Mazda CX-7 or Montero Sport 4x2

[bynnos]

I test drove the CX-7 yesterday. It was just a short drive so I couldn't really appreciate the ride. Nevertheless, the CX-7 felt solid and I couldn't complain about the handling.

Napansin ko lang na parang masikip sa likod. The legroom was fine although probably a little tight for a big guy sitting behind the driver seat if I was driving.

Pero yung back seat parang masikip if 3 adults were sitting shoulder to shoulder. It appeared to me na mas malapad and comfortable yung second row sitting ng Santa Fe kahit na tatlong adults pa yung tabi tbai sa likod.

Can someone confirm if mas maluwag and malapad nga 2nd row sitting ng Santa Fe?

Thanks.

Mas malapad ang Santa Fe being a true mid-size crossover with 7 seats to boot (while the CX-7 is more of a borderline between compact and mid-size) according to the dimensions in the specs

SF = 4675 x 1890 x 1795 (in mm)
CX-7 = 4,699 x 1,872 x 1,645 (in mm)

But beyond figures, nasa design na din!
