    Looks nice. From P2.4M to P2.65M based on the variant (4x2 or AWD, 6 seater or 7 seater).











    The Maxcruz is a good replacement for your Explorer. It competes directly with it and has a cheaper cost of ownership and higher resale value.

    The what? Hehe.

    Bakit kaya MaxCruz (I know it was supposed to replace the Veracruz but can't they think of a different name?) hindi nalang Veracruz or Santa Fe (since kilala na ng tao 'to) hehehe

    From the news the Santa Fe replaces the Veracruz also in line with the LWB of the Santa Fe aka MaxCruz. Hehehe.. Parang kamag anak ko ito.

    I agree with you that Hyundai should have named this as Veracruz. But since this is the LWB Santa Fe, it should be named Grand Santa Fe outside of the US.

    lol. I wont be replacing my new explorer anytime soon. Was thinking this maxcruz instead of the trailblazer which I still don't have lol. But am debating it.....


    After all I would have to add another 700k or so....

    According to Pitstop only the fully optioned models will be brought here. No bare model. So the 4x2 will have self park, blind sport warning, power lift gat, etc. There are 4 variants in all: 6 seater 4x2, 7 seater 4x2, 6 seater awd and 7 seater awd. All have exact same ammenities except for the drive train and seating configuration.

    Since this will arrive by May, by that time your Trailblazer which is just sitting inside the storage warehouse of Chevy Commonwealth will be at your garage. BTW, I asked Hancars and Pitstop, their units also have CSRs.

    Good day mga sir.

    My SF3 is due for its first PMS. I called Hyundai Quezon Avenue earlier regarding this, and they quoted the cost around 6.5k for 7 liters fully synthetic oil and filters and would take about 2 hours depending on the queue. Does the cost on par with what everyone encountered? Sorry for the noob question, this is my first experience with Hyundai. Thanks.

    From what I know, the SF3 is slightly larger in terms of interior space than the previous model. It is wider than the montero, so 2nd row is more comfortable, however, it is shorter so the montero has better legroom and ceiling space on the 3rd row. The interior is larger than the CRV and RAV4 and Escape, but smaller than the TBZ.

    Oh I thought you were referring to the LWB SF3. My bad. I was just amazed because you said that the new SF3 SWB's interior is larger than Escape and CRV kasi a some of my friends said na halatang mas malaki ang escape and CRV by looking at it from the outside. (note: we really haven't actually seen the interior, puros exterior lang sa mga parking lot sa malls, which is why I want to ask someone who has really seen the interior).

    Does everyone here agree that the interior of the SF3 SWB is larger than the Escape/CRV? If so then this is good news =)

    bjreyes - maraming salamat ulit sa reply sir

    Test drove a SF and Tucson CRDi a while ago at Hyundai Quezon Avenue. SF's a better option, lighter steering wheel effort than the Tucson especially sa Comfort Mode. And the ride is also better than the Tucson. I also noticed that NVH levels of the SF are better than the Tucson. So SF3 is my choice for my mom's new car. Going back this Holy Wednesday to test drive both Hyundai SUVs again, this time with the parents. Looks like we have to add another 300k pesos so that mababa lang monthly amortization namin.

    *SF3 owners, what is the recommended engine oil viscosity and API/ACEA classification?

    *numbah5. If you're getting the PHDM, no choice ka but to use the HGMO full synthetic.. Ang rating ata nya is CF... Tapos ang ACEA is B4..

    Kinaibigan ko dati pa yung 2 service advisor ng HQA (Luigi and Aien) pati Service Manager nila (Ricky). Pinapayagan akong magdala ng own oil for my dad's Sonata with 200+ pesos corkage fee. Sa SF3 kaya anong recommended API/ACEA rating na nakalagay sa manual? Pati viscosity?

    Yes po, according to the service booklet, labor is free for the 1k and 5k PMS. The 10% discount of oil and filter, they point it as discount related to their C.A.M.P. promo.

    For my 1k and 5k PMS, the two liters, out of the 6.7 or 7 liters, is to be shouldered by my SA as part of his quotation which I have accepted. It's not much but it's better than nothing.

    The HGMO full synthetic is ACEA B4, kaso ang problema nya is CF siya and not CI4 which is more suitable for Crdi engine.

    *bjreyesmd.. I think I saw your car last week.. papasok ng hospital..

    4) Rav4

    Mas malaki pa din ba interior ng 2013 SWB Santa Fe kaysa sa CRV/Montero/RAV4/Escape and old santa fe?
    I was describing the SWB Santa Fe, kindly refer to my answer on page 154
