Ssangyong Korando Sports

They don't look all that bad ;-)

They're also packed with some smart goodies like ESP.

Get yourself down to the Ssangyong showroom in Pattaya. They will bite your hand off if you show any enthusiasm and look like a genuine buyer. They don't sell many.

Hint: 500,000 Baht import tax and freighting costs may have something to do with it. Possibly weeks waiting for parts.

Agree, it looks quiet nice. First decent looking car this company has made.

Actually all the latest model utes look good. Ford, Chevy, Isuzu and Mazda. About time someone gave Toyota a shake up. Vigo is old hat and should have been upgraded 2 models ago. Their interiors are out of the dark ages and they've been bluffing consumers way too long. Now that there are better alternatives they will respond and a new model will follow.

And just to be clear. The Vigo has been a good car and market leader for a long time. I'm just saying it's time to improve.

Yes, the Korando is a well-equipped car.

Might be competing more with the SUV category rather than pick-ups including the Vigo though.
