Best Budget SUV

[lui]

Need your help and expert opinions.

What's the best budget (ie <1.2M) SUV in the market today?

in terms of:
1. Fuel Economy. (tucson crdi, sportage, everest)
2. Looks. (for me lang. xtrail white or ecape na red)
3. Ride. (tucson madalas ko magamit. d matagtag)
4. Performance. (crv na 4x4 ganda ng performance. smooth ang bigay ng power)

Thanks a lot.

yan lang po

I think no one suggested it because (at least for most people) its ugly. Ang weird talaga ng design ng SsangYong. Personally, you wouldn't catch me driving one unless I have a paper bag covering my head Peace to SsangYong owners.

The benefit of CRDI VGT over petrol is power. LOTS of power.

Add to that, the benefits of diesel efficiency.

Dare I mention: Chery Tiggo

Surprising good to drive and cheap to buy. No idea on the long term ownership though.

Tiggo 1.6L Manual = 699,000.00
Tiggo 2.0L Auto = 799,000.00

That's where the 5-year warranty comes in. Because you never know... :D

probably we don't see too much of it on the road... the more we see it, the more people will recall, know more about it to see if it is worth recommending. Yes sir tidus, i agree with you with its weirdness and it is very unlikely for me to own one as well... :peace:

sana lumabas na yung mitsubishi concept-cX! otherwise, i think the tucson will do for now...

i know this sounds off-tangent: TRY THIS: Strada 2.5 GLS 4x4- P1,090,000 + carryboy canopy- approx. 70-80k can make a good SUV substitute!!!

Wonderful idea!!!......if you are considering an SUV (or a sport utility truck as one ad may claim) in its true sense of the word...not those car-based road queen crossovers.

1. you still get a 5-seater utility vehicle
2. larger cargo hold at the back
3. 4x4 capability which you cannot get at this price range for SUV (except the Jimny)
4. spacious than the all the CUVs in the market

Perhaps the other option to achieve these features is to own the first-gen Montero Sport (5-seater, 4x4, diesel SUV)...which you can get pre-owned.

strada with canopy? had a strada but never considered installing one, parang mas mahirap abutin gamit sa kadulo dulohan

OK lang pre. Mura lang naman ang paper bag kumpara sa value na nakukuha namin sa Ssangyong.

Budget SUV? I'd go for the Forester 2.0X. I would've gone for something else a few months back. But the Foz's moonroof, AWD, and Subby rep at a budget price are just too hard to ignore.

AFAIK, the foz is the only one with a moonroof. The Foz, the Actyon, and maybe the Jimny are also the only ones with AWD/4WD at the budget level.
