After a 13-year absence and with a new organiser, Automotion Events, the British Motor Show is being held at Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre and promises to be a fun family day out. Described as “a show like no other motor show ever seen”, attendees can explore a wide variety of transport options from the past, present and future.
As well as displaying its multi-award winning vehicles on its stand, SsangYong Motors, along with new dealer Normandy Garage of Guildford, will host a test-drive area within the show grounds where visitors will be able to experience driving the newly-launched facelifted Musso, Rexton and Korando first-hand.
The show stand will feature the brands flagship, Rexton – the powerful 7-seat SUV; the Korando, the family SUV built with adventure in mind; Tivoli, the small SUV that doesn’t compromise on space; and new Musso, the bold, hardworking pick-up that is unmatched in towing and weight-carrying, which also boasts the longest load area in the UK market. Details will also be available on the brand’s first pure-electric vehicle, Korando e-Motion at the event which is set to launch in November this year.
SsangYong’s brand ambassador, Fuzz Townshend, will take to the stage where Car SOS Live will deliver an interactive experience with demonstration areas showcasing several of the workshop crew and artisans that appear on the show, chatting to the public and displaying their skills. Fuzz will also be present on the SsangYong stand on varying occasions throughout the event to sign autographs and meet with fans personally. In addition, the new Musso will be star of the show on the live stage with Wheeler Dealer, Mike Brewer, at intervals throughout the event.
Kevin Griffin, managing director at SsangYong Motors UK, said: “We’re delighted to have a presence at this year’s British Motor Show and to be able to showcase our award-winning range of vehicles. The new facelifted Musso with make its debut at the event and will also be available for visitors to take on a test drive which is exciting. It will be a great opportunity for Car SOS fans to meet personally with Fuzz on our stand too. To have new Musso on the live stage with Mike Brewer is a great opportunity too. It’s set to be a great event and we are looking forward to a busy few days.”
