    SsangYong is all set to reveal a Ford EcoSport-rivalling  compact SUV concept at the upcoming Geneva motor show.
     
    The concept will preview a production model that is reportedly to be launched in about a year and will showcase the carmaker’s ‘Nature born 3 motion’ design language. 
     
    The SsangYong XLV concept is 4430mm long, 1845mm wide and 1600mm tall, measuring slightly longer and narrower than the Ford EcoSport. It has seven seats in three rows and is powered by a combination of a 1.6-litre diesel engine and an electric motor.
