Lycanthrope 4th Gear November 1, 2016 Share November 1, 2016 ya ..went to check out during the car show , the main complain is the design of the interior door ... its designed too high up .. hence resting the elbow can be a challenge I got the Tivoli Compact Diesel 1.5M. yet to collect the car, cos just signed during the car expo last weekend.

For me it is ok because I don't usually have the habit of resting my elbow at the window... in the end still have to clean the window because of the elbow mark. I usually rest my arm on the side of the door. not so high up. High good, got more privacy. scratch thigh nobody can see. hahaha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy69 Neutral Newbie November 1, 2016 Share November 1, 2016 Hi, I saw the ssangyong stavic at the recent car expo. And i am pretty impressed by its exterior look (Yes looks can be subjective). Its an mpv but looks like an suv which will have a presence on the road. Thats what I am looking for. And I am so reluctant to get a alphard/vellfire cos it really makes me look like an uncle and of course the price will go past the $200k mark. I am currently driving an 8.5 year old Toyota fortuner btw. Prado could be a replacement ption but it can't beat the 9 seater stavic I would like to know whether anyone has owned a ssangyong car before? Any review? Can it last 10 years? Cos I reckon getting a ssangyong will have big depreciation impact once it leaves the showroom. What about servicing and parts? Is motorway reliable? Really appreciate your comments cos I am seriously thinking of getting this car. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really appreciate your comments cos I am seriously thinking of getting this car. Thanks! This is general comment. If you like a car, just go for it. All cars are made to last you more than 10 years. You just have to take care of them. Any cars that you purchase will drop it's value by a large amount. It is across the board. Not brand specific. Servicing can be done anywhere. Parts just get from motorway. What's more impt? A car u don't enjoy but it is easy to maintain, or just a car u love? It's a 10 year relationship you are looking for. Go for the feel.

Hi mason, agree with your comments. I couldn't fathom myself shelling out so much money to get a car I don't really like. I think my issue with Ssangyong is that it is a lesser known brand (apart in Korea), and I understand the fact that resale value is extremely bad, hence getting a brand new ssangyong the financial risk would be high. Therefore, i am wondering ssangyong owners do they have issues in their car? To hold on to a car for ten years is very long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah they are very focused on the leasing scheme.

seethestars November 5, 2016 Share November 5, 2016 pity ...shouldn't they try harder to attract more buyer ... If you know ur products are good, why lower the prices? if you aware in Korea, they awarded "Best Car Of the Year 2016" and "Best Family Car 2016" !!! Have you seen SsangYong produce any saloon cars? thus, they are strong in SUV.

Lycanthrope 4th Gear November 5, 2016 Share November 5, 2016 Yes .. they can be voted the best anywhere and their cars are sold off the shelves like other popular brands ... the thing is .. we are referring to Singapore market and not elsewhere. No doubt you have a good product here .. probably a winning formula , but in this Singapore market , you probably are not a popular brand , and base on Singaporean mindset , not popular means better not touch unless my pocket is loaded to try . Why would i want to buy Ssangyoung when Kia and Hyundai have better specs and cheaper price , Don't get me started on Chevrolet. Hence still should try even harder to capture buyer's hearts and mind.

Weesern Clutched November 6, 2016 Share November 6, 2016 If look at how much it is priced in UK. It's consider high in Singapore if u compare with pricing of other make. This is one factor I find not very consistent. In UK, they are trying to penetrate the market so they price it more affordable. I thought it will be the same in Singapore but no Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
seethestars November 6, 2016 Share November 6, 2016 (edited) Yes .. they can be voted the best anywhere and their cars are sold off the shelves like other popular brands ... the thing is .. we are referring to Singapore market and not elsewhere. No doubt you have a good product here .. probably a winning formula , but in this Singapore market , you probably are not a popular brand , and base on Singaporean mindset , not popular means better not touch unless my pocket is loaded to try .

Disclaimer : I am speaking on my own point of view , no defamatory intended. Kia Sportage and Hyundai Tucson are 2L car, how to compare, whereby SsangYong Tivoli is 1.6L? Not to forget they come with 18"Rim thus fuel consumption slightly higher. Before SsangYong went bankruptcy, SsangYong started a technology partnership with Daimler-Benz The deal was for SsangYong to develop an SUV with Mercedes-Benz technology. This resulted in the Musso and other models Mahindra & Mahindra Limited acquired SsangYong in 2011. In order for them to regroup, rebrand, they spent millions in research and development (R&D), design, e-XGI 160 (petrol) and e-XDI 160 (turbocharged diesel), new engines developed over a period of 3 yrs, along with Aisin's transmission thus resulted in Tivoli compact 2015 and Tivoli XLV 2016, therefore the prices on high side. Give them a few yrs more, they'll catch up. Currently, we got 0% DownPayment Scheme for Uber/Grab !!! Security Deposit (refundable) Monthly $1.4++ Brand NEW SUV (Petrol or Diesel) 5 Yrs Warrently (*Engine & Transmission Covered) 5 Yrs FREE Servicing NCD is transferrable Unlimited Mileage Cap Feel Free to contact me or email if you got any enquiries Motorway SsangYong Eddie Edited November 6, 2016 by seethestars ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
