So guys.... which is better....Sorento or Tucson? Lalo na ako naguluhan!!! Santa Fe would be out of match for the two...diba? because of it's older body style

Sir, cant really compare Tucson at Sorento mag kaiba sila nang category, tucson being a Compact SUV/CUV Sorento being a Mid Size. Pag labas nang bagong Sportage dun mas maganda ang match

I cant say na out matched ang Sta Fe, i haven't driven one yet its just that mas gusto ko lang talaga ang porma nang Sorento..

Pero when I test drove the Sorento i really felt I did an upgrade from my previous vehicle which 2007 CRV. The handling and the relax feeling of driving a Sorento makes me wait for the CRDI variant kahit kailangan ko muna bumili ng temporary car just to wait for Sorento diesel.

Take Note the pricing of the Sorento CRDI already came out and they are really a practical choice:

4x2 CRDI Diesel 5 Seater P1.595M less 300K = P1.295M Pre Selling Price
4x4 CRDI Diesel 7 Seater P1.690M less 300K = P1.390M Pre Selling Price

The only problem for me right now is the waiting but "PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE"

Pa share lang, yesterday at Kia Fairview, I had a chance to have a little chat with the aircon tech there, sabi nya this year lang may dumating na technician from kia korea and nag visit sa mga dealer nila, introduced some tools and software para gamitin specially sa mga new car models. And also to test our diesel, unfortunately wala daw pumasa sa mga diesel natin pati galing sa Big 3 company, isa daw ito sa reason kaya delayed ang dating ng Sorento CDRi diesel they are looking for a solution before selling the units. Ewan lang kung gano katotoo ito.

Can someone confirm this, this is critical info..
Kaya pala gas yung naka display sa Eastwood kanina sabi sa Oct pa raw ang diesel.

PERO DHAYUM!! I just became a convert on Korean Cars..Ang ganda neto

Feel mo talaga ang classy ng interiors lalo na magkalapit yung unit ng Kia at Volvo na SUV, di nagkakalayo or equal ang dating ng interiors. Bilib nako sa Korean vehicles..Plus eto pa...sabi ng ahente 5 years warranty or 160,000KM whichever comes first..tindi..

Boss Xander......

matulog ka naman....sobra ng pagmamahal sa Sorento mo!!! hahahhahaa!!!

Actually that diesel issue is really scary.. I think kaya siguro nagkaissue ang D4D ng Toyota is because of our dirty diesel. I guess it is the effect of the government's taxation the petroleum companies are not following the right mixture to make clean diesel para to retain their profit margin. It is obvious it is not our diesel vehicles that is polluting the environment but the 3 big petroleum companies that produces substandard diesel fuel. Kawawa naman talaga ang bayan natin!

If Kia doesn't find a solution for this....I think they will not come out with diesel variant....kaysa masira sila and be like Toyota D4D. Mukhang tatama ang sinabi ni Gen Miting na dealers would make money from the interest of downpayments made by those who have reserved. But all what I said are of my opinion....pwedeng mangyari lang po!
