Thank you for doing an English-language review! I always like to look at reviews of cars that aren't sold in the U.S.

I bought an XLV, but it’s very much the same except in the back. I’m very satysfied with it. Very much car for the money.

it's a good-looking car.

You just earned yourself a subscirber. That was the most honest car review I've watched so far. Keep it up, man.

Both Marek and the Tivoli are sporting the Storm Trooper look. Nice!

Thanks Marek - I think this is one of the most in-depth reviews on the web for this vehicle. I spent 4 hours examining the Tivolis and Korandos last weekend. I am definitely ordering the diesel Tivoli. Other than those ridiculous map strings at the back, it is an awesomely clever car with a great interior and nice curves on the outside. At the moment theres also a special offer in the UK to upgrade from the entry level model to the mid range model at no extra cost. This should be a no-brainer for anyone interested in a crossover SUV. Yes, ILOVIT !!

Very fair assessment as ever, it really is refreshing to have a review that is prepared to highlight the glaring faults as well as commending the good aspects of the vehicle.

Great review! We've just ordered one here in the UK, the ELX version has a Tomtom Sat Nav, reversing camera and front parking sensors, plus a lot more pretty cool stuff.

Thanks, so I heard. But it's a relatively new development. Last year there was no sat nav option.

Great review, thanks. Barely heard of this brand before until I saw one on motorway, taking me over. I am considering it to be my next car but I will wait for another 6 months I guess. Thanks again.

good car and a very good review, clear and informative.

Didn't knew that you are making videos in English. Always watch it in polish. From now on gonna subscribe and look for English videos. Impressed by you accent and overall fluency.

Congratulations for the review. It was done by the book. Please remain also impartially for the future reviews.

I like when you say "IDEOT" overtaking without power. hehehe

ya its nice! I bought one last week the Tivoli XLV

I will definitely buy Tivoli coz I Lov It :) once it come to India. Mahindra & Mahindra changed SsangYong designs & i really liked that!

mate that was an awesome review thank you i want one

Marek , you are great ! Thank you.

Great review!

In the market, but unsure about this model and I need an automatic but not diesel. Enjoyed the review and your delivery. Thanks

Good review 👍🏽

Very nice review.

My Korean friend in South Korea has one and it’s pretty nice. I’ll consider it, but I will wait until 2020 to see how it may improve.

I like front and side styling, the rear not so much. I would consider it if I were looking into a b-segment crossover on a budget, probably a good alternative to a Dacia Duster. I like the interior with the exception of the climate control displays and especially the infotainment display, they look very cheap and the software looks like something I'd expect to see in an aftermarket Kenwood system fitted into an old car..I have the same problem with Kia's system.

Great car to compete with the competition. Thumbs up.

your presentation I like it keep it up

Good review.

Very well review! I am going to check this car soon myself. It is getting wellknown in developing countries mainly because of Korean background which is more trusty comparing with some other Asian country cars. Moreover, it is cheaper than Toyota or Nissan miniSUVs.

Very detailed. Thank you

Probably a good car in fact. Remember what people thought of Skoda a few years ago!

just got one xlv i was surprised with the power of this small engine even in climbing steep mountain roads

how's the reliability?

I agree with your point. Although SUV isn't really my thing, well atleast as a uni student for the time being, if I was on a budget and needed a family car, I'd give Hyundai or Kia a try in the budget segment, SsangYong has got some room for improvement. And if premium brands, I'm sure you can't go wrong with Audi Q3 or the very new X1 which we'll be waiting for you to review.

great review as always Marek :-) do you have in mind maybe to test cars like e-class- audi a6 und bmw 5 in the future? greetings from Germany

+Rafa Jimenez Congrats! Please let me and the viewers know, how is it to drive every day.

looks good value for money you can get a elx for £16800 on the road with full leather the lot.

In India, we have an auto manufacture called Mahindra & Mahindra. They just brought some stocks in Ssangyoung which get them the license to modify and sell the car in India. The catch is, they took the 1st gen 2015 Tovoli, modified it.. rightly said removed all the luxury features of Tivoli, trimmed the boot area to fit the 4mtr tax standard, rebuild (copied original engine and technology) the small engine, added some new lights and changed the bonnet, and now they are selling it as XUV300 as a car from future. The problem is they are selling the top spec of XUV300 same cost as the new generation Tivoli in Europe. Also they are trying to convince people that except the platform and body, rest all car designed and manufactured by Mahindra. At least you guys are lucky to get the extremely unnecessary HDMI port!!!

Looked at buying an almost new Tivoli SE 1.6 Petrol for my lad. At £12,000 in metallic blue with a superb 5 year warranty , I thought it would be perfect for his needs. Sadly he thought it wasn't as kewl as Qashqai or Sportage so he knocked it on the head. Shame really. I think it's a cracking car for the money...

Peter/Callum - I'm in Edinburgh, & will be test driving an Auto some time this week.(At the price, I reckon it's a foregone conclusion, but don't tell the dealer) ;-) - Just 2WD, but Peter, I understand your laddie's reservations. Us older types have a different perspective on life. I suspect that if we thought, when we were his age (assumptions made), as we do currently, we wouldn't be the Groovy Guys we are now.

Yes Marek, I LOV IT if the name doesn't make any sense at all... I did watch both your videos of the two Tivoli's and to be honest I much prefer the preface lifted car, one of the main reasons is the HDMI port, the face lifted car cannot use Android Auto or Apple Carplay so using this sort of system on the preface lifted Tivoli makes sense slighty...

asking about hard work for Tivoli bad Street and low profile tires

I just subscribed to your channel. That was a really good review. Good job! I tried the Tivoli a couple of days ago and I liked it. I realize that it's not a Nissan or Citroen but it's affordable and it offers quite a lot for that price. I just wanted to ask about its performance on the road. How did it feel? Do you reckon Tivoli is a good cruising car/family car? Thanks

Nice review again Marek. I think this a cool car but after having a test drive I got very disappointed with it, very cheap looking inside and quit noise inside. The EuroNCAP test give it only 3 stars, which is below the average European cars.

nice car

Cześć! Its a rebadged KIA Soul. Technical data is nearly the same and dashboard is from Hyndai, first doors are identical etc etc. Keep up good work Marek!

Hi marek you have mentioned in this review that hdmi port can be hack?

@MarekDrives

5 жыл бұрын

This is an old model, so I don't know what updates they made over the years. In this particular car you could theoretically disable the switch preventing HDMI signal to be displayed, when the car is in gear. Probably attached to the automatic gearbox or handbrake in a manual car.

The Tivoli is getting very close to acceptable but not there yet. I like you review.

when it will launch in India

@3:38 I was ROFL'ing man. What a serious joke that is !!!

It's look good but they're need a more work to do,and change the engines to more powerful engines getting strike the rivals.If could buy one?Yes it's cheap and has 5 years warranty and different from the others...

Ssangyoung tivoli XLV test drive

10 litres per 100khms is ridiculous. i get that on my 4 speed 3 litre subaru legacy estate from 2002

Unlike the narrator, I would like to purchase one of these cars. Look at all of the features that come with it - fully loaded. Even the lines make this car look awesome similar look to a Cooper. Hopefully, the price isn’t over the top.

It’s really good car I was have one

It's a remarkable car for such a small manufacturer , having said that I would not buy one.

Can you smell the bs? Hoho, exactly that. Awesome!!

Very nice review! I think I never gonna buy a Tivoli, because of low second hand value.

VW Tiguan is much nicer but then it's also about 50% more cost wise, this is aimed more at the budget mini-SUV market like the Renault Captur or the overpriced Nissan Juke. Either way it's a good unbiased review and as I'm in the market for this type of car I've looked at the Renault and even the new Vitara and overall this one comes out top for me.
