Both versions of the Torres are equipped with a comprehensive suite of safety kit as standard, including lane-keeping assistance, automatic emergency braking, front and rear parking sensors and a reversing camera.
KGM also claims it has the highest level of structural safety in the class, as the chassis is comprised of 81% high-tensile steel.
KGM has introduced a revised trim-level structure across its car line-up, opening with K30 and running through K40 to K50. More affordable K20 models may be added in the future.
The KGM Musso pick-up truck doesn’t adopt this structure, however, retaining its EX, Rebel, Saracen and Saracen+ trims.
UK prices for the Torres have yet to be announced, but it’s expected to slot between the Korando (£25,540) and Rexton (£40,500) in ICE form, at around £33,000.
The Torres EVX – the only electric car in KGM’s UK line-up – may edge nearer the £40,000 mark, given that the smaller Korando E-Motion started at £32,695.
