Possibly 2015 talaga. Hindi ko lang talaga sure kung kailan. Puro spy shots parin kasi

My wife drives a Tucson crdi, 4WD, 6 speed, automatic.

HID headlamps - check
Aux driving lamps - check
Sat-Nav - check
DVD player - check
AUX connections - check
3 DC plugs (2 in front, 1 at the rear) - check (great for charging your gadgets)

And many more.

So far, she's very satisfied. Me too.

Thanks for the feedback sir. My friend lent me his 4x4 Gas AT for a week and I was pretty satisfied with it. My only complaint was the spongy brake feel, but overall I think it was a really good car.

I think I'll wait for the crop of new compact SUVs scheduled to arrive next year before making my decision para no regrets..

Happy wife, happy life.

My wife enjoys driving our CX-5 2.0. Feels small compared to its size ung driving dynamics and it has a high safety rating na rin, ABS w/ EBD, stability control, traction control and 6 airbags. Not a very fast (acceleration-wise) CUV which is OK lang naman because we don't have a lot of long highways (or good roads, or non-tricycle/jeepney infested areas) here to flex those engines but it is quick and agile naman sa city. We get 9-10 km/L sa mostly city driving (moderate to heavy traffic) which I think is good enough fc.

also waiting for the HRV. based from it's pricing in thailand, it seems that it will slot in between the jazz and the crv, probably around P1M to 1.3M. interior seems exactly like the jazz with a bigger cargo space. engine options vary from 1.5 to 1.8. hopefully, we get the latter.
