The 1998 SsangYong Musso Korando was a rugged and capable SUV that sought to carve a niche for itself in the competitive off-road market. As a product of the South Korean automaker SsangYong, the Musso Korando aimed to blend sturdy construction with relatively affordable pricing. Powered by either a 2.3-liter gasoline or a 2.9-liter diesel engine, both generating modest power figures for the era, the Musso Korando boasted a ladder-frame chassis and a four-wheel-drive system, promising off-road prowess. Visually, the Musso Korando sported a boxy aesthetic that reflected its utilitarian nature, with a high roofline and upright stance. Its interior, while functional, offered basic amenities and a somewhat dated design, though it provided sufficient space for passengers and cargo. Despite its rugged nature and practical attributes, the 1998 Musso Korando never achieved widespread popularity outside of its home market, facing stiff competition from established players like Toyota, Nissan, and Mitsubishi.

The 1998 SsangYong Musso Korando's appeal lay in its blend of affordability and off-road capability, particularly for buyers in emerging markets. While the Musso Korando lacked the refinement and modern features of its Japanese rivals, it offered a rugged and dependable alternative for those seeking a workhorse SUV. However, its relatively low power output, dated design, and limited availability outside of Asia hampered its overall success. The "Korando" nameplate actually had its roots in the 1983 SsangYong Korando, a smaller and more compact SUV, and the Musso Korando was a larger and more powerful evolution of that model. Despite its eventual discontinuation, the Musso Korando holds a place in automotive history as a testament to SsangYong's ambition to establish itself as a global player in the off-road segment.
