Designed to deliver more in every respect.

More presence. More prestige. More strength. More safety. More style. More space.

Styled inside and out with graceful detailing that complements its rugged off-road capability, it looks and feels like a game-changer.

An exterior inspired by the ‘Dignified Motion’ of SsangYong’s design language. An interior that achieves a balance between comfort and control.

The perfectly balanced interior offers generous space, contemporary luxury and impressive technology.

The cabin is trimmed with quilted nappa leather. The advanced infotainment system includes DAB radio, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and 3D ‘around-view’ monitoring, with everything displayed in HD on a 9.2-inch screen*.

As you’d expect from over 60 years of SsangYong 4-wheel drive heritage, it’s a magnificently muscular 4x4.

With a 3.5 tonne towing capability† it's easily capable of towing large caravans and horse trailers. Powered by a 2.2 litre turbo diesel engine delivering maximum power of 181PS and maximum torque of 420Nm† with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed Mercedes-Benz automatic transmission.

An imposing full-sized 4x4 built on a high-strength body-on-frame construction. 4,850mm long, 1,960mm wide, 1,825mm high, on a wheelbase of 2,865mm. It's one of the strongest in its class.

It’s also one of the safest, featuring a comprehensive suite of the latest electronic safety aids and up to 9 airbags.

And, of course, it comes with the priceless peace-of-mind of SsangYong’s industry-leading 5-year limitless mileage warranty.

In fact, the new Rexton offers more of just about everything you’d expect from a 4x4 SUV specialist. Except the price.

E X T E R I O R S T Y L I N G

The new Rexton is a bold step forward by SsangYong.

Immediately impressive with its sheer presence and dynamic lines, it’s a rugged and real 4x4 that lives and breathes ‘now’.

Yet so gracefully styled that its workhorse capability is a surprise to all but the driver.

The exterior styling flows from SsangYong’s concept of ‘Dignified Motion’.

All of this is backed by four generations of Rexton and over 60 years of 4-wheel drive specialism.

The new Rexton achieves a perfect balance between form and function, topped off by just a little luxury.

E X T E R I O R F E A T U R E S

The new Rexton is designed to feel fresh and modern. This is instantly expressed by its exterior detailing.

The distinctive front-end is led by a grille that takes its inspiration from the spread wings of a bird in flight.

The bold headlight units group together LED daytime running lights, high-intensity headlamps for better night vision, LED fog lights, positioning lamps and directional indicators.

The rear of the car has LED rear combination side lights, spoiler with high-mounted LED stop light and LED number plate lights.

And from all angles the car is enhanced by the road-owning 20-inch alloy wheels†.

†20-inch alloy wheels available on Ultimate models.

I N T E R I O R S T Y L I N G

The interior has been designed to be easy on the eye and on the mind.

The whole approach to the cabin is to simply make everything around the driver feel wonderfully instinctive and refreshingly enjoyable.

Generous shoulder and headroom. Multi-adjustable seating. Automated air-conditioning*. Quilted black or ivory nappa leather trim. Ambient night lighting†.

Attention to detail is there for all to see. The control-in-comfort is for all to feel.

*Multi-adjustable seating and automated air-conditioning available on ELX and Ultimate models.

The interior is designed to be a relaxing space that feels good and thinks smart.

A cool, calm haven of sophisticated luxury and state-of-the-art fingertip control.

Advanced climate control. Intelligent seating. Supervision instrument cluster. Keyless start. Heated steering wheel.* Leading-edge infotainment system.

The new Rexton has it all and more.

C L I M A T E C O N T R O L

Literally the freshest aspect of the car.

The new Rexton features Dual-Zone fully-automatic air-conditioning*. It’s as impressive as it sounds.

The system gives independent temperature control to both front seats. (And also to the 3rd row of the ELX seven-seater models.) The built-in air-clean system even blocks fine dust and odours from entering the cabin.

S E A T F U N C T I O N S

The comfort of the car you drive in starts with the seat you sit on. And how easily you can adjust it.

In the new Rexton ELX, the driver’s seat is 8-way power-adjustable and the front passenger seat is 6-way power-adjustable. The front and rear seats are heated.

Move to the Ultimate and the front seats are also ventilated. And the driver’s seat has a memory feature to instantly recall your ideal seat and door-mirror positions.

The ever-thinking brain is the Supervision Cluster*.

An ingenious array of essential information and safety features displayed simply on a large 7-inch LCD screen.

It provides quick, easy access to a wealth of important information. Including a whole range of safety warnings such as lane departure warnings,

parking sensors, navigation assist, tyre direction warnings and smart power tailgate warnings.

It is also the means to control a whole range of features – even the turn signal warning that can be set to sound like a cricket!

So that the Rexton driver will always be in-the-know, at-a-glance.

K E Y L E S S S T A R T

The new Rexton starts and stops at the push of a button*.

The windows open and close the same way, even when the engine is off.

And on the Ultimate the tailgate opens from the push of a button either from within the car, or via the key fob.

H E A T E D S T E E R I N G W H E E L

Rexton has a steering wheel that feels good to the touch, shaped to give a strong grip regardless of conditions and with fingertip control of entertainment, phone and cruise control.

And in addition, cold days no longer mean cold hands for drivers. The new Rexton* warms things up nicely with a heated steering wheel.

S T Y L E A N D S P A C E

Designed to be somewhere you’d be happy to spend a lot of time in.

The cabin is spacious and luxurious with plenty of shoulder and headroom. Legroom in the second

row is especially generous and second-row seats may be double-folded to maximise the load space.

In fact, the new Rexton’s size gives you one of the largest load spaces in its sector. It can easily accommodate rear-seat passengers and four golf bags in the boot.

Something else made easy is loading the boot with your hands full. With the smart key in your pocket or bag, the tailgate will simply pop open automatically if you stand near the back of the car for a few seconds†.

†Smart power tailgate available on Ultimate models.

7 seats5 seatsI N T E R I O R A D A P T A B I L I T Y

At SsangYong, we believe that you should never need to adapt to your car, your car should always be capable of adapting to you.

The new Rexton is incredibly flexible. Available with either 5 or 7 seats and both with a huge capacity for luggage.

Measured up to window level, the 5-seat model offers 1,977 litres of rear boot space with the seats down and 820 litres of boot space with the seats up.

In 7-seat models, along with the second row seats folding 60:40, the third row can be folded individually 50:50 to give more flexibility. Access to these rear seats is made easy by the double-folding second row seats.

In 5-seat models, the second row of seats split 60:40 with a folding centre armrest. The second row seats also fold completely flat for large loads, increasing the rear boot space to 1,977 litres.

P O W E R T R A I N

The new Rexton offers plenty of brawn and brain.

The new 2.2 litre Euro 6 engine delivers maximum power of 181PS at 4000rpm and maximum torque of 420Nm** at 1600-2600rpm and is designed to provide low-end torque for effortless cruising whatever the conditions, whatever the load.

This highly-efficient, extremely quiet E-XDI220 engine provides progressive acceleration from a standing start.

T R A N S M I S S I O N T H E C H O I C E I S Y O U R S

6-speed manual transmission? Or 7-speed Mercedes-Benz E-Tronic automatic transmission?

The new Rexton offers a choice of both. And both offer gear changes with world-class durability and smoothness.

The new Rexton takes every surface in its stride.

A smooth combination of double-wishbone suspension at the front and 10-link independent suspension at the rear** enables the car to deliver great ride-quality across a range of terrains – from city roads to serious off-roading.

**420Nm and 10-link independent suspension available on automatic transmission.

F L U E N T I N 4 X 4

At SsangYong, we don’t just understand 4x4, we’re fluent in it. Specialists with over 60 years of 4-wheel drive experience.

The new Rexton 4x4 system draws on all that experience of continuously advancing 4x4 technology.

Its selectable 4-wheel drive system is reassuringly capable, whatever the need, whatever the weather.

When the going gets really tough, you can simply select ‘low-range’ which splits the torque equally between front and rear axles to provide all-round traction and ensure optimum grip across even the most challenging terrain.

For greater efficiency and fuel-economy, the vehicle features a selectable 4x4 option with power delivered to the rear wheels for normal road use. 4-wheel drive can be selected electronically when required and low-ratio selected when the off-road conditions become more challenging.

T O W I N G P R O W E S S

The new Rexton will make light work of hauling a large caravan, horse, boat or work trailer.

It has a strong ladder chassis that provides a substantial towing platform and a mighty towing capability of 3.5 tonnes*.

Add that to the 4x4 capability and we’re sure you’ll understand why we call it ‘magnificently muscular’.

HILL DESCENT CONTROL

The new Rexton also helps you stay in control when you find yourself driving downhill.

Hill Descent Control activates at low speeds when the vehicle is handling a steep downhill drive and automatically controls the rate of descent.

H I L L S T A R T A S S I S T

Rolling backwards during a hill start is a thing of the past with the new Rexton.

In these kinds of situations, its Hill Start Assist feature acts as an automatic handbrake and is a great ally to have on your side when driving in tricky conditions or when towing.

*3.5 tonnes with automatic transmission.

S A F E T Y

The new Rexton is one of the strongest and safest cars in its class.

It’s built on a high-strength body-on-frame construction and features a comprehensive suite of the latest electronic safety aids.

For further reassurance, it’s also available with up to 9 airbags*.

H I G H S T R E N G T H S T E E L C O N S T R U C T I O N

The new Rexton is built on extremely strong foundations.

Its body-on-frame construction is built using 1.5Gpa ultra-strength steel - a world first.

In fact, 81.7% of the steel plate in the car’s body uses high-strength, high-density, high-tensile steel.

This provides superb rigidity and protection in a collision to maximise the safe space within the cabin.

E L E C T O N I C B R A K E F O R C E D I S T R I B U T I O N A N T I - L O C K B R A K E S Y S T E M

EBD-ABS distributes brake force appropriately to the front and rear wheels according to the vehicle’s load of passengers and/or cargo.

E L E C T R O N I C S T A B I L I T Y P R O G R A M M E

ESP constantly monitors road conditions and vehicle status and automatically adjusts engine output and braking whenever the driver is about to lose control. It integrates the ABS, active rollover protection, anti-slip regulation and brake-force assist.

B R A K E A S S I S T S Y S T E M

BAS automatically activates full braking in an emergency to reduce the vehicle’s braking distance to help avoid an accident.

9 A I R B A G S

For maximum passenger protection on impact, the car is equipped with up to 9 airbags* - the most in its class.

These include a knee-airbag for the driver and rear passenger side and curtain airbags - safety features normally only found in prestige vehicles.

I S O F I X

The new Rexton also takes the safety of children seriously.

The car is equipped with ISOFIX child-seat mountings to the rear outer seats to ensure that child seats are attached firmly and rigidly.

T Y R E P R E S S U R E M O N I T O R I N G S Y S T E M

Tyre pressure is something the driver will never be unsure about in the new Rexton.

Tyre pressure monitoring is built into the car’s electronics and displayed via the trip computer.

Each tyre is continually checked for pressure and the driver is immediately warned of unsafe readings.

*9 airbags available on ELX and Ultimate models.

Autonomous Emergency Braking

If a collision appears imminent AEB will warn the driver and if there is insufficient response automatically apply the brakes.

Lane Change Assist†

LCA detects vehicles approaching rapidly from behind and flashes a warning light on the outside mirror to alert the driver.

Traffic Sign Recognition

TSR detects an upcoming traffic sign, reads it via character-recognition software and relays the relevant icon to the infotainment display.

Forward Collision Warning

FCW alerts the driver when another vehicle or pedestrian appears in the path of the vehicle.

Blind Spot Detection†

BSD senses vehicles coming up in the blind spot behind or alongside the car and warns the driver via a flashing light on the outside mirror.

Lane Departure Warning

LDW warns the driver whenever the vehicle begins to move out of its lane, unless the directional indicators are applied.

High Beam Assist

HBA automatically lowers the headlights when an approaching vehicle is detected, making night-driving easier.

Rear Cross-Traffic Alert†

RCTA assists the driver when reversing by detecting the presence of vehicles approaching behind on either side.

S M A R T S A F E T Y

The smarter the car, the safer the drive.

The new Rexton is one of the smartest and safest in its class.

It’s packed with a whole range of the latest electronic driver assistance safety features.

Emergency Stop Signal

ESS activates the flashing emergency lights to alert driver’s behind the car when the vehicle makes a sudden stop.

†LCA, BSB, and RCTA available on Ultimate models.

3D AROUND-VIEW MONITORING SYSTEM†

This system makes parking easier and safer giving the driver confidence even in the tightest spaces.

The centre display provides an aerial view of the vehicle and any obstacles in the immediate surroundings.

APPLE CARPLAY & GOOGLE ANDROID AUTO

Anyone with an Apple or Android phone can now easily connect to the multimedia system to make calls, check messages, listen to music and navigate via the car’s display screen.
