Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

SsangYong isn’t the best-respected brand in the UK, but the Ssangyong Rexton does offer a spacious interior and off-road ability at a very competitive price.

One engine, a 2.7-litre turbodiesel, powers the Rexton. Sadly, it’s not that great. It’s slow and harsh, and it also disappoints with poor fuel economy and CO2 emissions which place it in the highest VED tax band. The Rexton’s other road manners aren’t great, either. The handling is wallowy, the steering is stodgy with barely any feel, and the ride is thoroughly uncultured.

Granted, the Rexton is spacious inside and comes with decent equipment, but the cheap-feeling materials make it a very uninspiring environment.
