SsangYong Motor UK has announced the price list for all models, which will be imported in the United Kingdom.

The future of SsangYong as a global vehicle producer has recently been secured following a 70 per cent acquisition of the Korean company by Indian engineering conglomerate Mahindra & Mahindra, and now the brand's future in the UK is assured thanks to new investment in the importing company.

"This is superb news for our dealers and customers who have been so loyal to the brand," commented Paul Williams, managing director of the current importer.

SsangYong Motor UK will operate from the existing parts logistics centre in Luton and administration office in Fleet.
