here's the complete list of accessories found on the EX model:

SAFETY:
Driver and passenger airbags; ABS (Anti-lock Braking System); EBD (Electronic Brakeforce Distribution); part-time all-wheel drive with transfer case

EXTERIOR:
Front fog lamps; chrome grille; two-tone body paint; body cladding; roof rack; rear wiper and washer system

INTERIOR:
All leather interior; wood grain paneling; silver interior accents; 60/40 split-fold rear bench

OTHERS:
Power steering, door locks, windows and mirrors; aircon; stereo cassette with in-dash CD player and 6-speaker system; multi-meter (displaying altimeter, external thermometer, barometer and directional compass); keyless entry with immobilizer

for the LX, am sure it'll discard the following:
- ABS, EBD

- leather interior, wood grain panel
- 6-speaker system, multi-meter

baka naman magtaas ng presyo ang kia motors once they know that the demand for the crdi sorento is high? like the picanto..

[OTEP]

Price will be dealer dependent.

I got the prices from Kia Quezon Ave. They are still selling everything at regular price. Even the Picantos.

It is a good value for the money if this is the price range for KIA SORENTO. I test drove this vehicle when I was looking for a replacement of my 7 year-old Subaru Sport Impreza Outback last March. This is one good SUV. But there was only 1 other new SUV that I tested better or has better value for the money, and which is the one I got recently.

I really thought the diesel version would go as high as P1.5 Million when I first saw the price for gasoline version of P1.3 Million. Good for you guys to get a diesel version. We never get those in the States. But then again, diesel fuel is more expensive than gasoline in here. So it probably won't be as economical to get a vehicle with a diesel engine.

I recommend this SUV both for Value and PORMA. Reluctant about reliability though. But since they offer 10 year/100,000 miles warranty for KIA vehicles in the STATES, I considered this SUV as well, together with FORD ESCAPE, BMW X3 and finally, CHEVY Equinox.

Ciao Guys!

the HP is not something outstanding... just good. Pero torque of the CRDi is 340+Nm. Just to give you an idea. The GU patrol 4.5 gas is 350Nm.. and 3.0 GU diesel is 350+Nm. Its just as powerful as the Prado diesel engine sold locally, using the older Toyota engine.

[ILuvDetailing]

I like the monotone version, mas maporma tignan.

Woah 10yr/100,000Mi warranty... now thats standing by your product, sana ganon din warranty nila dito. How about aftersales service? Parts? Maintenance costs? Fuel Economy figures?

[mazdamazda]

jkyamog...

yes... almost at par with the Toyota Prado's engine.

BUT... the Kia's displacement is only 2.5L while the Toyota's displacement is already 3.0L.

[Lensio]

What do you think about this sorento with full body kit?

[yuichi]

[chieffy]

gwapo niyan ah...gwapo din ng presyo ng base model....buti na lang ngayon ko lang nalaman price nito kundi magugulo na naman isip ko

[OTEP]

I was at the dealer today. They had already closed and had to beg the guard to open up. hehehe.

Saw the EX and LX side by side. The EX does not look Php 300k more expensive than the LX.

[epic]

San dealer yan?? Kia Quezon Ave ba?? yan ba yung malapit sa Capitol medical center?? Thnx..

BR,
epic

[OTEP]

Nope. The one near Capitol just sells EX models at an overinflated price.

There is a new dealer. Near the corner of Araneta Ave. Where UMC Nissan was.

Just beside Rapide.

[truckman]
