All New 2013 Kia Carens

[Cons29]

guys feedback naman about suspension, diba sumasayad? say 5 adults with some bags? not overloaded naman, thanks. Looking to get an ex, just a bit worried about this. thanks

Meron along Accent HB. Mababa rin ground clearance nun. Pag mapadaan ka sa mataas na humps at di ka mag menor, sasayad talaga dahil may talbog pag daan ng humps. Isa pa yung parking barriers as Sm malls especially, sasayad yung chin.

sasayad pati chin? so dapat when you park hindi aabot dun.. tsk, this is making me worried. gusto ko pa naman ng carens (either this or montero glx)

[bloowolf]

Dapat parking reversed palagi. But overall, that whole Caren's package is worth it. You just have to be more careful. FYI, I saw a Police cruiser with 5 cops on board. Nag bottom out na. Yung sayad issue is not confined to Korean cars.

this would be my first car (though we have a mazda 3 owned by my father) so i am not too familiar.
i asked dun sa KIA na SA to ask sa service nila what are my options para malaman ko kung ano pwede gawin (bigger tires? or do something about the suspension)
kung meron na pong nag taas ng height, baka pwede mag share po. maybe 2 inches will be a big help na?

another question po pala sa mga owners. Magaan ung steering wheel di po ba? pag naka sport mode ba mas mabigat na? naisip ko kasi baka walang feedback ung manibela kahit high speed (100kph). saglit lang po kasi test drive na nagawa ko, tapos i forgot to test ung ibang mode. thanks is advance

for me ok lang ang manibela sa sport mode doing 100 maintained speed and140 kph overtaking speed at nlex and slex.

sori double post.

[Cons29]

Ty po sa reply. Concern ko na lang now is yung height, sa province kasi (pag umuwi) medyo maraming sasayaran.

ser Cons29, ang temporary solution sa sayad is to drive more careful as well as yung Rubber Spring Lifter (i wouldn't recommend Osulee's 3pc. setup though go for a single piece solution) wala pa kami sinasayaran...di na kasing dapa ang pwet kapag loaded....

as per steering effort, though you might find "Sport" mode very light when maneuvering in the parking lot...pero it actually gets more weight as you build-up speed, medyo artificial though...but its ok with me....

for city heavy traffic mga : 12li/100km sya.... pero on hiway kaya nya mga 5 to 6li/100km. it all really all depends on the traffic/road condition and your driving style.... those above numbers are real world figures though....

over-all matipid sya.

[Cons29]

Would the lifter make it stiffer? Medyo matigas kasi, ramdam mo bawat bump

[bulletred]

tahimik naman ng carens...ano na balita share nyo nman experience nyo sa carens..

[parakitoJDM]

[EQAddict]

Dapat sports mode lang kapag lagpas ng 120 kph. Natest ko na sa sctex doing 200kph +++ sa straight and wala naman wiggle.
