Parehas lang nang pricing ang Kia at Hyundai rito pero at least may 5 year warranty na ngayon sila..Kung mayroon lang sanang local assembly plant ang Kia at Hyundai rito malamang bumaba ang presyo nila..

Yung Tucson talaga ay para talagang Veracruz kaya nasa 1.3M Pesos nayan...

Nope, alam ko wala pang units dito sa Pinas. I just generally frequent the Hyundai City. Kaya alam ko yung vehicles that will come out and also know yung pricing nila kaya alam ko kung taga or good deal based on local and also International prices based on which country they'll land in. Totoo nga mas mura pa ang mga units papuntang Europe considering mataas rin ang taxes nila at mas malayo ang destination cost ng pag de-deliver ng units. Politika lang at corruption ang nagpapamahal sa mga vehicles naten.

Sana di nila tanggalin yung twin skyroof.

I suggested to them that they can beat the Ford Focus TDCi here in the Phils by introducing a Hyundai Accent R. Same naman ang displacement, 2.0L pero pumping out a staggering 184hp at gawin pa nilang rear wheel drive, 6 speed manual and A/T and this will be a Focus killer!

Never mind about the twin clutch tech of the Focus. The twin clutch just helps deliver power smoothly from odd to even gears PERO what's the use of the twin clutch when you only have 134hp and 340nm of torque to play with diba.

Just add leather seats, 6 speaker system, bodykit, 4 wheel disc brakes, ABS, EBD, LSD, 2 or 6 airbags and ok na! Sabi lang nila "oh really? Interesting! Noted!"

Nice SUV! Has resemblance of a Jaguar's hood. But it seems the rear ceiling is too low.

I hope the price bracket wouldn't be in the current Honda CRV range.

I noticed yung bagong diesel pala mas malakas pa ang HORSEPOWER kaysa dun sa gas version. Ngayon lang ako nakakita ng diesel > gas in horsepower with the same displacement and the same manufacturer. GO HYUNDAI DIESEL!

R Spec na kasi iyan bro....

8505:bat:

**tidus1203** · August 28th, 2009 07:57 AM

Right. Yung na nga galing R engine kasi for the first time (at least sa mga nakikita ko) mas mataas pa HP nya to an equivalent gasoline engine. Its a breakthrough of sorts...

I heard November launching nyan dito. New Tucson is expected to be about 200k higher than similar specced old models daw.
