    I dont get it... A 156hp Kia Forte Koup with 2.0L naturally aspirated engine is more expensive than the 210hp Hyundai Genesis Coupe with 2.0L turbo??

    I'm not sure, but I think this is only true back there in the Philippines.

    from what I have heard aside from huge appraisals nila sa value ng lumang car na trade-in e pwede ka makakuha ng big discounts when acquiring a Kia, yun nga lang medyo pilitan, like sa Rio ang dinig ko pwede sila mag bigay up to 125k, but not sure kung yun na yung max nila.

    I think kia wants to have that "premium brand" image here in RP that's why they overprice their cars. Unfortunately, people know how to use the internet and can see similar models are sold cheap abroad...

    Kia a premium brand? I don't think so.

    Kaya sabi nila first impressions last, but I think you should ride the new Kia's, baka sakali magbago hehehe. Kia did improved over the years, although di sumagi sa isip ko na they'd like to have that "Premium Brand" thingy, pero siguro nga. :D

    Every company has their own marketing strategy, Columbia posted higher price tags for Kia's para makapagbigay ng bigger discounts? Mas attractive sa customers kasi siguro ang bigger discounts than the real value?

    Jacking up prices? That's a good strategy to drive away potential buyers.

    Yup i agree, if you check Kia's line up and check the SRP's..magugulat ka talaga sa presyo.. you would think na i'll get na lang Honda, Mitsu, Nissan and Toyota.. But you know what guys in my search for an SUV(Montero, Sta Fe, Escape, CRV, RAV4, Tucson, Vitara, Fortuner). I ended up buying Kia, and you know why? Because its cheaper..

    If you are going to buy a car and you are going to pay in Cash mahal ang Kia pero pag installment mas mura ang Kia among the rest..

    I dont know kung bat ganito ang marketing strategy nila coz not everybody knows the deals behind Kia..
