1st choice Tucson: (Santa Fe is w/in your budget 7-seater)
2.0 GL Gas M/T 988k
2.0 GL Gas A/T 1.038m
2.0 GLS A/T at 1.158m
2.0 GL eVGT 4x4 at 1.338m
If you want to save money get the GL Gas in M/T or A/T form
If you really need to spend that money get the Diesel!

2nd Choice:
Honda Cr-V 2.0 A/T or M/t
We have one, very spacious, better looking interior than the Tucson, nice ride, Fuel Efficient at 8km/l (heavy foot) up to 9.6km/l (light footed).

Don't buy the Escape. Luma na, masikip pa, lakas pa sa gas.
ASX? Hate the interior very small and very bare. Remember the Outlander? Baka i-pullout din agad yang ASX pag nagflop. (Montero Sport is w/in your budget 7-seater too)

Cool What? Nah, I know this car kaso kung budget mo 650k edi go, pero kung kaya 1.3m get a proper SUV.
