Title: Just when you thought it couldn't get any better...
Post by: Otto Puzzell on July 30, 2007, 04:36:53 AM: Ssangyong introduces revised Rodius :faint:

Holy cow - is this thing a looker, or what?!

Ssangyong Motor introduced some styling changes and a new turbodiesel engine for its Rodius minivan.

In addition to cosmetic changes, which include a new front bumper, grille, new taillights and a roof spoiler, there's the addition of the XDi 270 variant. It comes equipped with a EUR4-compatible turbodiesel engine.

That is (still) one ugly sucker. Not even ugly in a good way like Ami6 or something.

Sadly, the car you describe sounds infinitely more palatable than the road toad pictured above. If I had to choose between that and a Aztec, I'd take up jogging.
