Brand History
The SsangYong Story
SsangYong Motor traces its roots to 1954 and grew into South Korea's main specialist in four-wheel-drive and SUV models, with vehicles like the Korando and Musso, the latter developed with Mercedes-Benz engine technology in the 1990s. The company had a turbulent ownership history, passing through Daewoo, China's SAIC, and India's Mahindra & Mahindra, and entering court receivership more than once.
