Will we be getting the all-new 2020 Tivoli?
As of the writing of this news article, there’s no word yet as to when the Philippines will be getting the new Tivoli. Note though that the previous version of the Ssangyong Tivoli is available here so a launch of the new model might just be on the horizon.
Don’t expect all the engine options launched in the U.K. to be available, though, but we’re counting on the diesel mill to replace the current diesel-powered Tivolis here.
It's got a decently sized boot too
