List of two-seater SUVs you CAN buy

The Land of the Oppas is one of the few places in the world where you’ll see two-seater SUVs. Most people think they’re just a myth, but they’re real! 

Two-seat sport utility vehicles are designed to be used both for business and outdoor purposes. In contrast to other sport utility vehicles, these vehicles consist of just two seats and an empty trunk. It could be said that the wall in the back is their third wheel. Despite their lack of creature comforts, they are surprisingly enjoyable to drive.

Here is the list of two-seater SUVs you CAN buy.

Hyundai Casper Van - The Hyundai Casper Van is the smallest and cheapest two-seater SUV you can buy. It starts at 13,750,000 Korean won, plus additional costs. It has a 1.0L Smartstream engine, a 4-speed automatic transmission, 14.3 km/L of fuel economy, and 940 liters of boot space. It has a 300-kilogram capacity, so it's a great option for both business and outdoor use.

KGM Torres Van - The two-seater KGM Torres Van, priced at 26,660,000 Korean Won plus additional costs, strips away the second-row seating and replaces it with a wall behind the front seats and railings on the rear passenger doors, giving it 1,462 liters of boot space and 300kg capacity. It still comes with the 1.5L T-GDi engine producing 170PS of power while mated to an AISIN 6-speed AT.

KGM Torres EVX Van - You've seen the petrol variant. Now here comes its EV equivalent, now in a two-seater variant. Just like its petrol-powered equivalent, the all-electric EVX Van, priced at 44,380,000 Won plus additional costs, strips away the second-row seating and replaces it with a wall behind the front seats and railings on the rear passenger doors, giving it 1,462 liters of boot space and 300kg capacity. Like the normal EVX, it comes with a 152kW electric motor with a 73.4kWh battery. The driving range is an average of 411km in one full charge.

Renault QM6 Quest - The Renault QM6, formerly sold Euro-wide as the Koleos before it was replaced by the sixth-generation Espace, still exists in South Korea and it's been facelifted for the third time. The recent minor change welcomes the two-seater Quest variant powered only by a 2.0L LPe engine that produces 140PS of power and has a fuel economy of 8.7km/L. Prices start at 30,700,000 Korean Won plus additional costs. The two-seater QM6 Quest strips away the rear seats for a wall and railings. As a result, it has 1,413 liters of boot space, less than the KGM Torres Van, and like most two-seater SUVs, it has a 300kg capacity.

...and these are the two-seater SUVs you CAN buy. The next time someone says there's no such thing in the world as a two-seater SUV, tell someone to go to South Korea. The answer is all over from Seoul to Busan. Even Jeju Island.

Annyeong!
