Nauanfang: After a bankruptcy, SsangYong is back. And brings with the Korando e-Motion the first electric car of the brand.
Economical: The electric Korando gets by with 16.8 kWh per 100 kilometers – a really good value.
Consumption is pleasantly small
Speaking of data. From 20 to 80 percent in 33 minutes, from completely empty to 80 percent in less than an hour. The charging speed is rather modest with a maximum of 80 kW, others can do that better. And we already learn on paper: governed at 156 km/h, the electric Korando is not for frequent motorway stages, otherwise it would be with that too consumption of 16.8 kWh do not work. And that’s a good value!
Light and shadow: In Comfort mode you notice the 190 hp and 360 Nm, Eco +, on the other hand, is not much fun.
In the Eco + mode, it’s just tough going forward
But now departure. 190 hp and 360 Nm of torque feel okay in comfort mode and really good in “Sport”, with “Eco+” it looks like there is a hindrance follower on it (1500 kg trailer load). Anyone who has decoded the DNA of this car and drives it exactly as it can, will get from A to B in comfort. Steering, suspension, everything has been tuned for maximum deceleration. In fast corners, the body builds up and wobbles a bit. So what? Let’s drive slowly. And enjoy the luxury.

Good entry at the back, sufficient freedom for head and body, the backrest can even be tilted by 32.5 degrees. In front we look at a cockpit, which only feels cheap in the details. Digital speedometer, big touch screen with knob for loud and quiet (thank you!), air conditioning unit underneath, seats with optional heating and ventilation.
