Car for my sis.

[beni23]

Guys, patulong naman kung ano magandang car for my sis. Nagcocommute kasi siya everyday, almost 30kms ang tinatravel niya. I just got off the phone with my dad and he's leaning towards the kia sorento which is priced at 1.380m daw. Nung una carens daw pero sabi ko parang mababa.

Since nasa ganung price range naman ang budget ng dad ko, ano pa kaya ang car na maisasuggest niyo?

My concerns are
1. Safety - medyo aanga anga kasi kapatid ko. In fact, tuturuan ko pa lang siya kapag nakabili na ng sasakyan.
2. Fuel consumption - traffic lagi dito sa metro.
3. Looks - syempre gagamitin ko din minsan. Haha
4. Features
5. Maintenance - mahirap o mahal ba ang mga pyesa nito? How about PMS?
6. Engine performance
7. Diesel-fed is a plus.

Thank you mga ka-tsikot!

i think the sorento will be too big in the streets of metro for a newbie lady driver. get her a small suv if she doesn't need the size of the sorento.

Maintenance/PMS
So far my experience at the casa (valle verde branch) has been hassle free since I have bought my ASX. The ASX shares major mechanical parts with the Lancer EX 2.0.

Conclusion:
The ASX would be just right. Its small enough to be easy to drive in even the tightest of spots but big enough to have it's "presence" felt when driving around other cars. Although not the most powerful SUV/CUV, it has an engine that provides enough performance to match the handling of the chassis. You would feel confident to drive this CUV through anywhere in any type of weather.
