SsangYong Rexton 2022 review: Does the facelifted ute-based large SUV have Isuzu MU-X's number?

As far as ute-based large SUVs are concerned, the SsangYong Rexton doesn't get anywhere near the same level of attention as the best sellers.
But with the timely arrival of its midlife facelift, it's out to make its presence felt.
So, are revised looks, more technology, an upgraded engine and a new transmission enough to give Isuzu MU-X buyers pause for thought?

    This guy quickly gives good comments about the Rexton but goes into in depth at its faults. I think these critics are influenced by outside influences, if you get my drift . I have test driven the Rexton and its super quiet and smooth. The stereo is actually really good. Im about to purchase one as they are terrific value for money and leave the other cars he mentioned for dead.

    Ok so watching this video has confirmed to me that this guy has no idea. The drive is smooth, quiet and punchy, no body sway, no rocking, nice suspension, no road noise and not a lot of issues. This guy is the sort that buys a Fiat I reckon.

    I bought the 2022 Rexton ELX last year,I must admit the comment on the suspension was true.I opted for the ironman upgraded springs and shocks and that was an improvement. Once you get accustomed to its size I think its fun to drive and am happy with it overall, but why isn't there a grab handle for the front seats ( the second row has them) because at 170 cm height its a tip toe to get into , though once in the sets are very comfortable.

    Ours should be here mid march. Multiple test drives against the Mitsubishi p-sports and the Rexton pretty much was better in most categories we thought While I loved the sports and have owned 3 tritons over the years, the sports felt smaller, nosier and harsher on the poor roads around here compared to the Rexton.

    No mention of SsangYong being bankrupt ? Perhaps potential buyers should be warned about this in a review... What is the financial risk of buying one, and do you want to be exposed to this risk ? Are accessories available ? Winch compatible bullbar etc ? When I was looking at buying a Musso in 2020, a factory bullbar was promised was delayed, and abandoned, presumably due to financial pressures...
