Help! Buying new Santa Fe soon!

Yep it seems yung engine may changes sa 2010 pero mukang same body pa rin. Eto yung link, I found it na...

Its the new 2.2L R-engine producing a power of 147Kw (that is 200HP) and a MASSIVE 436Nm of torque at an impressive 2000 RPM. Imagine at just 2000 RPM ang lakas ng torque nyan. This is a mobile rocket. Eh yung current Santa Fe ang tulin na sobra eto pa kaya? And best of all its still a 2.2L engine so fuel consuption should be comparable.

2010 daw ang release...

Yep Kia mostly borrows engine from Hyundai, sister company sila.

*tidus1203, between Hyundai and Kia, d ba mas dependable ang Hyundai? D ba mas marami ang Hyundai dealers vs. Kia?

Thanks for the inputs, tidus1203. still researching.......... balik Honda ako after selling my MS 3.2L 4x4 GLS......... d ba ikaw may Honda din......... parang ang sarap gamitin comimg from a big SUV kasi. Tapos ang liksi kasi nung SF na tinest drive ko............

sir curious lang bakit po niyo binenta MS 3.2 4x4 e bagong labas pa lang po yun?

Kung car reliability pareho lang yan pero sa US mas mataas ranking ng Hyundai kaysa Kia sa JD Powers initial quality surveys. Mas maganda nga network ng Hyundai kaysa Kia locally, and Hyundai provides 5 years warranty while Kia provides the standard 3 year warranty.

Hyundai's 5 year warranty really proves that their product will give you the comfort that you need for at least 5 years.

After using the MS for approximately 5 months, I missed the response of my Honda Civic plus I was able to test drive the SF which really has a car like handling. I have no qualms with the MS as an SUV, the issue is not the vehicle, the issue is me.......he he he....... matanda na ako and now I need car like handling vehicles........ dati kasi I had a 4x4 Trooper, nabigatan ako, then the D-max, nahirapan ako sa turning radius......., the MS is nice but I won't go Offroading .........
