The SsangYong Chairman is a full-size luxury sedan produced by the South Korean automaker SsangYong Motor from 1997 to 2011. The Chairman was initially marketed as a rebadged version of the Mercedes-Benz W140 S-Class, but later models incorporated more distinct design elements and technology. It was available in various configurations, including a standard wheelbase sedan, a long-wheelbase version known as the "Chairman W," and a stretched limousine version.

The Chairman was known for its luxurious interior, equipped with features like leather upholstery, wood trim, and advanced sound systems. It also offered a range of powerful engine options, including the Mercedes-Benz M119 V8 engine, which provided smooth performance and ample power. The Chairman targeted a niche market of luxury car buyers in South Korea, who appreciated its combination of Mercedes-Benz technology and SsangYong's unique styling. However, despite its initial success, the Chairman faced competition from other established luxury brands, and its production was discontinued in 2011. Although no longer in production, the SsangYong Chairman remains a significant part of SsangYong's history and is recognized as one of the first Korean-made vehicles to challenge luxury brands from Europe and Japan.
