Street Stance and Rugged Looks

The SsangYong Rexton arrives with a deliberate, upright presence that reads more capable than flashy: a broad grille, squared wheel arches and a high bonnet make it look at home on a muddy track or a motorway overtaking lane. At 4,850 mm long, 1,960 mm wide and 1,825 mm tall it occupies the large-SUV space and won’t hide in a supermarket car park. Current versions include the Rexton e‑XDI 220 Diesel Automatic All‑Wheel Drive with 202 HP and combined consumption around 8.2 L/100 km, which reinforces the no-nonsense, go-anywhere image.

Cabin Feel: Simple, Solid, Practical

Inside the Rexton the theme is robust practicality rather than boutique luxury: materials are mostly hard-wearing plastics and soft-touch where it matters around the armrests and dash tops, with a sensible, upright layout that’s easy to use. Controls are large and clear, the seats are supportive for long distances and trim levels bring nicer finishes and leather if budget allows. Infotainment and switchgear prioritise function over flair, so expect less sparkle than premium rivals but a family-friendly environment that won’t look tired after a few years of use.

Carrying People and Stuff — The Numbers That Matter

Space is a strong suit: the Rexton is offered with five- or seven-seat layouts and the boot ranges from roughly 784 litres with five seats to around 236 litres with all seven in use, expanding to as much as 1,977 litres or 1,806 litres when rear seats are folded flat. The tall cabin and wide track make rear-seat access and child-seat fitting straightforward, while a 70‑litre tank and a healthy payload (about 655–770 kg) mean long trips and weekend kit are no problem. Practical touches such as split-folding seats and a flat load floor turn the Rexton into a genuine family hauler or light-adventure vehicle.

On the Move: Comfortable, Competent, Not Sporty

The Rexton’s 2.1‑litre diesel produces 202 HP and a healthy 441 Nm of torque, delivering 0–100 km/h in around 10.6 seconds; that’s more than adequate for overtaking and loaded motorway cruising but it’s not aimed at drivers chasing lap times. The weight (about 2,145–2,180 kg) and tall body mean a soft suspension tune with noticeable body roll in fast corners, yet the ride absorbs rough surfaces well and the all-wheel drive system gives traction confidence off the bitumen. Overall the setup favours comfort and towability over razor-sharp handling, making it a relaxed long-distance cruiser.

Fuel Use, CO2 and Real-World Range

Official combined consumption sits at about 8.2 L/100 km with CO2 emissions in the low-200s g/km and a G efficiency class, so the Rexton is efficient for its size but won’t compete with modern hybrids for town economy. With a 70-litre tank the theoretical range is in the order of 800–850 km between fills on mixed driving, though urban use and heavy loads will reduce that figure. For long-distance work, towing or frequent motorway mileage the diesel still makes pragmatic sense compared with petrol alternatives.

Tech, Aids and Everyday Intelligence

Equipment levels have improved so infotainment systems support smartphone mirroring and touchscreen operation with clear menus, while higher trims add comfort and safety features to match mainstream rivals. Driver assistance tends to cover the essentials — adaptive cruise, autonomous emergency braking and parking aids — with more advanced items usually reserved for top-spec models or option packages. The overall electronic package is competent and user-friendly, designed more for stress-free commuting and family trips than for tech-head bragging rights.

Who Should Buy the Rexton?

The Rexton suits buyers who want a large, practical SUV with genuine off-road and towing credibility without paying premium-badge prices: families, rural owners and those who need space and torque for trailers or boats. It’s less appealing to drivers prioritising sporty dynamics, cutting-edge cabin luxury or the lightest CO2 figures, but it’s a sensible choice where durability, load capacity and long-range diesel efficiency matter. For anyone building a practical, capable SUV around real-world utility, the Rexton is a considered, value-conscious contender.
