kW @ 4000rpm and maximum torque of 402Nm @ 1600rpm.
Optional T-Tronic 5-Speed Automatic Transmission.
The transmission system comes with SsangYong's innovative steering wheel-mounted shift buttons. An AI programme monitors and "remembers" the driver's gear shifting habits and determines the shift points for optimal smoothness and fuel efficiency. The transmission is linked directly to the engine via a lock-up torque converter, minimising energy loss for even greater fuel savings. And T-Tronic comes with Winter Mode, allowing you to start out or back up in second gear to prevent slipping on snow or ice.
Thumbs Up Manual Shift Feature
Switches are conveniently located on both the gearshift knob and steering wheel for you to shift up(+) or down(-) manually for a sportier driving sensation.
Torque on Demand (Base)
Most of the power is allocated to the rear wheels under normal driving conditions, resulting in essentially a two-wheel drive. Should road conditions worsen and the wheels start to slip, the system will automatically transfer more torque to the front wheels to add greater stability.
All Wheel Drive (SPR & Sport)
The All Wheel Drive transfer case keeps the vehicle operating the full time 4WD function and distributes the driving force to front wheels and rear wheels in the ratio of 40:60
Suspension
Double Wishbone in Front
The front wheels are suspended by lower and upper arms to maintain optimal wheel contact for better driving stability. Ride smoothness is further enhanced by dual action gas-filled shock absorbers, stabiliser bar and coil springs.
Rear Rigid Axle With 5-link Coil Springs on Xdi Model
While a vehicle is moving, impact to the wheels comes from every direction. The five-link rear suspension system offers the best cushion against such shocks to give The Rexton its uniquely passenger-car ride personality.
The greater the number of links, the better the suspension system is at dispersing shock impact and improving ride comfort. Superior traction is achieved by increasing the freedom of wheel movement in responding to road surface conditions. Minimising the load carried by each link results in outstanding durability.8 Link Independent Rear Suspension - Only available on Sport & SPR Models
Provides outstanding driving safety and precision, used on luxury saloonsSafety
Active Safety Systems to Anticipate Dangerous Situations
Prepared to protect you and your family should the unthinkable ever occur.
Electronic Stability Program on all Rexton Models
The SPR features ESP (Electronic Stability Program) which integrates the active safety technologies of EBD, ABS and BAS to help control the vehicle in all situations. It detects and corrects wheel slippage by adjusting acceleration and braking.
Airbags - Safety in Numbers
Dual airbags installed on the steering wheel and crush pad protect the head and chest of the driver and passenger from frontal collision. While on the limited model, the side airbags protect passengers from the waist to the head in a side impact.
Automatic Air Conditioning with AQS
A handy option that includes air filter system to ensure cabin climate quality.
Separate Air Conditioning for 3rd Row - SPR Only
Enhances climate control precision in the rear.
Feature List
- Fully automatic air conditioning with temperature sensor and outside temperature gauge
- Dual zone air conditioning with independent climate control unit for the rear seats
