ActYon, a homophonic translation of its Korean name, is officially named SsangYong ActYon and belongs to the South Korean automaker SsangYong Motors. Here are the key specifications of the SsangYong ActYon: 1. Dimensions: This SUV measures 4,465mm in length, 1,740mm in width, and 2,740mm in height, with a wheelbase of 1,570mm. 2. Powertrain: It is equipped with a third-generation high-pressure common rail direct injection turbocharged "Xdi200" diesel engine, featuring a 2.0L displacement that delivers 141 horsepower and 310 N·m of torque. 3. Suspension: The front adopts a double-wishbone suspension system, while the rear uses a 5-link suspension system, effectively dispersing road vibrations with each link bearing corresponding loads.
The other day, the taxi driver was chatting with me about this car. Actually, the name 'Aiteng' is a mix of two cars' nicknames among folks. Nowadays, when people mention 'Aiteng,' they mostly refer to those green-plate taxis on the road, officially named the Roewe Ei5, a pure electric station wagon produced by SAIC, known for its spacious trunk that can hold a lot of luggage. Meanwhile, the 'Aiteng' old car enthusiasts talk about is the SsangYong Actyon, a Korean-made body-on-frame off-roader. It was quite expensive when imported back in the day but had high fuel consumption, and now it's rarely seen. It's easy to mix them up, just like calling a Passat a Santana—it all depends on which year's car you're talking about.
