The new e-XDi220 diesel engines now pack 178 PS (176 hp) and 400 Nm (295 lb-ft) of torque, which is an increase of 19.4% and 11% respectively compared to the older Euro 5 2.0-liter engine.
On the Korando, CO2 emissions have been reduced to 139g/km, down from 147g/km, whereas fuel economy has gone up to 53.3 mpg UK (5.3 l/100km) (mixed cycle) for the 2-wheel drive manual version, as opposed to 47.1 mpg UK (6.0 l/100km) on the previous version.
The 2016 Korando also comes with several equipment enhancements such as clear glass director indicators, piano black radiator grille and newly designed 16" and 17" alloys wheels, as well as 18" diamond cut alloy wheels for the flagship model.
Inside, EX and ELX spec versions get a 7" high-res touchscreen with audio streaming from smart devices and a link to the rear view camera - whereas the top of the range ELX also gets a TomTom sat-nav system.
The entry level Korando SE starts from £15,995 (2WD) or £17,495 (4WD) and features smart cloth trim, electric windows, air conditioning, cruise control, 16" wheels, RDS/Bluetooth radio and six airbags, to go with its roof rails, front fog lights and rear parcel shelf, all standard.
The Rexton, SsangYong's flagship SUV has also been enhanced for 2016 by the addition of the Euro 6 compliant power unit. On top of that, Rexton buyers get a choice of either a 6-speed manual transmission or a new Mercedes-Benz 7-speed automatic. Inside the ELX model you'll find beige or grey leather, a new multi-function leather-covered steering wheel, auto-dipping rear view mirror, heated rear seats and sat-nav.
