Ssangyong Musso vs Mercedes-AMG GLC43

What's the difference?

The SsangYong Musso XLV Ultimate is one of, if not the, most affordable part-time 4x4 ute on the market at the moment a recent facelift sees some improvements to its design, features and ride comfort.

I'm in the top-grade model with my family of three to see how those tweaks translate to real-world family life and how it competes against rivals like the GWM Ute Cannon and the LDV T60.

If you’re looking for a performance SUV, I want to introduce you to the recently launched Mercedes-AMG GLC43. The GLC43 has a new engine, new outputs and sees some major changes to its underpinnings and tech.

It competes against the BMW X3 M40i, Audi SQ5 and Porsche Macan S; all exceptional sports performance SUVs with cult followings.

Fans will be enthralled by the GLC43's new engine but I'm testing this new variant to see if it has what it takes to woo families, as well.
