Well-known for its generous equipment levels and high towing capacity, it’s a strong contender among pickups available in the UK today. The SsangYong Musso is purpose-built for drivers who need a dependable, hard-working pickup without compromising on comfort or value. Launched in its current form in 2018, the latest Musso shares technology with SsangYong’s Rexton SUV and offers more kit for your cash with a refreshed look released in 2021. Since 2023, it's been marketed under the KGM brand. Compared to rivals such as the Ford Ranger and Isuzu D-Max, the Musso stands out with a high level of standard equipment, a roomy cabin, a 5yr/100,000-mile warranty, 3.5-tonne towing capacity, five seats, strong diesel engines, and plenty of tech. It is a practical solution for both work and family duties as a used buy.
Most Musso models include up to six airbags, hill descent assistance and trailer sway control. An innovative steering wheel column system is designed to minimise injuries in the event of a collision. The Saracen edition adds blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert and a rear-view camera, though as a whole, the Musso is lacking in advanced safety tech.
Since 2018, the Musso has used a 2.2-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel engine, uprated to 202hp from 2022 onwards. You’ll find 6-speed manual and automatic gearboxes. There's an absence of hybrid options, as this vehicle is built solely for strength and towing power, so it needs bags of grunt under the bonnet.
Entry-level EX trim brings DAB radio, Bluetooth and air conditioning. Middle trims (Rebel) introduce an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus heated seats and a reversing camera. Top-spec Saracen and Saracen+ models upgrade to a 9.2-inch screen with built-in navigation, parking sensors and napa leather seats.
Official figures put the Musso’s fuel economy at up to 33.8mpg for the manual, 31.5mpg for the automatic, and around 30.8mpg for long-bed models. Real-world consumption can dip lower, especially when towing or carrying heavy loads. This can be a thirsty vehicle – something to keep in mind as far as running costs go.
Look for a full service record, pay attention to suspension, steering and brakes, and check for wear if it’s been used for heavy towing. Make sure electronic systems, infotainment and climate controls are working. For extra peace of mind, consider The AA Vehicle Inspection service.
The Musso benefits from SsangYong’s robust engineering and a generous warranty, which could still apply to many used examples. Owners report good reliability, particularly for the engine and gearbox, though regular commercial use can put strain on the suspension and interior. Later models fare well for everyday durability thanks to improved build quality.
