    2016 Paris Motor Show: Ssangyong LIV-2 concept unveiled

    Korean car maker Ssangyong has unveiled their new design concept named LIV-2. The concept’s name LIV stands for ‘Limitless Interface Vehicle’ and will be the design language for future mid-size and large SUVs from the manufacturer. Previously code named as project Y400, is the newest iteration of the LIV-1 which was shown at the Soul Motor show in 2013. 

    The LIV-2 concept is almost production ready and can be badged as Rexton, expected to be introduced in 2017. Therefore being a flagship model for the Ssangyong it could be introduced in newer markets around the world. 

    The body-on-frame construction of the LIV-2 is powered by a 2.2-litre turbo diesel engine putting out 180bhp and 420Nm of torque. Mated to a Mercedes-Benz seven-speed automatic transmission. The car is also available with a newly developed petrol 2.0-litre GDi turbo engine. Which makes 222bhp and 350Nm, coupled to either a six-speed automatic or a six-speed manual gearbox.

    On the inside, the intention of Ssangyong was to create a contemporary executive lounge within a luxury limousine. Therefore it gets individual recliners at rear with vibration massage, fine leather and piano-black finished panels along with mood adjusting lighting. It is equipped with a suite of advanced communication technologies like Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto enhance connectivity, wifi mirroring device. This can all be controlled from the second-row centre console, which gives access to the infotainment system via a touch control panel for 'surround sound' and premium entertainment quality, as well as unrestricted smartphone use with headsets and phone recharging. 

    The white colour finished on the body looks premium and the electronic sidesteps integrate illuminated path to the car. The grille of LIV-2 is designed to resemble the spread wings of a bird and will be carried out through its range. In the safety commitment, the car features nine airbags including curtain and driver’s knee airbag. It has got emergency braking system with autonomous braking, radar and laser scanning with camera sensors, traffic safety assists (TSA) and high beam assistance (HBA). There is also lane departure warning, with blind spot detection and lane change assist. 

    Company’s CEO Johng-sik Choi said, "The LIV-2 showcases our luxurious approach to the extremely popular SUV concept, while also applying advanced technologies and high levels of safety. We are confident that this is going to be another landmark model and will take the SsangYong brand to the next level. Thereafter, we will be adding a new model every year for the next couple of years, each one designed to broaden our brand appeal to customer groups and international markets."

    Along with the LIV-2 at the Paris Motor show was updated Tivoli and Tivoli XLV SUVs for 2017.
