    Sa hirap maghanap ng parking, kung may nakaharang at pwede naman alisin, tanggalin ko, but the reason why it's there is because someone put it. I wouldn't risk parking there for fear na may gasgas o butas na ang gulong ko pagbalik

    And as sales and quality increased, the Koreans raised prices as well. Not only do the Korean cars now no longer have value for money on their side, they still don't have a loyal brand following either.

    So now China is entering the market with the same formula that the Koreans came with a few years ago, and the same people who were willing to take a chance and give Hyundai a sale are now doing so for the likes of Geely and MG instead.

    I think their entry level accent does not have an airbag.

    And to make matters worse for them, HARI will be in charge na daw of managing/distributing changan models in the country. Pero may bago atang party na magiging in charge for hyundai tho i'm not keen on who exactly is that.

    agree. parang lumaki ulo and they thought they can price themselves at the same, or even higher, level than jap brands. worse, watered down pa ang features. at least AC is doing a better job now with Kia. hopefully, Hyundai Motors can do the same as Nissan.

    there was this article that I shared earlier regarding the Stonic and the Soluto

    The Korean brand will start to phase out production of vehicles priced below 100,000 yuan (USD 15,723) to elevate its brand positioning, according to information disclosed by Yueda [Kia’s joint-venture partner in China].

    The move is intended to address a long-standing problem confronting Kia in China: with low-priced models such as the Pegas [Soluto in the Philippines] and Forte sedans and the KX1 crossover [Stonic in the Philippines], Kia is increasingly seen as a value brand. That has forced it to compete on price with Chinese peers.
    Sadly for Kia PH. The Soluto and Stonic are their top-2 cars sold in 2021

    Sounds like KIA doesn't want to accept the reality that they are a value brand.

    Aside from maybe the Starex, I don't know a single person who would choose to buy a Hyundai or Kia when there is a similar Toyota or Honda model at a comparable, or even higher price.

    That's true.

    A car with no safety features in this day and age? HARI might have just stuck their minds in the 90s to early 2000s.

    This is why i see their reina more than the current gen accent on the roads.

    Even their enty model grand starex does not have airbags as well.
