    -ride? wallowy on roads; pretty decent off it.
    -performance? what a true SUV should be....4WD, can tackle any driving conditions, etc...

    For a price of less than 800,000 thousand.
    The only thing that is a problem with the Jimny is the interior space... or the lack of it. It is only big enough to just fit four people inside, barely.

    The 1.3L engine is a bit puny but the gearing it just right. If you want more power, I think SPEEDLAB has developed a turbo-intercooler upgrade for it.

    Very good suggestion. I completely forgot the Ford Everest. Meron manual tranny for less than P1.3M which is what the TS budget is. And its as spacious as the 1.5M SUV's. Kaso when I test drived the Everest, it feels heavy and its kinda hard to drive since mahaba (sanayan lang). Also the bumpiness for me is near borderline not acceptable. But test drive it first if you feel okay with the bumpiness and ease of driving.

    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.

    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.
