1 Answers
The Chairman is a sedan under South Korea's SsangYong Motor, translated as "Chairman". It is a mid-to-large size car series manufactured by the SsangYong Motor Group. Apart from the Chairman series, SsangYong Motor Group also has models such as Actyon, Rexton, Korando, Rodius, Kyron, Tivoli, Rexton W, and Tivoli. The 2012 Chairman 3.6 CW700L extended version has body dimensions of 5435*1895*1505mm, classifying it as a full-size car. It is equipped with a 3.6-liter six-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 250 hp, maximum power of 184 kW, and maximum torque of 343 N·m. The Chairman primarily competes with models like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8, and BMW 7 Series. However, due to its brand recognition, many people in the market are unaware of it. The Chairman is SsangYong's flagship model developed in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz. Many components of the Chairman, including the engine and transmission, are produced and assembled by SsangYong under license from Mercedes-Benz. After the discontinuation of the older Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W140), Mercedes-Benz transferred the complete technology of the vehicle to SsangYong. The Chairman's engine, transmission, front and rear axles, and electronic systems are derived from Mercedes-Benz's W140 S-Class and W124 E-Class.
