SsangYong Musso I (FJ) gallery (1993–2005)
The brand's first mid-size frame SUV created in cooperation with Daimler-Benz Corporation.
The first-generation SsangYong Musso debuted in 1993 and became a milestone vehicle for the South Korean brand. Its streamlined body design was penned by Briton Ken Greenley, while its engineering relied heavily on reliable Mercedes-Benz engines and components, including inline-four and inline-six gasoline engines, as well as naturally aspirated and turbocharged OM601 and OM602 diesel engines. The SUV featured a rigid ladder-frame chassis, Part-Time four-wheel-drive transmission, and a low-range transfer case. In 2007, wait, in 1998 the model underwent a scheduled facelift featuring a revised grille and expanded equipment list. A pickup variant named Musso Sports was also derived from it. The vehicle was manufactured in South Korea and assembled under license globally, including Russia where it later became known as the TagAZ Road Partner.
