The UME receives 60 units of the SsangYong Musso to serve in the unit

The Spanish Army is receiving the units of the SsangYong Musso it has acquired for the various corps that make it up. A few months ago it received several units to serve in the security section of the Air and Space Army, while later other units were added for auxiliary tasks with the Eagle Patrol. Now it is the Military Emergency Unit (UME) that has received several units of this model.

In total, 60 units of the Musso Sport have joined the UME over the course of this month. It is a vehicle that has been adapted to serve in the unit and to improve the emergency vehicle fleet that forms part of it. It is a pick-up with fairly interesting proportions and that is capable of meeting any of the challenges faced by the Military Emergency Unit in its various missions.

One of its main strengths is the capacity of the load bed. It has a capacity of 1,250 litres, with a payload that can reach 1,085 kg without problems. This makes this pick-up one of the most capable in its category and a solid ally for the UME’s missions.

The interior is well equipped and offers not only great versatility, but also the comfort and convenience found in this model across its different variants. Good equipment that allows work to be carried out in suitable conditions in any mission.

As for the engine, this model is powered by a 2.2-litre four-cylinder in-line e-XDi 220 diesel unit. The power output is 202 CV, more than enough to fulfil its role, and it is paired with a six-speed gearbox. It can be either manual or automatic, to deliver maximum performance.

Its off-road capabilities allow it to move with ease over the most difficult terrain. It uses a transfer case with a reduction ratio of 2.48:1 and a rear limited-slip differential that enable these capabilities. With these new units, the UME’s fleet is reinforced, which will be ready to continue carrying out its missions at various points across the country and even abroad.
