2001 May: Prices, 5-speed manual from $36,990, and automatic from $39,990 ($au 5/2001).

Daewoo has tried hard to keep prices down on the Musso, re-released in 1998 after the take-over of Ssangyong, in the fiercely competitive family 4WD wagon market. A limited slip diff' is standard but the option of ABS brakes is deleted. The petrol model has a full-time 4WD system, but the diesel makes do with part-time 4WD.
