双龙将在下月的日内瓦车展发布SIV-2概念车，该车量产后将成为比Tivoli更大车型。这款车是在去年三年前日内瓦车展亮相的SIV-1概念车基础上的演进版。而量产版的车身尺寸与日产逍客差不多，内部可搭乘五名乘客。量产版将采用概念车的“强劲、独特、高端”设计理念，将成为双龙家族中的核心车型。SIV-2搭载的是混动系统，包括一台1.5升涡轮增压汽油引擎，一台电机和锂电池组。车厂介绍说，该车搭载的48伏弱混动系统可以实现“安静和低油耗行驶，降低二氧化碳排放，在车辆怠速和低速行驶时非常安静。”该车采用轻量化结构和低重心设计，不过车厂并未透露该车太多细节。不过车厂表示，该车的底盘和悬挂可以适应包括混动和纯电动在内的各种类型动力系统。预计量产版将于2018年上市，其定位高于Tivoli。

 

2016 SsangYong SIV-2 concept previews bigger SUV

SsangYong is heading to next month’s Geneva Motor Show with the SIV-2 concept set to preview an upcoming production SUV larger than the Tivoli.

 

The concept is not entirely new since it’s essentially an evolution of the SIV-1 that debuted almost three years ago in Geneva. The production version is expected to be roughly the same size as the Nissan Qashqai and will be offered with a five-seat interior cabin. It will employ the concept’s “Robust, Speciality, Premium” design language and is set to become a key model in SsangYong’s range.

 

Being a concept, it shouldn’t come as a surprise the SIV-2 is alternatively-powered by using a turbocharged 1.5-liter gasoline engine teamed up with an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery pack. According to the automaker, the high-riding model’s 48V mild-hybrid arrangement grants “quiet and efficient driving, reduced CO2 emissions and silent running when idling and at slow speeds.”

 

It takes advantage of a lightweight construction and benefits from a low center of gravity, but SsangYong isn’t that generous with exact details about the concept. The company does say the SIV-2’s chassis and suspension can be adapted for various types of powertrains, including hybrids and pure electric vehicles.

 

We will know more at the beginning of March when the SIV-2 concept will be introduced in Geneva. The production SUV is expected to go on sale around 2018 and sit above the Tivoli.
