KG Mobility is launching the ‘All-New Tivoli (including the Air variant).’
Released in 2015, the Tivoli has expanded the domestic SUV market and contributed to the growth of the compact SUV segment, establishing itself as an iconic brand. It has become the first SUV for many in the 2030s and even among the MZ generation. Now, the Tivoli is reborn as the ‘All-New Tivoli.’
The design of the all-new Tivoli has been crafted to highlight its strength amidst simplicity. The modern and voluminous bumper design, along with a sporty intake grille, expresses a robust image. The asymmetrical snorkel (intake hole) offers distinctive functionality, providing both practicality and unique charm.
Furthermore, the interior design features a floating AVN unit and touch control panel, offering a more modern feel while maintaining a simple, intuitive design for user convenience.
The natural leather seat interior comes in three options: a newly introduced orange interior package, gray two-tone, and black, allowing for personalization based on individual tastes.
Customers can choose from new 18-inch diamond-cut wheels and 18-inch black diamond-cut wheels as options, while 16-inch alloy wheels and 17-inch diamond-cut wheels are standard depending on the trim. The Iron Metal color, popular in the Torres model, adds to an exciting palette of 10 body colors, including five single-tone and five two-tone options.
The refreshed all-new Tivoli has expanded its powertrain lineup to match customer needs. For those prioritizing a powerful driving experience, the 1.5 gasoline turbo model is available, while the 1.6 gasoline model offers excellent cost-performance in the 18 million won range.
Moreover, the all-new Tivoli Air boasts spaciousness akin to a compact SUV. With 1,440 liters of luggage space when the second row is folded and extending up to 1,879mm in length, it caters perfectly to users who value outdoor activities such as camping and car camping.
The All-New Tivoli’s 1.5 gasoline turbo engine delivers impressive performance with a maximum output of 163 hp at 5,000~5,500 rpm and maximum torque of 26.5 kg·m at 1,500~4,000 rpm. The 1.6 gasoline engine offers a maximum output of 126 hp at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 15.8 kg·m at 4,600 rpm, with combined fuel efficiency of 12.0 km/l and 11.6 km/l, respectively. Both engines are paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission from Aisin.
The Infocon connected car service, which is among the best in the industry, provides a heightened level of satisfaction, with a free usage period for the all-in-one service extended from 2 years to 5 years.
Additionally, to enhance the convenience of app usage, Infocon has revamped the app’s UI, supporting services including remote control, safety and security, vehicle management, information, and entertainment, along with a newly launched ‘My Car Alarm’ service.
The All-New Tivoli (including the Air variant) is equipped with Active Safety technology called Deep Control, assisting safe driving. This includes a total of 14 advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), starting with Emergency Braking Assistance (AEB), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Driver Attention Warning (DAW), Safety Distance Warning (SDW), Front Vehicle Start Warning (FVSW), and Central Lane Keeping Assist (CLKA).
Focusing on ‘Safety,’ the vehicle features the most airbags available in its class at 7, including a driver’s knee airbag, and utilizes high-strength steel for 79% of its body. This not only ensures safety but also equips the vehicle with a 4WD system that delivers top-notch driving performance on any road condition.
A KG Mobility representative stated, “Since its launch in 2015, the Tivoli has recorded nearly 290,000 units sold as of May 2023, definitively establishing itself in the compact SUV market. The newly introduced All-New Tivoli is expected to invigorate the compact SUV market, which has entered a stagnation phase, by offering customer needs and excellent cost-performance.”
