SsangYong Korando Sports

SsangYong has revealed its new 2013 Korando Sports, which aims to bridge the gap between a commercial vehicle and a family car. However, despite its name, it is a completely separate model to the Kornado compact SUV.

This first appeared as the SUT-1 (sport utility) concept at motor shows around the world in 2011 before making its way to the 2012 Geneva motor show, production-ready.

The front features a mesh grille, trapezoidal bumper and black headlight fasteners, while from the side a sharp belt line flows to the rear. The rear windshield has been widened to allow driver's extra visibility. A large, flat rear deck provides a 2.04 square meter load area.

Inside, large front, side and rear windows feature alongside black and metallic finishes along with an LED illuminated instrument cluster. The rear passenger seats can be reclined by up to 29 degrees meaning they are offered greater comfort than in most crew cabs.
