The SsangYong Korando, produced from 1996 to 2006, was the second generation of the Korean automaker's popular SUV model. This iteration marked a significant departure from its predecessor, adopting a more modern and refined design language. The Korando's boxy and utilitarian exterior, reminiscent of early Jeep models, was replaced with smoother lines, a more aerodynamic profile, and an overall larger size. Under the hood, the Korando offered a range of gasoline and diesel engines, providing a balance of power and fuel efficiency. The vehicle's robust construction, ladder frame chassis, and four-wheel drive system made it a capable off-roader, capable of tackling challenging terrains.

The SsangYong Korando was a significant player in the mid-size SUV market during its production run, finding success in both domestic and international markets. It was particularly popular in Europe, where it was lauded for its practicality, affordability, and rugged reliability. The vehicle's spacious cabin, generous cargo space, and comfortable ride made it an attractive option for families and outdoor enthusiasts alike. While known for its durability, the Korando was not without its shortcomings. Critics pointed to the vehicle's somewhat dated interior design, lackluster handling, and less than stellar fuel economy. Nonetheless, the SsangYong Korando remained a popular choice for those seeking a dependable and capable SUV at a competitive price. Its lasting legacy lies in its contribution to the rise of SsangYong as a global automotive player and its appeal to a diverse market of drivers seeking a robust and versatile vehicle.
