It is a great Ute, haven’t had any problems except with the alarm system. Will have to get some advice on it. But except for that not a bad Ute.
Purchased in for $35,000.
Purchased a MY21 XLV Ssangyong Musso Ultimate in October 202
Vehicle shuddered on take off and Extreme Cabin Shake making ride very uncomfortable. Ssangyong and dealer say normal operation
Not Happy with Musso
Purchased in for $50,000.

Extremely econimical getting down to 6.6 l/100 highway driving and 15/100 towing 23ft caravan.
Did have to change springs and shocks and added airbags for better towing and ground clearance, but thats it.
Done 80k on the clock and have not had any issues.

I've had nothing but issues with my 2021 Musso, engine blew up at 7000km and now ive loaded up the tray with 500kg and its on it bump stops. Bloody pathetic excuse for a Ute, i finally got a new ute and its useless for what i need and contacting someone at Ssangyong that will help is useless. I suppose all we can do is warn other people off buying one as much as we can.
Purchased in at SsangYong Dealers for $50,000.

I've had my Musso sports 2006 for a couple of years now and I have put it on the same bush tracks as I've driven in my old Navara,,, but I'm not having to rest every 2nd HR due to the ride (Model T suspension kit),, I've got a few modifications that improve the ute with a ARB steel bar (modified 2003RA Rodeo)and , custom bash plate, 2in heavy duty suspension kit (Ironman),, 32x11.5R15 mud tyres,,, maxxtrax install on the tailgate.
I'm getting a snorkel and diff lockers and diff breather kit and my plan is to get more power and a winch installed...
Purchased in for $5,500.

Beautifully kitted Ute, class leading value and refinement
After an enormous amount of research into utes and owner groups, including SsangYong owner groups, I concluded that SsangYong Musso owners are indeed very happy owners, with their purchase.
Some company owners use them as drive cars and reserve the Toyotas for the workers as they prefer the ride, ambience and quietness of the SY.
4WD Journalists testing a fleet of the latest and greatest 4WDs preferred to drive the Ironman suspension kitted Musso Ultimate over all the test fleet, on the road.
I personally purchased a 2021 SY ULTIMATE LUX LWB...
Purchased in at Westpoint Autos.

Perfect car for people who dont know cars or blinded by fan boy ignorance.
Heres my objective review. I dont own this car, my old man does. I just am unfortunate enough to have to drive it regularly for him or be a passenger.
Yeah there are a lot of boxes ticked in terms of options, but are you buying an iphone or a vehicle? People say hey why not both, yeah id like it too, but the fact is, whilst on the surface its got all the bells and whistles, it just misses the mark on so many other things. So its a trade off,
Personally I hate being on the other end of the mussos horrendous handsfree too.
-Power, look Il be ...
Read morebiased here because I hate diesel. Its for old tractors. But it just feels like its gutless. I dont care what the stats on paper say, when you jump into it and give it a boot full its kinda like ahh what do you want me to do her...oh go.... Yeah similar story for just about every ute in the diesel category in Australia sadly. Its expensive to maintain and has already had minor problems that my old man, just like any owner will try and hide or minimalise to try and protect their sense of pride and justify their decision in buying a musso. To each their own I suppose, But for me id rather just admit my vehicles faults openly and be happy with the purchase ive made. Maybe because I havent had any problems at all with my car. Not needed a single thing Other than consumables. Ive got three of the same vehicle and Hand on heart, not one of them has needed anything other than a service. The only thing i asked the dealer to do was stop the buzzers and chimes, they wouldnt so i cut the wire. Nothing happened and the cars havent missed a single beat. Toyotas. The story someone else on here mentioned about the bullbar etc was the exact same with the old mans, and personal experience speaking here but ironman is garbage. And the crap canopy they put on not ironman is horribly cheap and nasty, total excrement. But hey Hes happy with it. Cant say id be happy after broken promises etc.kRelated Articles
only small gripe is the indicator stalk is on different side of column to all other Australian vehicles. would also have preferred a cab protection bar fitted as standard, and a larger capacity fuel tank for Australia 100 litres.
Purchased in at phoenix motors perth .
This is my every day car. I bought it because it's the only dual cab ute that would fit in my garage.
Nearly a year old and I will be keeping it as it's a fantastic car.
Purchased for $52,000.

Hi guys, just a post regarding my experience with our new musso 15000kms..i use my vehicle on a daily basis work an pleasure. No mechanical issues.. just travelled to mandurah, busselton an esperance an returned to Perth WA , travelled towing my jayco caravan about 2.5 tonne estimated weight..travelled approximately 2500kms on some real crappy corrugated an rough roads, the musso handled the trip well, a little bumpy but overall manageable. No issues with towing sat on 100 kmph most of the trip..pretty impressed on fuel economy which I have to...
Read more calculate.. then gave it a workout on some of the soft sandy beaches, it handled itself well, although travelling through well used ruts did cause some problems, due to the clearance of the vehicle. I only have the factory standard tyres an no lift kit. Still impressed for value an performance..have no video footage of 4wd but I thought I would share some photos of the musso, me an the kangaroos fishing at lucky Bay esperance. Just checked the fuel economy mileage 714 km 98 litres of diesel. 7.28km per litre this is a rough estimate.Purchased in at Ssang rockingham for $33,000.

Owned a 2013 Ssangyong Actyon sports before did 280000ks without a problem.....couldn't wait to get my new Musso....proven diesel engine...so much kit for so few dollars...
If you take one for a test drive you will buy it!
Purchased in at Gatton auto.
Mine is ELX XLV, I just need a basic dual cab ute, and I am happy that I chose Ssangyong. I like the design, interior space, extra long tub. I don't use it off road, the clearance is good enough to get onto any verge.
I think the Japanese brands and Ford are overpriced.
A few things I noticed in the first month:
It becomes jittery on uneven surface, mine has rear leaf suspension;
Cruising at 100KM/H, the gear goes back to 5th by itself ofen.
Acceleration too much at low speed, will get the engine noise, when revving over 1800rpm.
The rest are all very good.
Purchased in for $43,500.

I have the Ultimate XLV which is the long wheel base version. MY20.5, made 2021. A combination of city/suburb and rural driving. I tow 2T over the hills once a week, no sweat at all. Only 11,000km to date. I drive around a paddock once a week but no real off road work thus far. It is hard to fault this machine so I'll have to be picky.
If you take this thing for a test drive you will end up buying it. You have been warned. Get the Ultimate - it's worth it. After you buy it, you will keep finding features you did not even know it had.
The bad:...
Read more 1. Mine had a shudder between 65 - 95km/hr. I took it back. The dealer gave me a loan car for the day. Meanwhile the dealer and Ssangyong Australia got a demo ute and swapped the tail shaft out of that into mine. So I didn't have to wait for anything and was right back on the road. Shame I had an issue but the dealer and Ssangyong really came through in customer service. Which counts. Had no issues since. 2. Now we get really picky. (a) There is an issue with Android Auto where after call the volume control does not go back to the head unit. Not a problem with Apple. (b) There is an auto lock when you walk away from the ute. It switches 1 second too early so you can't get to the other side door before it locks. 3. The RHD conversion/design puts the indicator stick on the 'wrong' side. The left. Like European cars.Purchased in .
