As far as engines are concerned, it is expected that the SsangYong Tivoli will either carry 1.6-litre petrol or 1.6-litre diesel engine. While the car will be offered with a choice of two wheel or four-wheel drive, the six-speed manual or automatic gearbox will also be provided to the customers. Power outputs are yet to be confirmed, but the two-wheel drive diesel concept will emit around 120g/km of CO2. If launched in diesel, the car will be powered by Korando’s 2-liter diesel engine.
