2018 SsangYong Stavic/Turismo facelift revealed

Reworked people-mover revealed for the UK market.


The facelifted SsangYong Turismo — last sold in Australia as the SsangYong Stavic — has been revealed in the UK.

The people mover's front end styling has been reworked, with the car gaining slimmer headlights, restyled bumpers, and a corporate grille that ties it stylistically to more modern SsangYong models, such as the Korando, Rexton and Tivoli.

There also seem to be changes to the sheetmetal, with the bonnet and front quarter panels refashioned ever-so-slightly to fit in with the new design.

The rear seems to be completely untouched by the design department, while the interior looks as though it has only received some specification upgrades.

As before, the Turismo is 5130mm long, rides on a 3000mm wheelbase, and seats up to seven people. In other markets, the Turismo is offered with up to 11 seats.

For the UK, the large people mover is motivated by a 2.2-litre turbo-diesel with 131kW of power and 400Nm of torque.

A six-speed manual transmission is standard on most models, while a seven-speed Mercedes-Benz automatic is available. Most variants have rear-wheel drive, but the range-topping model comes fitted with four-wheel drive and a low-range transfer case.

The top-shelf variant is equipped with 17-inch alloy wheel, heated front seats, rain-sensing wipers, automatic headlights, rear view camera, and an infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.
