KG Mobility, formerly known as SsangYong Motor, is a South Korean automotive manufacturer specializing in SUVs, crossovers, pickup trucks and off-road vehicles. After its rebranding from SsangYong to KGM, the brand returned to the Russian market in 2025. The Russian website kgm.ru presents itself as the official website of KGM’s exclusive distributor in Russia and lists the brand’s model range, specifications, prices and purchase options. Russian automotive market sources reported that KGM’s exclusive distributor in Russia is JSC “REX Motors”, with sales planned from Q1 2025, vehicle certification, dealer network development and after-sales service. Russian dealer materials state that since March 2025 KGM has been officially represented in Russia, with sales of Tivoli, Korando, Torres and Rexton through JSC “REX Motors” and service available through official dealers across the country. Media reports also noted that the KGM trademark was registered in Russia in 2024 on behalf of KG Mobility, indicating a direct brand-level connection to the Russian market.
