The Tivoli EVR concept, first shown at the Geneva Motor Show last month, is the greener version of the compact SUV with CO2 emissions of only 40 g/km. Courtesy of this ultra low emission is a 127 bhp electric motor. Unlike a pure electric vehicle though, engineers have fitted a single-cylinder petrol engine which acts as a range extender.

The pure electric range of the Tivoli EVR stands at 128 km, which can be increased to 496 km with the range extender. The top-speed of the compact SUV stands at 148.8 km/h.

Inside, the Tivoli EVR concept is dressed in beige with a large central touchscreen display, much like the Tesla Model S.

Ssangyong maintains that the Tivoli EVR is still a concept, but producing it on a limited scale is not ruled out completely in the long run. For 2015 though, Ssangyong remains committed on introducing a diesel engine and a Tivoli 7-seat version.
