KGM Motors UK New and Used KGM Motors Models, Prices & Reviews

KGM isn’t actually a new brand — it’s what used to be called Ssangyong, the Korean-based maker of chunky SUVs. It changed its name because Ssangyong got bought out by another big company called KG Industries. Some of the older Ssangyong models are still on sale — the likes of the Musso, Korando, and Tivoli — but KGM is now modernising with new cars, and new electric versions, coming.

About KGM Motors

KGM’s history, as Ssangyong, goes right back to the 1950s. In fact, the company is this year celebrating 70 years of making cars, so although British buyers only found out about Ssangyong from the early 1990s onwards, it actually has quite the history. 

KGM is entirely a maker of SUVs (or at least it is since the old Rodius MPV went out of production). It makes compact models such as the Tivoli and Korando, the big seven-seat Rexton, and the Musso pickup, which is actually the brand’s biggest UK seller right now. 

It’s also starting to modernise the brand, with newer, sleeker-looking models such as the Actyon and the Torres, and you can have the Torres as an all-electric model if you like. 

KGM is also planning to expand, with more sharply-styled cars, and more electric models, due in the next few years.

KGMs (and its legacy Ssangyong models) aren’t usually the most sophisticated cars around, but they do tend to be solid, useful, and hard-working, and they often represent good value for money. 

What our car expert says

“The KGM Torres promises to be big and practical, but it’s tough to ignore the fact that there are excellent alternatives at this price.”

KGM Motors FAQs

KGM Motors is a South Korean car manufacturer, which was called SsangYong until December 2023. Its parent company is KG Mobility Corporation. It will continue to use the dragon wings logo used under the SsangYong branding.

Ssangyong changed its name to KGM — KG Mobility — because it was bought out by the vast KG Industries conglomerate.

KGM's headquarters is in the Gangnam district of Seoul, the capital of South Korea. Its vehicles are built in Pyungtaek, about 40 miles south of Seoul.

There are currently seven KGM Motors models on sale in the UK. The Tivoli, Korando, Rexton, Musso and Korando have all been carried over from when the brand was called SsangYong. However, the Torres is a new model. The Musso is a pickup truck, but the rest are SUVs of varying sizes. The Torres and Korando are available with electric versions.

With the new Torres and Actyon models it remains to be seen, but in the past Ssangyong’s cars have been fairly solid and reliable.
