Hyundai Santa Fe or Toyota Fortuner

The Fortuner's interior is nothing spectacular, but it is still way better than the Tucson's ugly plastican world, Santa Fe's overkill lightings, or even the Alterra drab looks. Overall, if I had to do it all over again, I would still get a Fortuner, anytime.

medyo malakas sa gas yung V6 nila eh, 9km/L ata.

thanks horsepower.

actually thats why i'm okay with the 4x2 since i wont be using it for off road. i just compared it to the 4x4 fortuner because of price. But as you said for 9km/l sa V6 not bad na yun eh the forts 7-8 km lang and in any variant pa yun. dsl or gas. Just wanted to know the crdi. I just sold my 2001 starex and i was getting 5-7km/l and my new starex crdi gets about 7 too. Though this car is heavy, that why i was trying to find out the consumption on the 2.2.

as for the others, i think the korean cars are pretty good na. Imagine i bought my millenium starex in 2001 for 890k and sold it two weeks ago for 510k.. NOT bad for a car used for 5 years. so resale value am not that worried. basta timing lang...

Test drive both units first. Hindi barya barya ang pinaguusapan when it comes to their prices.

I've driven the Fortuner. I find it tolerable. Yes it rides like a truck even at correct tire pressures.

Madami na din akong nakitang Santa Fe's dito sa Q.C. Since I have an off-roader already, the Santa Fe is for me if I had to choose between the two.
