We get behind the wheel of SsangYong’s flagship model the  Rexton W writes Geraldine Herbert What is it? This is the third generation SsangYong  Rexton  and it joins the the smaller Korando Crossover and the Rodius MPV sevenseater in the SsangYong range Who is it aimed at? Priced from €38,000, with rugged looks, a full 2.6-tonne towing capacity and off road capability the Rexton would appear to offer a lot of car for the money. Styling? First impressions are pretty good, it is chunky with decent road presence thanks to the new front and rear bumpers; new grille, headlights and foglamps. Under the Bonnet? The Rexton W is powered by a  two-litre turbo diesel engine putting out 155bhp with lots of low end pulling power and this gives the car a towing capacity of 2.6 tones (perfect for horseboxes or boats) and it comes equipped with a low-range gearbox and hill descent control so it should be  fairly capable off road. What about inside? SsangYong  interiors have never been the last word in design elegance but the aluminium-effect and chrome finishes along with soft-touch materials result in a greater impression of quality and it feels well built On the Road? There is  a lot of engine noise  that intrudes into the cabin and this is made all the worse because the automatic gear box is slow to change so this means it revs quite high a lot of the time. The ride is uncomfortable and you feel every bump in the road,  its wallowy around corners and the steering is really vague . And Safety? The car features a comprehensive package of active safety features including Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Active Rollover Protection (ARP), ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and Hill Descent Control (HDC).  There are dual front and side air bags, while ISO-Fix and tether anchorage points for child seats are fitted on the second row. It has not however been tested by the EuroNCAP. Options? It is well equipped , some of the standard equipment on the Rexton includes cruise control, climate control, Bluetooth and USB connectivity, 18-inch alloy wheels, heated seats and rear parking sensors. Will it break the bank? The Rexton W is a 4X4 and there are three versions. A two-seat Commercial €34,119, a five-seat Business/utility €38,329 and a Limited Edition seven-seater passenger €44,474. Our test car was the business edition and it is a full five-seater. Economy? The...
