The SsangYong Korando is one of those examples that stand out for its quality/price ratio. It is a compact SUV that is sold for rates more typical of a lower segment, since currently part of 17,800 euros. And the latest move by the Korean brand has consisted of completing its standard equipment without raising its rate to try to attract potential customers. He SsangYong Korando is completed with the Black Pack standard in all its versions, with that package that was previously optional.
As we said, the Korando now benefits from an equipment package that mainly modifies its aesthetics, with the color black as the protagonist. It is noticeable in that front with a glossy black grille, which matches the line of the headlights. The red accent is maintained on the lower grille and thewheels are 19 inches of the Limited trim. Another aspect that draws a lot of attention is that the letters that give the model its name have also been dyed black to give that additional point of contrast.
The same applies to the rear, with the line between the black taillights and a gloss black rear diffuser. As could be done previously, we opt for the two-tone bodywork to have both the roof, its bars, the pillars and the mirrors in the favorite tone of the Black Pack. Inside the Korando the truth is that there are no notable new features. They already had enough Piano Black surfaces and that will make it match, even though it compromises the perceived quality.
What is undoubtable is the habitability of the model, which is still available in two different versions. The protagonist is the 1.5 Turbo engine (G15T), which can be chosen with 149 HP and a six-speed manual gearbox or with 163 HP and automatic transmission. This second option also allows all-wheel drive to be fitted. Besides, can be adapted to LPG from the factory and obtain the ECO label from the DGT. In any case, expanding the equipment and maintaining the base price of 17,800 euros is always good news, as long as it is financed.
