TV3 anchor woman Glenda Gilson has picked up her wheels as she embraced her new role as brand ambassador for Korean car franchise SsangYong.

The TV3 Xposé presenter, who has recently interviewed such high profile stars as Garth Brooks, George Clooney and David Beckham, was only delighted to embrace her new role.

"I love the SsangYong range, especially the Korando with its high, heated seats.  It drives like a dream. I need something stylish and compact for my work that allows me to nip in and out of town easily, so this is perfect. I’ve also got loads of bits and pieces to get for my wedding over the coming months, so all the room in the back will definitely make life a lot easier!", said Glenda.

As part of the lucrative deal, Glenda has received a top of the range luxury SsangYong Korando. Head of Marketing and Communications at SsaangYong Motors Ireland, Eoin Mulvihill commented, "Glenda is one of the most recognized faces in the country and an anchor woman of one of TV3’s most successful daily TV programmes. Her TV profile is soaring at the moment. Her name is synonymous with style, glamour and powerful performance. She matches the SsangYong Korando perfectly and we’re thrilled to have her on board."
