The SsangYong Rexton, first introduced in 2001, was a mid-size SUV produced by the South Korean automaker SsangYong Motor. This robust and capable vehicle was designed to compete with other established players in the SUV market, aiming to offer a compelling combination of practicality, off-road capability, and affordability. The Rexton's first generation (2001-2006) was based on the Mercedes-Benz M-Class platform, boasting a ladder frame chassis for enhanced strength and durability. This platform provided the Rexton with a solid foundation for its off-road prowess, complemented by a range of optional features like four-wheel drive, a low-range transfer case, and locking differentials.

The SsangYong Rexton's interior was spacious and comfortable, offering seating for up to seven passengers depending on the configuration. While some critics noted the interior's design lacked the sophistication of its competitors, the Rexton's practicality and generous cargo space were highly praised. Power came from a range of diesel and gasoline engines, with the 2.7-liter diesel being the most popular choice for its fuel efficiency and adequate performance. Available transmissions included a five-speed manual and a five-speed automatic, providing smooth gear changes for both urban driving and off-road adventures. The Rexton's reputation for reliability was mixed, with some owners experiencing issues with certain components, particularly the electrical system and suspension. However, its overall ruggedness and off-road capabilities made it a popular choice among those seeking a reliable and capable SUV at an attractive price point.
