SsangYong Rodius 2 Phase 1 2013

The SsangYong Rodius is a versatile Korean minivan launched in 2004, designed to rival large European and Asian family utilities in the passenger transport segment. Since its inception, the SsangYong Rodius history is part of a pragmatic approach to accessibility, offering generous interior space and remarkable modularity to accommodate up to seven or eight passengers depending on configurations. The successive SsangYong Rodius generations have marked the Korean manufacturer's evolution, with a first generation (2004-2012) characterized by streamlined lines and aggressive pricing, followed by a second generation (2012-2019) refined in design and equipped with more powerful and efficient diesel engines. The technical specifications of the SsangYong Rodius model have progressively integrated comfort and safety equipment to meet the expectations of large families, in direct competition with the Citroën C8 and the Kia Carnival in its accessible premium minivan positioning. The model succeeded in conquering an audience sensitive to volume-to-price ratio, thanks to its optimized external dimensions, flexible interior and robust engines, while maintaining controlled fuel consumption. Today, the Rodius continues to embody the SsangYong philosophy: a utilitarian minivan with no compromises on space, intended for professionals and demanding families seeking practicality.
