SsangYong have set the foundations for a new generation Rexton with the LIV-2 Concept in Paris.
Evolving from the LIV-1 shown three years ago and changing not just its suffix, but much of its exterior and interior design, the study moves a step closer to production, with bits and pieces taken from other SUVs found in the brand’s portfolio, such as the Tivoli-inspired grille, which the company says, resembles the “spread wings of a bird”.
The cabin is said to have been designed to emulate an executive lounge and a luxury saloon, and as such, it comes with individual seats with massage functions and mood lighting, along with the usual smartphone connectivity gizmos, a large infotainment screen and Wi-Fi.
Some of these features will be carried onto the next generation Rexton, which is said to be introduced sometime next year, but what exactly will be left and what will be dropped from the concept, remains to be seen. Nevertheless, those individual seats, which seem to have been taken from the LIV-1, would make for an interesting addition, be standard or optional.
