In the latter case, the total amount of luggage reaches 3240 litres. In addition, second-and third-row seats can be folded to get one small tables.



The novelty will be offered with two-liter diesel developing 149 horsepower and 360 n′ûtono-metres of torque (the same motor mounts on crossover Actyon), who will be paired with six-speed mechanical or pâtidiapazonnym machine supplied Mercedes-Benz. Also for the model will be available 3.2-litre six-cylinder petrol unit and a version with four-wheel drive.

South Korean manufacturer expects to sell 20 million of those minivans a year, 10 million in the local market and 10 thousand in other countries. In South Korea the novelty will cost at least 28.4 million won (about 23 million dollars).
