# KGM Tivoli

The KGM Tivoli (Korean: KGM 티볼리), previously SsangYong Tivoli, is a subcompact crossover SUV made by the KG Mobility (previously SsangYong Motor). The Tivoli was SsangYong's first new model under Mahindra & Mahindra ownership. It is named after the Italian town of Tivoli, Lazio, and was chosen because it can be read as "I lov[e] it" in reverse.

## History

The Tivoli was in testing and development for the three years prior to its announcement in November 2014 and was revealed in concept with the project name X100. It was launched in South Korea in January 2015.
The Tivoli is offered with a choice of petrol or diesel 1.6-liter engines and is available in two or four-wheel drive. It is equipped with a six-speed manual or AISIN automatic gearbox, which SsangYong claims is as quick and efficient as a dual-clutch setup.

### Facelift

In May 2019, SsangYong revealed a teaser image and main specs of the first facelift of the Tivoli. The new version of the car was launched on June 4 in South Korea.
The facelifted Tivoli received a new exterior design, including new LED headlights, fog lights and new taillight graphics. The dashboard also reshaped, with a new centre stack, air vents, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 9.0-inch central infotainment system compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The updated Tivoli features a new 1.5-liter turbo petrol engine, which will replace the existing 1.6-liter petrol engine.

The rating for the SsangYong Tivoli was first published in 2016. At that time, autonomous emergency braking was sold as an option, as part of a safety pack, and Euro NCAP published two ratings: one with only standard equipment and another with the safety pack. Since February 2018, the content of the safety pack - AEB City, AEB Inter-urban and AEB Pedestrian - has been made standard equipment and the rating has been changed to reflect this change.
