London, 10 April 2015: The contemporary SsangYong Tivoli B-segment SUV arrives in the UK this summer with prices starting from just £12,950 (Rs. 11.79 lakhs).
“This is a car that will really put SsangYong on the map and change brand perceptions,” says Paul Williams, CEO of SsangYong Motor UK. “By any criteria but especially style, interior finish and value for money, Tivoli stands close scrutiny. The verdict from those who have already seen and driven the car is that we’re on to a winner. But ultimately it’s the customer who wins: this is a modern, safe, well-built and comprehensively equipped car, and with a price and warranty no one else can match. Anyone considering a small SUV will have to put it on their list.”
The Tivoli is extremely well equipped – see specification list attached, and for simplicity the range comprises three main model options – SE, EX and ELX, while for those who want further individualisation, the My Tivoli programme offers a wide number of further choices.
