Which SUV should you buy for towing?
4 Months Ago
The KGM Rexton is a large, seven-seat SUV with proper towing and touring intent, formerly sold in Australia under the SsangYong brand. It uses a diesel engine and ladder-frame-style toughness to appeal to families who need more than a soft-road SUV, especially for long-distance travel, caravans or regional roads. The Rexton is not as widely recognised as the big-name rivals, but that is part of its value equation: strong equipment levels, a long warranty and a practical cabin for the money. It suits buyers wanting a capable, spacious SUV without paying the premium attached to more established large 4WD names.
