Musso's strong body structure fitted on reinforced chassis with application of the most sophisticated safety systems applicable in 4 x 4 vehicles were on display during Formula Motor-show.  Large audience interested in automotive in-general was pleased to have for the first time displayed in Motor-show opportunity to see every part of Musso 4x4.  Seeing is believing , better than 1,000 words was display of Musso chassis fitted  with all, staring from engine , automatic transmission coupled with transfer case for 4 x 4  operation , electronically controlled, massive  propeller shafts transferring high engine torque to front and rear differentials. Musso's suspension is surprise of it self, as most of visitors had for the first time chance to see torsion double wish- bone system applied in Musso front suspension set- up.

One is not obligatory to be expert to recognize strength of Musso large 4 x 4 it is obvious at the first glance.

But today, SUV customers are more demanding they are looking for comfort, luxury and safety. Musso has it all. Just enter into large size salon and sit on driver's seat which you can adjust electronically. Luxury full leather seats and interior in combination with fine wood on dash board and door's side-panels, automatic climate control with control with digital display screen just above audio DIN 2 system with digital automatic control too will unmistakably associate to luxury salon seen in luxury limousines. All this with precise workmanship in details, confirming that perfection is shown in details.

What about safety?

Well, part of safety is recognized on the first glance, such as a big size brake discs and ABS control unit with wide low profile tires, guaranty for road holding on all- terrains and situation. 

What can be see can be filled, it is 4x4 operation electrically controlled on press on bottom while driving up the speed of 70 km/h without stopping a car. This is giving incomparable safety for 4 x 4 vehicles, also the torque distribution between front and rear axle is automatically adjusted in 4 x 4 modes.

Inside city driving, the most of drivers are choosing economical 4x2 mode, by simple press on button and electronically the front wheel hubs are disengaged and this additionally lowers the fuel consumption.

Musso although is large powerful luxury 4 x4, Musso  is very economical being powered with famous type of diesel engine, turbo-charged and inter-cooled, high torque engine with torque flat curve, meaning that maximum torque is available in from relatively low RPM to almost maximum RPM.  Such engine characteristics are providing comfortable and economical driving.  

It is not all. It was just rational observation of the most of customers that reserved  Musso during Formula Motor-Show in December 2005. Is there anything to be attributed to emotional part of purchasing decision, we have asked many of Musso owners. Yes of course the Musso looks masculine, I like the Musso design the most of them replied. One of the customers  said something that sounds like definition, he said my  new Musso looks like classic of modern time.
