The SsangYong Kyron is a mid-size SUV built by the SsangYong Motor Company. It had a Mercedes-Benz diesel engine and was designed by Ken Greenley. It received a facelift in 2007.[3] The name of the car is an inaccurate portmanteau made combining the pronounced sound of the mathematical symbol chi (/ˈk/) and the word run, which is intended to mean "infinite run."[4]
