Great car with a dynamic 1.5 engine and a 7-speed automatic; a downside is the electronics, which often shut off—terrible when reversing!!! It could also have a bigger tank because it averages 7 liters and at most 700 km.

SsangYong Torres

SsangYong Torres cuts a rugged, purposeful silhouette that feels more expensive than its price tag, offering generously practical packaging and a no-nonsense feature set. It drives with surprisingly assured manners and genuine off-road appetite, making it a clever choice for buyers who want real SUV capability without badge snobbery.
