    I will be helping my friend to decide which among the three would be the best option. We've taken a close look at the Sta Fe (the new facelifted version), the Captiva (the 2.0D), but havent personally seen the inside of the Alterra.

    Budget would be between 1m - 1.4m pesos, which would fit the three. We've also read about the bad fuel consumption of the Captiva. All three are 7-seaters and are 2wd. Ano po ba masu suggest nyo pagdating sa fuel economy, practicality, and best overall package? Hindi na namin kinoconsider ang resale value for now. Pero yung support and maintenance din ang concern namin sa Captiva at sa Alterra but overall, we're basically torn between the three. Yung Sta Fe looks promising but the wife (of my friend) prefers the exterior and interior of the Captiva and the Alterra.

    Btw, itong tatlon na lang ang kinoconsider namin among the available SUVs in the market.

    Thanks in advance for your inputs

    Santa Fe din ako... Captiva wala yang merit against the Santa Fe, yung ALterra naman mas lamang sa off-roading ability...

    Thanks mga bro.. konti na lang malapit ko na siya maconvince...hehehe..
    First choice ko din ang Sta Fe..the last (third) row was basically designed with an A/C vent kaya comfortable pa ring ang mga third row passengers which the other two don't have (di ko lang sure sa alterra)..

    I think super cramped pa yung 3rd row seats ng Captiva. Base lang sa tingin. OT: Compared it with the Sorento, yung sa Sorento ok pa eh.

    Kung pang Off-road Altera hands down,

    Pero kung City at Hi-way sa Sta. Fe ako. Sa third row Sta.Fe pa rin, nill ang leg room ng Altera hindi comfortable.

    *Sir SG: Maganda din yung Sorento (especially with the E-VGT engine) kaso mahal..
    *sir Foresterx: Pang city driving lang siya and no off-roading.

    Yung Captiva kasi dinagdagan lang daw ng 3rd row seats (from which it was not really designed for) kaya hindi talaga magiging comfortable yung mga nasa 3rd row. This was according to some sources - no offense sa mga Captiva owners.

    Yung Tucson kinonsider din pero wala kasing 7 seater version and with that price, makaka Sta Fe na.

    For the price of the Tucson CRDi Premium, nakabili ka na ng SF 2WD or Montero Sport GLS 4WD M/T tapos konti nalang GLS SE na

    The tucson is nice. Has all the amenities, pero yung nga kagaya ng sabi ni SG with the price of it ... you can get yourself a sta. fe and mukhang cinoconsider pa ang 7-seater c/suv's.

    Tsaka .... eto lang ha. Tucson vs. Sonata, sonata ako. Ang ganda ! :drool: hahaha
