Used SsangYong Tivoli for sale

What types of used SsangYong Tivoli cars are there?

A used SsangYong Tivoli is a comfortable and well-equipped compact family SUV that benefits from the South Korean car brand’s excellent reliability and strong build quality. It’s been on sale for a number of years, and even lived on into the KGM era – the new name for SsangYong.

Popular SsangYong Tivoli trims

Pick from a handful of used SsangYong Tivoli trim levels, but we’d always recommend a top-spec car given that it’s so affordable.

> SsangYong Tivoli Ultimate Nav – top-spec car with nine-inch touchscreen and built-in TomTom sat-nav

SsangYong Tivoli history

Years ago, SsangYong wasn’t known for its design, but the Tivoli changed that with a striking new crossover design when it launched in 2015.

> First-generation SsangYong Tivoli (2015) – the South Korean manufacturer’s first new car under Indian Mahindra & Mahindra ownership

> Facelifted SsangYong Tivoli (2019) – minor design changes and new trim levels with stacks of equipment

> Facelifted KGM Tivoli (2023) – this car has a new front end to keep up with the rebrand

What features does the SsangYong Tivoli have?

A used SsangYong Tivoli for sale is guaranteed to put a smile on your face – it might not be the most exciting to drive, but it’s extremely good value for money.

All facelifted models sold after 2019 come with comforts like keyless entry, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel. All but the entry-level Ventura have front and rear parking sensors, but that one still has rear sensors.

The standard-fit eight-inch touchscreen works with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and is also the home for the reversing camera, but if you go for top-spec Ultimate Nav you’ll get a bigger 10.25-inch screen with a TomTom sat-nav.

Is the SsangYong Tivoli reliable?

Yes, you’ll know that you’re in good hands behind the wheel of a used SsangYong Tivoli. SsangYong, and KGM, sold the Tivoli with a five-year warranty, which is slightly above average, and is a testament of its confidence.

How much does the SsangYong Tivoli cost to run?

Yes, there are some older diesels to buy if you’re bothered about maximising your fuel economy, but most models (including all facelifted KGM Tivoli cars for sale) use a petrol engine.

The 163hp 1.5-litre engine is good for around 40mpg in manual form, or 37mpg with the automatic gearbox.

Fuel consumption for the KGM version, which was subjected to the much more realistic WLTP testing procedures, stands at around 36mpg. The reality is that you could expect 30-40mpg depending on your driving habits.

Who is the SsangYong Tivoli suitable for?

A used SsangYong Tivoli for sale is a great pick for savvy drivers – it’s packed with big-car kit, is reliable and doesn’t cost the earth.

Other affordable crossovers include the MG ZS, Dacia Duster and Nissan Juke.
