FactSsangYong picked the Tivoli name as a hidden joke: spelled backwards, the Italian town's name reads "I lov[e] it."
The KGM Tivoli, previously the SsangYong Tivoli, is a subcompact SUV (B-segment) by KG Mobility (previously SsangYong Motor) and was SsangYong's first new model under Mahindra & Mahindra ownership, named after the Italian town of Tivoli, Lazio, and chosen because it can be read as "I lov[e] it" in reverse. It was in testing and development for three years before its announcement in November 2014, revealed as the concept X100, and launched in South Korea in January 2015, built at Pyeongtaek (also assembled at Saveh, Iran and, by Mahindra, at Chakan, India) and related to the Mahindra XUV300, XUV400 and XUV 3XO. It was offered with a choice of petrol or diesel 1.6-litre engines (e-XGi160 petrol; e-XDi160 I4-T diesel), two- or four-wheel drive, and a six-speed manual or an Aisin automatic gearbox which SsangYong claims is as quick and efficient as a dual-clutch setup; it was also sold as the Tivolan in China and as the LUVi in Denmark. Pre-facelift length 4,195 mm (165.2 in), width 1,795 mm (70.7 in), height 1,590 mm (62.6 in), wheelbase 2,600 mm (102.4 in). KNCAP gave it Grade 1 (5 stars; 91.9 points) on a 2015 registration and Euro NCAP rated the 2016 standard-equipment car 82% adult, 62% child, 65% pedestrian and 43% safety assist.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

The 2019 facelift added a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 9-inch CarPlay/Android Auto touchscreen — tech you don't expect in a budget SUV this size.
Stretching the Tivoli by less than 10 inches behind the rear wheels nearly doubled its cargo space — from 423 up to 720 liters.
