Sta Fe vs Pilot vs Explorer

[LucasVN]

Guys,

If you were to choose between Hyundai Sta Fe vs Honda Pilot vs Explorer? all are 4x2, what will you choose? I think almost same lang price nila... except for Pilot, which is still not sure...

Thanks
Luke

Sta. Fe for me

Are you buying it in the Philippines? I would normally say Honda but after reading some of the threads here regarding Honda there and the QC and customer service it is not the same as here in the states. I would go with Hyundai there and Honda here if that makes any sense, although Hyundai has that nice 10yr warranty over here that makes it attractive.

I'll go with the Sta. Fe.

does the pilot and sta fe have 3rd row seating? ano engine ng pilot sa atin?

HI,

I think all of them have 3rd row seating, which is one of the factors I want.. Pilot have the 3.5 liter SOCH 24-Valve 60 Degree V6.

For me... it'll be a toss-up between the Explorer (P1.8M) & Santa Fe (P1.5M).

If you want to be practical, the Santa Fe is the way to go since the 2WD variant has a CRDi engine. It looks really sleek and nice.

Meanwhile, the Explorer will give you a pseudo-Expedition SUV with less width and length of the later.

I think here are the engines of the three:

Explorer : 4.0 V6
Sta Fe : 3.3 V6 (Don't know the specs of the CRDI)
Pilot : 3.5 V6

Hi,

Pilot : 3.5 V6

I think the gasoline engine for the RP market Santa Fe is a 2.7 liter V6(base engine of the USDM Santa Fe).
