SsangYong will show SUT 1 Concept at Geneva

Even as maintaining the important features of a usual pick-up, this concept shows a more fashionable look to reflect the styling expected of today’s Sports Utility Truck.

The concept is comparable in size to the current Actyon Sports – 4 985mm long, 1 910mm wide and 1 755mm high, and with a generous 3 060mm wheelbase. Satisfying ecological demands for Euro 5 compliance, the new 2.0 litre diesel engine produces a maximum output of 155ps and maximum torque of 360Nm. Optimum torque is delivered across a low yet broad rev range of 1,500-2,800rpm, giving effortless acceleration from low engine speeds.

The new model will offer the choice of either 6-speed manual or automatic transmission in either 2-wheel or 4-wheel drive models. It will go on sale across Europe and other markets from early 2012.
