I just took delivery of an Ultimate model last week for business and personal use (towing a horse float). It has a 3500kg tow capacity (with tow bar and electric brakes fitted) and handled towing a double angle-load horse float last weekend with ease. Loving this car so far! So much luxury for the price! (I gave up on Jeep releasing a new model of the Grand Cherokee, which was my last tow vehicle).
A "proper 4WD" yet not mentioning anything which makes this the case...? WHAT makes it a proper 4WD? Driving modes? Diff lock? Clearance? I fail to see how other than the 4WD badge stuck on. Also, no mention of that weird floor gap in the back above the boot lip, or what, if any, spare tyre there is, or showing how the 2nd row seats fold down? This review could be a few minutes longer at least.
You didn't touch on whether the back air vents run hot and cold air and whether there are other drink holder options for drink holder in back seats if using all back seats.
Before you add a body lift, you first may want to get proper tires and at least one diff lock. If you still have money left, you could try and find a lift. In the EU at least, there's none available atm.
Hi there! Could you show how the car seats fit in the 2nd row side-by -side?? We ‘re searching for a 7seat SUV that can be used with 3 little kids (all of them are under 4 years) If we buy a booster, we also need an infant car seat (0-I), a car seat of the next kategory (0/I/II) and the booster. Is this 2 nd row roomy enough for 3 child seats???
"Just look at the room between my knees" @ 2:11 loool! Yes Childish I know but it tickled me in a "Oo'er Missus" kinda way!!! 7 seater is way to big though.
Rexton. As this car's body is build on the steel frame not like others where they build the body first then extend the frame. Boby on frame structure is the toughest standard where they use it on most military vehicles ( Ssangyoung build amy trucks during Korean War). However you may found it a bit stiff driving on rough surface.
@@amrashraf9559 i will still pick rexton. Because fortuner's suspension is way too stiff. If you need comfortable ride, rexton is better. But Toyota has bigger engine with power output.
@@craigpodsprojames2500 i'm in Israel and vehicles are under a heavy tax.Korean suv's are about 30% cheaper than the Japanees.2002 i 'was in the market' for suv(new)realising,the Japanees were 'too rich for my blood' i went into a scangyong dealership looking for the petrol(3.2 v6)..to my dissapointment they had stopped selling the v6.They only had diesels-a 'big no no' for me.I went across the street to Mitsubishi and found/bought the pajero sport 3litre v6
You don't put small children in a seat with airbags. It's illegal, that's why you can't put them in the front seat if a sedan. If you're going to do a review stop and think a moment before your mouth rattles.

how's your Rexton? can you update us.
Not bad. Ssangyong's line up is getting top notch. That Rexton will give other SUVs a run for their money.
Looks like the 3rd Korean brand might just give the others a run for the money this time.
It does have 3rd row airbags by the way 👍
It's posco steel and strong
Got one will be staying with them
Well it would make more sense to review the entry model than the loaded one
Your reviews are getting much better lately. I guess you'll be invited to the weekly Tools In The Shed soon.
Great review, you should do a review of the 2022 model.

Got the older rexton W. Test driven the new one. Very nice cabin though the 19"rims cause the ride quality to drop a little (UK roads though!)
You can fit 17 inch wheels if you prefer a more comfy ride. Besides I only know of three wheel sizes : 17, 18 and 20 inch.
Very nice review Ma'am.
Nice weather
Hi Can u plz reply
When Alturus G4 model of Reston as for INDIA willl launch outlet as Maninda & Mahindra
Is it viable to add a 2.0 in. suspension lift in the new Rexton 4WD version & (+0) upsize tyre for extensive off road use???

In india Mahindra Motor Launched it's called Alturas G4
Alturas G4 look more Expensive and Nice refined then this one
Hey Faruk. Mahindra owns Ssangyong and Alturas G4 is the rexton G4.
Not a review, more of a sales pitch.
Worth it?
Fariz Erdinata yes for off-roading or towing but for the school run the Santa Fe does much better

Andrea Pethő barely but I wouldn’t, get the Kia carnival or Toyota granvia

GREAT REVIEW
Which is more solid and durable
This rexton or the new kia sorento ?

@@maxpcint so if compared with with the toyota fortuner , which is better and more solid ?
@@amrashraf9559 i will still pick rexton. Because fortuner's suspension is way too stiff. If you need comfortable ride, rexton is better. But Toyota has bigger engine with power output.
@@maxpcint but i think fortuner has way more solidity and reliability than rexton
@@amrashraf9559 have a test drive first. They all have good and bad.
Much like it Utes Counterpart the Musso
It's a shame they don't have a petrol version(in early 2000s they had the 3.2litre v6 from Mercedes
noam Zacks they do in the base model but not sure about ultimate

Yo wtf, there was no mention if your mysterious 185cm husband can fit in the car.
no doubt; even if he takes on extra pounds :) believe me
And she just said "My family" at the start not "My family of 4".......
Hahahaha dude I'm in tears lol
Haha...
Did they have a busy week and had to go shopping ;-) Did it all fit in the car lmao
Good Review :)
I think the previous model Rexton looks much better
Put a tv monitor like nissan terra

Did better than Holden i mean dawoo eh their the same
"There's not much room or airbags for the third row" how is that a surprise? It's not a minivan. Average review
We need compare vs Mazda cx 9
That "proper 4WD" comment ....
Lol yes, because every school run means off road! Ridiculous monsters these things
The 2.2 Diesel could possibly have a reliability issue
Now this company ownd by Indian mahindra group
Pappu Gandhi 70%
75% bro and it is enough aliens 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's Mahendra alturas G4
Harpreet khipal it’s the other way round.
First time happened that No likes and No views.. Im the first 1 :)
It's an Indian brand
It's a Korean brand majority owned by Mahindra (India). At the moment at least. Mahindra is looking to sell some of their share due to COVID
@@scottbennett9203 they declared BANKRUPTCY!
@@cherlloydbycherlloyd3897 They back on the track again. Will be a new Korean owner.
She needs handcuffs.
