SsangYong Turismo (2013 - 2019) 2.2 SE 5d Owner Review

Bought as a pre-reg with 100mi on clock. It's MASSIVE which is the main reason we bought it as we do a lot of holidays by car in Europe. The only other 7 seaters that can also accommodate everyone's luggage are van conversions for at least 50% more money. It's very comfortable and encourages smooth, controlled driving. Thankfully it drives like a car, not a van - the power band is nice and wide in each gear. We don't tow but if you might want to, be assured this car has VAST amounts of torque - it doesn't seem to notice having 6 adult passengers and a baby with all his gear on board. Negatives if you can call them that: The climate control is obsessed with turning the a/c on, so more often than not I have it on a manual setting. The owner's manual is written in a very odd form of English. The tyre size is a bit unusual which is causing some difficulties finding appropriate winter tyres. And yes it is thirsty, but no more so than equivalents from larger manufacturers.
