  • 00:49

    Hello, and welcome to Bourg St Maurice in the snowy French Alps. Finally, here is my

  • 00:56

    review of the SsangYong Rexton Ultimate as a towing car. So if you've got a

  • 01:03

    caravan or a horse box or a boat trailer, this is for you! We are just approaching

  • 01:09

    the end now of a six-week trip all around southern Europe. We left the UK

  • 01:15

    and have been down through France, Portugal, right down to the southern tip

  • 01:20

    of Spain, back up here to the French Alps, and then we're heading back to the UK

  • 01:24

    tomorrow. So all in all so far we've done over 3,000 miles with the SsangYong

  • 01:31

    Rexton towing this beautiful Airstream Missouri. Now, there are three models in

  • 01:38

    the Rexton lineup and this is the Ultimate, this is the top of the range.

  • 01:42

    It only comes with an automatic gearbox, and with the metallic paint it goes through

  • 01:47

    the tills at approximately £39,000. Compare that to the next level down, the

  • 01:54

    ELX automatic that goes through the tills at about 5 grand less about £34,000

  • 02:00

    and then theEX model which is the base range, which still has quite an

  • 02:05

    impressive spec; with a manual box that goes through the tills at just over

  • 02:10

    £28,000. So no matter which one you choose, it does represent terrific value

  • 02:16

    for money, and what's great now is that with the new Rexton the warranty has

  • 02:21

    been increased and is now an incredible seven years! That's right,

  • 02:26

    seven year warranty, that's brilliant. So the way that this review is going to go...

  • 02:32

    as a tow car... as I say, we're going to start off with how it is for loading - how

  • 02:37

    much equipment you can get into the back - then we're going to talk about driving

  • 02:41

    and the towing... how it performs as a tow car, and we're also going to talk about

  • 02:46

    the technology and comfort in the cab. It's got an amazing amount of Technology

  • 02:50

    and Driver comfort. So to kick off let's go back a couple of weeks to sunny Spain

  • 02:56

    where I talk about the loading of the SsangYong Rexton Ultimate.

  • 03:02

    The Ultimate comes as a five-seater; the other ranges offer seven seats as an option. With the

  • 03:09

    rear seats in place you have 820 litres of load space and a cover, but as there

  • 03:15

    is only me and the dog I could fold these right away and avail myself of all

  • 03:19

    the load space... and there's almost 2,000 litres of it! And I had plenty of kit to

  • 03:26

    put in it. As well as my kite surfing gear and snowboarding gear, there were

  • 03:30

    photographic props for some of the images and videos I've been producing,

  • 03:34

    caravan accessories, snow chains and a good supply of British baked beans on

  • 03:40

    the way down, and jars of Spanish chickpeas on the journey home.

  • 03:44

    But it is the simplest of touches that impress me the most, and I love this

  • 03:50

    false floor rated up to 60 kilos, as I can have essential bits and pieces

  • 03:56

    directly to hand such as the nose weight gauge, torque wrench, and levelling blocks

  • 04:02

    for the caravan. Hitching up is a doddle thanks to a clear reversing camera; it's

  • 04:09

    a one-person job. The tow bar is manufactured by Witter. I've had to clip

  • 04:14

    a carabiner to the hole for the breakaway cable; that's simply because

  • 04:18

    the breakaway cable clip on my Airstream's BPW chassis did not fit the

  • 04:24

    coupling hook, so I could loop it through the carabiner instead. It's a simple and

  • 04:29

    effective workaround. But it's in this area I discovered the Rexton's

  • 04:34

    only fault.

  • 04:38

    Reversing with the caravan plugged in did not kill the reversing sensors.

  • 04:44

    This will require attention from SsangYong,

  • 04:47

    but I guess that's what seven year warranties are for. The selectable 4x4

  • 04:52

    came in very handy when I was towing off of muddy pitch; I could put it in to low

  • 04:57

    ratio, and towing off a snowy pitch. Towing on snowy roads leaving it in 4x4

  • 05:04

    high ratio proved to be invaluable; it was extremely stable and held the

  • 05:09

    road very well. So now we're hitched up, what is it like as a tow car?

  • 05:18

    So what is the Rexton like to drive? Well I think to sum it up in one word... comfortable.

  • 05:27

    If you want a car that you can throw around the corners, and it's going to handle as if

  • 05:33

    it's on rails - don't buy a Rexton. If you want a car that

  • 05:40

    is going to tow your Caravan or your horse box or your boat, and the TRAILER

  • 05:47

    is going to stick to the road as if it's on rails...buy a Rexton! The thing that has

  • 05:55

    impressed me the most about this car, as well as the comfort aspect and of course

  • 06:01

    the value for money and the warranty, is how stable the caravan has been -

  • 06:08

    obviously attributable to the the ladder chassis that the SsangYong is built on.

  • 06:13

    But really the caravan... we've done so far... hmm let's have a look...

  • 06:19

    we've done approaching 3,000 miles now and in all that time the caravan has

  • 06:27

    followed the car as if it is on rails. There's been no problems at all with any

  • 06:33

    stability issues, and where we point the car,

  • 06:36

    the caravan goes. So I am so impressed with the towing stability of this car.

  • 06:43

    Now, full disclosure here: normally I prefer manual gearboxes, and also I also

  • 06:51

    admit to driving with a very light right foot, I am NOT a speed freak, at least not

  • 06:58

    when I'm driving a car - that's why I've got a motorbike - for someone like me this

  • 07:06

    is absolutely ideal because of the weight of the car it is 2.2 tonnes and

  • 07:13

    you have a 2.2 engine. That combination isn't gonna set your pants on fire when

  • 07:21

    you're towing a caravan. So it's not exactly underpowered, it's more than

  • 07:26

    adequate for the job, it just it doesn't have that oomph that for example a 2.5

  • 07:34

    or a 3 litre would have. It really does work hard and that brings me to the one

  • 07:39

    huge downside of this car, that's really the only downside I can think of, which

  • 07:46

    is the fuel costs and the consumption. Towing the caravan the car has returned

  • 07:54

    approximately 22 miles per gallon solo. We've reached the very best the low

  • 08:02

    thirties miles per gallon, so that's not a great result for a modern car. However

  • 08:11

    you do have to offset that with fantastic purchase price, but it's just

  • 08:16

    something to be aware of. Obviously when you don't have a caravan or a horse box

  • 08:20

    attached, the car is absolutely fine and the other thing I've noticed is when

  • 08:25

    I've been solo, normally it's to trip down to the shops or go somewhere and I

  • 08:30

    need to park, it's really easy to park - especially the Ultimate with all

  • 08:35

    the cameras all the way round, I don't find it too big. I am quite used to large

  • 08:41

    cars but I don't find it frighteningly large - it's fairly easy to manoeuvre

  • 08:49

    around town, to park, so don't be put off by the size of it. It really is quite

  • 08:55

    easy to drive solo. But crucially going back to that original point about

  • 09:00

    driving this car, that number one quality as far as I'm concerned is comfort.

  • 09:08

    It's quiet, it's smooth, it smooths out the bumps but not so much that you can't feel

  • 09:14

    where you're driving, and as you can hear... it's just a nice quiet cabin The seats

  • 09:23

    are really comfortable, I really do like the seats, and trust me I do speak up if

  • 09:30

    I don't find the seats comfortable. Obviously they're fully adjustable,

  • 09:34

    heated, cooled... I don't use any of that, but I do find that it's just a really

  • 09:40

    comfortable driving position. And you've got all your climate control, all the

  • 09:46

    little toys, gadgets, and everything that you would expect to make the driving

  • 09:50

    experience a pleasurable one. I find the technology very good - we'll go into that

  • 09:55

    in a moment, Apple Car Play so I could play my podcasts and wile away the

  • 10:02

    long journeys... and I just find that when I get to my destination even towing the

  • 10:08

    caravan, because it's so stable, so comfortable, so smooth, that I'm not as

  • 10:14

    tired as I would expect to be after a long journey. The automatic gearbox that

  • 10:21

    comes with the Ultimate as standard and is a cost option on the other ranges,

  • 10:26

    I found that to be absolutely fine although I prefer manual boxes. It's been

  • 10:30

    really good for these long journeys where you can just put the cruise

  • 10:33

    control on, stick it in Drive, and off you go. It's also been obviously really

  • 10:38

    useful when we've been stuck in traffic so I'm not always using my clutch.

  • 10:44

    The one thing I would say about it is that while it's absolutely fine, when

  • 10:50

    we've been wanting to make a quick getaway from a roundabout or a junction,

  • 10:55

    sometimes it's just a little bit hesitant with the caravan on the back.

  • 10:59

    You put your foot down and it goes 'Oh, what, you want me to go? Oh, okay!' and it's

  • 11:05

    just that little gap that you don't get with a manual. I think that's more to do

  • 11:10

    with getting used to an automatic box than any fault with the car, but it's

  • 11:15

    just something that I noticed being someone who prefers manual gearboxes.

  • 11:22

    All in all, the driving experience is great. I enjoy it, I love it, I think this is the

  • 11:28

    perfect car that we could have ever asked for

  • 11:32

    to do a long trip like this - 4,000 miles towing a Caravan. It's performed well,

  • 11:39

    I really do like it. So that is the driving experience, now when we get to the site I

  • 11:47

    shall talk about the in-car technology.

  • 11:52

    We've covered the fantastic reversing camera which is great to assist in

  • 11:57

    hitching up, but it also helps when you're parking the car. All around

  • 12:02

    cameras and sensors make parking an absolute doddle. There are loads of

  • 12:07

    driving safety features on the Ultimate including lane departure warning and

  • 12:12

    blind spot detection; this was really useful on long tedious drives.

  • 12:20

    Locking the car as expected is by a smart key system that also closes the

  • 12:25

    windows. One great touch with the Ultimate is the smart tailgate switch.

  • 12:30

    If you stand next to it with the key in your pocket, it will open automatically.

  • 12:34

    You can isolate this function if you don't want it. Sat-nav is by TomTom, and I found

  • 12:41

    it to be very reliable. Apple Car Play and Google Android Auto is also built-in.

  • 12:48

    I didn't realise how useful this would be until I discovered that it could both

  • 12:53

    read and transmit dictated text messages, and allow easy access to my podcasts.

  • 13:01

    Do be aware that when using the phone it will kill the sat-nav display. You can of

  • 13:07

    course replicate the sat-nav directions in the dashboard display while you're on

  • 13:11

    a call, or as a workaround you can use Google Maps which still works even when

  • 13:17

    you're on the phone. For this little workaround I'd like to say a huge thank

  • 13:22

    you to Karina and Jules from the channel Here We Tow. They have owned a Rexton ELX

  • 13:29

    for the past 12 months, so do check out their channel for their review of the

  • 13:35

    SsangYong Rexton ELX. Now that I've had Apple Car Play,

  • 13:40

    I don't want to be without it. But there is one feature in this car that when we

  • 13:47

    hit the chilly weather in the French Alps, it became a game changer - that is

  • 13:51

    the heated steering wheel. Yes, the car has heated seats which are also very

  • 13:57

    comfortable, but the heated steering wheel is amazing in the mornings when

  • 14:03

    you've got chilly fingers. It also has a fast defrosting windscreen which was

  • 14:07

    brilliant in the icy weather.

  • 14:11

    So there you have it, there's my little review of the SsangYong Rexton Ultimate.

  • 14:17

    As you can probably tell, I rather like this car. Just one or two very minor reservations like the fuel

  • 14:24

    consumption but other than that it really is a terrific car. If any of my

  • 14:33

    friends said they were going to be buying one, I would be absolutely

  • 14:36

    delighted for them. Some people have raised a question mark

  • 14:40

    over the residual values of these cars; however you need to offset that with the

  • 14:47

    seven-year warranty. Personally I think if you're buying a new car it's always

  • 14:53

    with a view to keeping it for five years anyway, and if you can keep it seven

  • 14:56

    years I think residuals become far less of an issue than if you replace your car

  • 15:02

    every year or two. Anyway, if you do have any further questions about the

  • 15:09

    technical specs or anything like that with the car, please do check out the

  • 15:14

    SsangYong website I'll put a link in the description below, and in the meantime it

  • 15:20

    just leaves me to say from Dougal who's in his little travel box back there, and from me...

  • 15:27

    Thanks for tuning in!

  • 15:32

    [comic music]

  • 15:42

    Taking it easy under there, Dougal? Yeah, I'm busy working, and you're taking it easy.
