About Ssangyong Rexton
Summary
Ssangyong happens to be a South Korean auto maker, which has introduced its vehicles in the Indian auto market in collaboration with Mahindra & Mahindra. The first model launched by the company was Rexton in 2012, which is a full-fledged sports utility vehicle. During the initial stages, only 2 variants of the model were introduced but after some time, its third version was also launched. Named as RX5, RX6 and RX7, all these versions come equipped with the same 2.7-litre diesel engine, which has a displacement of 2696 cc.
The SUV did not receive much of attention when it made an entry into the Indian automobile sectors, mainly because of the presence of bigger names like Toyota Fortuner and For Endeavour. However, the features, safety and specifications of this model outdid its name and soon it started to be counted as one of the best SUVs in business. The car is stuffed with features and with its high-end look, has become one of the most trusted names in the SUV sector in the country today.

Exterior
As far as exteriors of this SUV are concerned, the car features a sporty design with nicely sculptured cosmetics on its entire body. At a single glance, one will notice its radiant eagle eye-shaped headlight cluster, which has an embedded 'Rexton' emblem. In order to make its side profile catchy, the auto maker is offering 10-spoke designer alloy wheels as part of standard accessory. The car is designed on a triple layer construction platform using an ultra-rigid steel frame. It is believed that this frame reduces the risk of injuries in case of a collision. Laing with, the car has electrically adjustable outside rear view mirrors fitted with LED side turn indicators. Other features at exteriors include premium silver colored roof rails, stylish bumper, chrome painted pair of fog lamps and Rexton branding on scuff plates.
Interior
The interiors of Ssangyong Rexton are much spacious and come equipped with numerous advanced comfort features. These advancements include audible rear parking sensors, fully automatic climate control system and navigation system with pre-loaded maps. All these functions make the journey a lot more easy and convenient. In order to ensure optimum comfort for the driver, the car comes with 8-way manually adjustable seat whereas the top 2 variants are offered with electrically adjustable driver seat. The company also offers a leather wrapped steering wheel, which is finely decorated with additional metal-grain ascents. The space at interiors is commendable, and can easily seat seven passengers.
The auto maker has designed Rexton’s cabin using quality scratch resistant material, which provides it a luxurious look. A lot of chrome inserts are offered at the interiors, which not just adds to its elegance but also provides it a distinctive look.
Engine and Transmission
Ssangyong Rexton is offered in three different variants, named RX5, RX6 and RX7. All the variants of SsangYong Rexton come equipped with the identical 2.7-litre diesel engine, which has a displacement of 2696 cc. This engine has been tuned in two different configurations with top variant churning out a maximum power of 184 bhp with a highest torque of 402 Nm. On the other hand, in other 2 versions, this engine produces a maximum power output of 162 bhp with 340 Nm of peak torque. In the top end variant, the engine comes mated to an automatic gearbox, whereas in the other two trim levels there is a five-speed manual transmission system, which intelligently works with a 4x4 torque-on-demand system.
Performance and Handling
The refinement of the engine of this mean machine is something that you will definitely love. Rexton can easily be one of the smoothest performers on the road and it almost gives a feel of driving an inline, six-cylinder mill. Long gear-shifts allow the SUV to pull at higher revs. However, the downshift is a bit less responsive, making city-driving in this model requiring expert driving skills. The bulky SUV takes 10.63 seconds to reach 100 kilometres per hour from rest when driven by the all-wheel system.
Braking System
Ssangyong Rexton has been equipped with ventilated disc brakes on the front wheels. On the rear wheels, disc brakes do their job efficiently to rein the burly SUV.
Mileage
The 1968 cc Diesel - powered variant delivers a fuel economy of 15 kmpl in city and 17 kmpl on highways.
Safety Features
Rexton is undoubtedly, one of the safest on the road as far it is compared on the basis of equipment. The SUV has been provided with Anti-lock Braking System and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). Apart from these, Ssangyong has enhanced the safety of the car by providing Active Rollover Protection, Anti-Slip Regulation, dual front and rear airbags and Hill Descent Control.
Verdict
If you are someone who loves driving and are not afraid to put your driving skills to test, Ssangyong Rexton is definitely the SUV for you. This monster machine is powerful, well-built and has everything in it to make it the king of the roads. Be it for highway driving, regular urban outing or that family trip on a mountain retreat, Rexton can prove its mettle at ease.
Competition
SsanYong Rexton is in a segment, which is flooded with a number of options, especially in the growing industry. However, the most threat is posed by the Toyota Fortuner and Ford Endeavour. The specifications, features and price are comparable and all the three have been targeting the SUV-loving Indian car lovers.

Rexton Expert Review
Opening
Ssangyong Rexton Review
There is no debating on the fact that Mahindra and Mahindra has evolved into a diversified brand. From starting as a humble jeep maker, the company has it presence felt across multiple platforms. They have always believed in venturing into challenging terrains. Be it their acquisition of electric car company Reva or the two wheeler maker Kinetic Engineering, Mahindra has often raised its own standards.
Even the Ssagyong deal which might have got the critics thinking since it was not a popular brand was a smart move by the company. They wanted to mark their entry in the premium SUV space and thus the Rexton was launched. Toyota Fortuner's success in this range made many jump in but Mahindras were careful to position the Rexton in the most strategic way possible. The result was evident as Fortuner's sales took a dent.
The Rexton offers many features similar to some of the premium SUVs but then it is not priced as much compared to them. We find out more on this flagship offering.
Appearance Exterior
The earlier generation Rexton looked very simple with a conventional design. The radiator grille which seemed a direct fit from its German inspiration along with those weird looking headlamps didn't make sense for it to be continued on the new generation and happily the new car got the needed facelift.
The Ssangyong Rexton has sufficient street presence when compared to the Fortuner. The larger dimensions of the Rexton really work well. Curvy and wide chrome grille gives it a stylish face with large well proportioned sweeping back headlights. The projectors also get the model name etched on it. The long running bonnet gets smooth lines.
Flared side wheel arches and chunky 23575 R16 tyres give it a strong side profile. The ORVMs get embedded turn indicators. There is a subtle chrome lining given to the windows. The upside down rear quarter panel design looks good. Even the rear of the new generation Rexton has been revamped with the use of LEDs in tail lamp. The rear windshield nicely wraps the tail door and merges properly with the D pillar. The only issue is too much of labelling of Ssangyong, RX7, AWD AT Rexton and 'by Mahindra' on the tail door which looks messy. It would have been better with minimal display of names to keep it clean.
The Rexton is a decent looking SUV with enough street presence for a typical chunky SUV fan. The changes that were introduced on this 3rd generation version are impressive.
Appearance Interior
The interiors of Rexton fair well but will not sweep you over with premium quality. The trims material and finishing are not worth complaining though but then they lack the soft touch of a premium quality interior perhaps they wanted it like that.
The leather quality on seats is very impressive and cuddles the occupants with great care. The front row legroom is great with electrically adjustable driver seats. If the front row passengers decide to use the space comfortably then unfortunately the second row passengers might be in soup. The legroom in second row is not sufficient and that paired with its peculiar position makes it uncomfortable. The third row of seats is primarily to keep luggage/groceries and if you decide to replace that with humans it would be a tough job for them to happily hang in there.
Touch screen system with pre loaded navigation maps, steering mounted controls, iPod Aux-in connectivity, automatic dimming lights, fully automatic climatic control and many more features makes the Rexton a laden SUV for the savvy generation. The list of features is impressive but then the overall feel is very functional.
Performance Drive
A look at the comparo sheet and the Rexton comes out a clear winner in power and torque figures over the Toyota Fortuner and Isuzu MU7. The Rexton uses a 5 cylinder 2696cc engine producing 184 PS at 4000 rpm and a torque of 402Nm which is greater than the other two. It also comes in two optional detuned manual transmission variants. The one we had was the 5 speed automatic RX7 variant.
It might look bigger on specs on paper but is not exactly as quick when it comes to real time situation. At lower initial speeds, it takes great efforts to haul the SUV at a higher speed. The automatic shifts don’t earn any accolades for being crisp on shift. It has an evident lag. While others have moved on, Ssangyong still manages to run the show with a 5 speed torque converter unit. There are no gear shifters but instead buttons on the steering wheel to change gears.

Conclusion
Mahindra has pitched the Rexton to battle it against mainstream players like the Hyundai Santa Fe Toyota Fortuner and even the new entrant in this segment which is the Isuzu MU7. The Rexton is for those who want to just enter the premium SUV space without shelling extra for a premium known brand. The list of features it offers almost makes it for the lows felt in interiors and performance. If you want a Bigger SUV for not a bigger price the Rexton would do a good job.
User Reviews for Rexton
Serious issue with clutch
Whats GoodInterior is goods.
What Can ImproveRexton India needed to recall all RX6 car and replace faulty gear box.
This is inform you that I run this car since last years. and every 20000 km there is needed to change clutch set. I have changed clutch set 4 times in last 3 year. Cost for change clutch set is approx 78500/-{18000(Clutch Plate and Pressure Plate and Release Bearing + 55000 (Fly Wheel) + 5500 Labor feel cheated myself after purchasing this SUV.
very poor car a/c,specially in may and june,
Whats Goodonly design and outer look
What Can Improvea/c is really worse,can`t use in may/june period pick up is very poor, you really need to push paddle to get initial pick up
this vechile does not worth at all,with simailar price range, lot of other vechile are available, a/c and pick is really bad.made a mistake to buy this car
Awesome vehicle
Whats GoodAppearance, Interior, smooth transmission, linear acceleration, power & pick up, cabin silence, smooth steering, ride quality.
What Can Improvebetter, if provided more 3rd row leg space, middle row sliding seat & rear seat headrest
In some reviews I have read about the alleged engine roar, lack of steering feedback, body roll etc. But in reality none of these are true regarding this vehicle. The cabin is very silent, with acceleration, the noise of radiator fan become prominent, but not too high. The steering is very light, smooth and responsive. There is no body roll at all, if you drive in the normal speed.
Rexton : The real automatic SUV at real price.
Whats GoodRide quality, power in engine, and all the latest gadgets.
What Can ImproveBreaks, Rear camera, 7-8 speed gear box to give a real push at start.
This car was bought by me in feb end and has done about 17500 km. I got it for my long distance travel from Gurgaon to Nanital In company of about three four passengers. Its automatic gives us a easy drive specially in high traffic areas in Delhi, Ghaziabad, Rampur etc. The ride quality is superb as we have about 25 km stretch that is just potholes. The special features like hill descent control are great help. The engine shows its strength when we need to climb heights on muddy roads and AWD and ABS really come into play (kachha forest area near Bhowali Nanital). So I find if need a safe vehicle to travel distance, moving in traffic area as well as unpaved roads we have the right vehicle at a very reasonable price. Only breaks are a bit let down as compared to Pajaro which I was using earlier but overall it has proved to much better than I had hoped for.
Rexton the best SUV for Indian market
Whats GoodRexton has great style looks performance and features yet it has been reasonably priced by mahindra.
What Can ImproveTurbo lag initially needs to be sorted out.
Go for it if you want a complete package in an SUV. It's even priced very reasonably.
Great vehicle with quite a feel of Luxury
Whats GoodGot my RX7 around 4 months back. Its a real head turner on the road. Great looks and no unnecessary and ugly nostrils on the bonnet. The ride quality is great. Pick up is great, except for first 0.5 second. Interior is very well done. There exists a sense of luxury. Enjoy the Automatic Driver seat and the memory sets. Polarized IRVM is big help in the night. Music System is good and AC is quite powerful.
What Can Improve1. Engine Roar - Not sure anything can be done. More than the noise, the feeling that a lot of Fuel getting burnt is the issue. 2. Glove box - why such a small glove box? There should have been a Freezer box. Even XUV has that. 3. Dashboard needs to be improved. Average mileage, Tripmeter and odometer should be shown together. The clock should be a better looking one. 4. Hand brake should move towards the driver :) 5. Power point in the second row 7. The second row should be able to slide forward so that one can make more space for the third row.
A great vehicle and real value for money. Even after paying another 5lakhs I was not getting same features. Love when people point fingers and turn heads on the road looking at this wonderful beast. Mahindra needs to have separate team to provide customer service. It severly lacks there.
