The pick-up segment is one of the most limited In our country. The current model offer can be counted on the fingers of one hand and that is only due to its low level of sales in Spain. This type of vehicle has always been conceived as the perfect mount for hard work and for going off-road, despite the fact that they are much closer to passenger cars due to other benefits than a few years ago. Today we come to talk about why the SsangYong Musso Sports shouldn’t go unnoticed by pick-up buyers.
It takes its name from the legendary SUV from the 90s with Mercedes engines, although it has now been converted into something very different, but which maintains the essence of the brand. On an aesthetic level, a pick-up is not made to be pretty, but rather to be impressive. The Musso Sports achieves this perfectly, thanks to a very vertical front dominated by the huge grill. The rear is finished off by a cargo box which is one of its strong points and which stands above its direct rivals.
It has a lot of space, more than other renowned models such as the Ford Ranger or Toyota Hilux. It is likely that inside I can not plant them Expensive in terms of quality or technology, but the Korean model is very well resolved. It shares a technical base with the Rexton and that translates into a cabin with the same layout and elements. The multimedia system is the same as in other passenger cars and makes it a car very usable on a daily basis. The interior space is more than correct and the rear seats usable.
The SsangYong Musso Sports also wants to stand out for the trim level that it can have in its superior finishes, standing out for elements such as leather seats with electrical adjustments, heating and ventilation. Also for its dynamic behavior, which seeks high comfort thanks to the multi-link rear suspension of the top-of-the-range Limited, always without losing off-road skills thanks to its e-XDi 220 diesel engine and the tractiontotal connectable with reducer and self-locking rear.
Although the main value for which this model should not go unnoticed is its price. Starting cost 26,500 euros and that puts it below its rivals, being the most affordable pick-up. Taking into account the aforementioned benefits, we have one of the models with the best value for money-equipment of the segment and an option clearly to be taken into account.
