Besides its primary rival Nissan Juke, the SsangYong X100 is also said to compete against the Peugeot 2008, the Renault Captur, the Ford EcoSport, the Chevrolet Trax, or the Opel Mokka.

The SsangYong X100 will come with some interesting body style cues, as the camouflage reveals, like some design lines taken from the unveiled XLV Concept, standing on a new platform as well.

Under the hood, the SsangYong X100 will be powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder gasoline unit, being also complemented by some diesel options.

All units will be hooked to a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic CVT. The model will become available in January, next year, with sales to begin soon after.
