Vehicle model
SsangYong Gamme SsangYong - utilitaires ou VUS
The utility and SUV range is the core of SsangYong/KGM's offering. It comprises the small urban Tivoli SUV, the family Korando crossover, the mid-size Torres SUV, the large seven-seat Rexton on a ladder frame, as well as the Musso pickup and the Actyon crossover. These vehicles target versatile use: daily driving, family life, towing, and off-road getaways depending on the model. They are positioned as rugged, affordable choices against established brands. In Quebec, these vehicles are not officially distributed (the brand is absent from North America) and remain very rare. For the tire and wheel buyer, these SUVs typically use diameters from 16 to 19 inches depending on the model and trim; you must always check the exact dimensions and bolt pattern specific to the vehicle. Approved winter tires are mandatory and essential in Quebec, especially for the all-wheel-drive versions valued in winter conditions.

Comme SsangYong/KGM n'est pas distribuée en Amérique du Nord, ses véhicules sont rares au Québec, mais l'on peut en croiser sur le marché gris. Les VUS de la gamme utilisent généralement des jantes de 16 à 19 pouces selon le modèle et la finition (les plus petits comme le Tivoli en bas de gamme, le Rexton et le Torres en haut). Les entraxes (bolt pattern) varient d'un modèle à l'autre : il est essentiel de vérifier les dimensions exactes inscrites sur le flanc du pneu et la fiche du véhicule avant d'acheter pneus ou jantes. Comme pour tout véhicule au Québec, des pneus d'hiver homologués sont obligatoires et fortement recommandés vu la rudesse de la saison froide.
