CEO of SsangYong Motor UK Paul Williams said: “Confidence in the SsangYong brand is unquestionably growing, and our business proposition for dealers is increasingly being recognised as these 10 new appointments testify.

“We warmly welcome each and every one to the SsangYong franchise, which has grown by 29 new dealerships in less than two years.

“Our four model range has been extensively refreshed - face-lifted Korando, new Rexton W and Turismo, and greatly improved Korando Sports pick-up - offering dealers and their customers a complete range of SUV and 4x4 vehicles, plus our all-new B-segment X100 crossover arrives mid-next year.

“That confidence is also translating into sales, with SsangYong now one of the fastest growing brands in the market this year”.
