Former Ssangyong will begin to produce pickups under a new brand

KGM Mobility has announced the appearance of the MUSSO brand. Under this brand, the former Ssangyong intends to produce electric pickups with a supporting body. Judging by Tiser, the first-born will be the serial version of the KGM O100 concept car two years ago. Technically, the Torres crossover will be close to the novelty. Then, in the MUSSO gamut, frame pickups with an accent on off -road may appear.

KGM O100 show-car debuted in March 2023, and then the Koreans did not hide that the platform was borrowed from Torres EVX. The MUSSO brand is taken from the family of frame SUVs and pickups of the second half of the 1990s, and since Korean Muso means “rhino”, it is this animal that is used in advertising.

The cost of the new Ssangyong in Russia became known to what KGM Tivoli will be for Russia: the Rexton motor and equipment, but not Ssangyong: what will be the SUV returning to Russia

The presentation of the first MUSSO model will take place until the end of March, and South Korea will become a priority market. Probably, at the start of sales, the pickup will have the only 207-horsepower electric motor. In the future, KGM plans to return to the segment of frame trucks: at least a more muscular pickup with exhaust pipes, a suspension elevator and a car in the back were depicted in sketches.

For Russians, the development of the KGM brand and its sub -brands is curious, because we intend to collect Korean cars. Localization is scheduled for four new products: crossovers and SUVs Torres, Rexton, Tivoli and Korando.
