Inside, the Korando LE gets heated front seats, a leather steering wheel and gearlever, cruise control and parking sensors.

Power comes from the firm’s 2.0-litre diesel unit, which produces 173bhp and 266lb ft of torque. On the combined cycle, the Korando LE achieves 47.1mpg, while emitting 157g/km Co2. Power is transferred to the front wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox.

Availability of the Korando LE is limited to 150 units and prices start from £17,995 – a £1k premium over the S variant.
