Hyundai Tucson GLS Theta II 2WD vs. Kia Sportage EX Theta II 2WD

I would say Sportage wins the front, Tucson wins the rear.

Dashboard of the Kia Sportage


Instrument cluster

Initial impressions from me. Not as refined as the Mazda cx7, but I need to see it first hand first But overall, I like the interior better compared to the Tucson.

^ oo nga. medyo cluttred na yung rear ng Kia, too much curves pero nakita ko na ito side by side. In Appearance mas macho yung Sportage.

Tawag ko diyan sa dalawa si butt ugly at si ***y back :hysterical:

I like the 2-level dash of the CX-7. Ok yung pwesto ng MID niya nasa gitna para kahit passenger pwede i-monitor yung FC, outside temp, etc..

Hahahahaha! Perfect couple? LOL

Yeah, something tells me that I will enjoy the CX-7 as much as the old X-Trail that I had a few years back.

[Starex_Gold]

Ito yung acceptable na rear ng CX-7, gawin nalang dual exhaust.



CX-7 Diesel.

Yeah, you will enjoy driving the CX-7. Yung X-Trail 250 na-drive ko na rin. Very conservative kasi ang looks kaya never ko naisip na ganun pala ang X-Trail. Na-shock ako, panalo talaga.

In 2003, when it first arrived in the Philippines it was not exactly conservative. It offered tons more than the CRV and RAV4. Beat them in every category specially with the powerful engine, only thing I don;t like is the body roll. The double dash design was not conservative at all back then IMO. Now it looks generic. hahaha

Probably a more conservative taillight for the CX-7 will help a bit as well.

[Starex_Gold]

BTW, yung CX-7 smoked taillights tsaka bigger yung spoiler..

[slvrsrfr2301]

Basically Hyundai = Kia. Both have 5 years warranty.

So Tucson = Sportage. Same suspension, same engine, same transmission, same fuel consumption. Different looks & features for the Theta II variants.

Resale value, di na katulad dati.

Yeah, CX-7 is a great car. But the rear doesn't look good at all (no pun intended)

My vote goes to the Tucson & Sportage (that's why we have both)

naks si sir sg oh. tucson na sportage pa! mas malaki po ba yung sportage sa tucson? muka kasing mas malaki....tama ka sir, ganda nga ng tucson, may bagong tucson na ba? sa grad kasi yun isa sa sinabe ni dad, o crv daw ulet, or fd. ganda nung tucson....

One thing that worries me is if in fact I decide to get the CX-7. Mazda then decides to make improvements with the rear design a few months after. Hahahaha

Pareho lang.. Mukha lang mas malaki yung Sportage kasi macho yung design.

Wala pa bagong Tucson. MMC lang siguro next year. Projector headlights I think. Bago na rin yung key fob ng lower variants ng Tucson as of June 2011..
