Read the full Ssangyong Korando ow.ly/fQH9I
A new SUV has to be particularly impressive in terms of luxury, practicality or value for money to compete in what is a cut throat SUV market.
Falling into the value for money category is the fourth generation Ssangyong Korando.
Although Ssangyong is a relatively unknown name in the UK, its large practical cars like the Ssangyong Korando SUV promise a lot of car for very little money.

So which car is this? Well it's pretty bloody obvious when your sitting a foot higher than the other two vehicles. At least make the comparison fair with similar sized vehicles.
I hadn't even heard of Ssangyong until 4 or 5 months ago.
why didnt tell us about its mercedes engine or fuel consumtpion
i have a korando and i love it. for the pice it is perfect and it does great mileage.
Cool. What is it like off-road???
I love the front-end of the Korando, reminds me of the Kia Sportage a bit.
Hi dvillalba3d, kris here. I take your point completely about a direct comparison between the Ssangyong and the two Germans. This was never the intention. Like everything we are doing with video for Motortorque I am trying to make it as fun as possible. The aim of the blind fold test was to demonstrate there is a place for lesser known brands in the uk, plus the fact Ssangyong have a long way to go in improving their product to meet the standards of their competitors such as Mazda and Kia.
:( that is unfortunate. Apart from the obvious problems with the black smoke what do you think of the Korando overall???
The identification test is pretty ridiculous. Blindfold them, put them in similar cars that compete with each other and let then take a ride inside for five minutes each without haven seen the cars before. This test was far from ideal or even useful.
Had never heard of the Ssangyong Korando before, sounds a bit like a GI Joe villain haha! I do like the look of it though and this was an interesting take on a normal review - keep it up.
I love this guy.
i have a diesel 2013 Korando , i am facing serious problem with black cloudy scary smoke . i took it three times to service , and still waiting .
I've a quashqui and its great but I must say I like the look and layout of this car
So you showed them 3 cars, a merc and BM standard saloons and an unknown SUV, THEN blindfolded them? Maybe blindfold them first, don’t give up the day job, hopefully it’s not you tube car reviews?
Of course they will know they aren't in the ssangyong because its higher then the others should have got a BMW SUV and a Mercedes SUV and the ssangyong to make it fair
Korando seems the Best car in its Price level but not sure about the resale value.
Did anyone notice something flew to the left of the screen @ 7:06 - 7:07??? If it's a bird, then why did it emit some sort of light???
i only have the 4x2 diesel. it is great on the road. heaps of power and lots of room. for the price it is great. not sure about the 4x4 but if i got another one i would get the petrol 4x4 auto. petrol were not available when i bought mine.
Ssangyong should be compared to other Korean SUV, (in terms of quality and finishing) is absurd to compare a Korean SUV with luxury German sports car.
(From above) ........With the overall goal to become a household brand such as BMW it's going to be a long road. The format of the blind fold test was a vehicle to have fun in telling this obvious fact, never designed to be a serious comparison. Thanks for watching though, and your feedback has been useful. Out of interest, what do you think of the Korando?
Not many people have, it's still in the shadows a bit - plus with the likes of the Korando SUV, competition is vicious.
that has got to be the most stupid car revue ever what a waste of 5 minutes of my life that was

Agreed
its a diesel
285miles on a full tank
Great manly design with outdated quality. Not yet on the league of Hyundai. But I like that their car resembles a SUV, not a slightly tall car. Sorry if I was out of line didn't know your line of comparisons. It was the first video from you I saw. But the comparison was a bit over the top.
he is perfect
i thought a james bond bad guy
Seriously???!! You think the competition of Ssangyong is Mercedes and BMW? What was the point? Proving people is not stupid and can tell the difference between expensive and affordable cars?? And if that wasn't enough, you dare compare 2 luxury sedans with a taller SUV?? Who will get that wrong? I'll tell you who, whomever gave you a job instead of giving it to a more competent reporter!
I owed one the MPG IS RUBBISH
Haha yeh I saw it, must be superman, that is the only logical explanation.
