1.6 CRDi would have been great. It would have been a good alternative car in the market. I thought it was CRDi coz when I saw their ad in the news paper the soul red line was 4500 rpm. Kinda surprised it's a 2.0 gas.

A 1.6L CRDI powerplant would have been ideal at the sub-1M tag.

But the 1.2M price for a gas is ridiculous. Even the lower priced diesel Hyundai i30 could not move stocks.

Niche buyers na naman.

Tama, yung SX4 wagon hindi weird yung itsura kumpara sa sedan.

Napansin ko sa Top Gear calendar nitong September nasa picture eh Toyota Urban Cruiser. Mukha din syang bB/xB pero mataas ang ground clearance tsaka merong 1.4L diesel tsaka optional AWD.



Kung ipasok ito dito na kapresyo lang ang Corolla, papanaw ang Soul.

Yan din ang Scion xD,hay malabo yan rito,kung yung ngang Toyota Rush na gawang Indonesia di nila nailabas rito eh(yung SUV na based sa Daihatsu Terios) eh eto pa kaya lalo na't gawang Japan tong Urban Cruiser/Scion xD..

I think kung lalabas rito ang Kia Soul EX 1.6 CRDI eh nasa 1.2M Pesos yan parin pero kung aalisin ang sunroof eh magiging 1.150M Pesos yan.. Niche talaga ang car na to tulad ng Dodge Caliber..

ang ganda nakakita ako kanina kaso mahal kung 1.2 m

sa tingin ko ang tamang presyo nito dapat 700 thou kapresyo ng mga sedan

Di puwede unless they sell here a bare version of the 1.6 liter variant at saka 700K narin ang Rio ha..

One has to wonder whether the people behind CAC are aware of their reputation as overpricing nitwits. I mean, any person with common sense would do something about this, like an ad campaign or adding more value-for-money for their cars, but all I can see so far is them even encouraging the stereotype with more of their facepalm-inducing actions.

Niche market. Uh-huh, sure. Do they even want to compete? They could've have had a potential gold mine in the Soul, considering that I know that a lot of people would've preferred a subcompact SUV/CUV for the right money as opposed to a subcompact hatchback/sedan. Right now the only choice for these people is the Suzuki Jimny and it's not exactly the most modern and comfortable car out there.

natatawa ako d2 "Kung ipasok ito dito na kapresyo lang ang Corolla, papanaw ang Soul." ahahaha parang R.I.P.. kaluluwa kasi na naliligaw :xd:

*LeOxe
agree. battle it out with the cool bear at half the price pa.
kaso pwede rin ipanglaban suzuki wagon type R dito eh, luma nga lang
ang dami kasi nun sa cebu, parang katulad ng mga mini pick ups nila, masyadong rampant at napakamura

[roberto_minosa]

Wagon R FTW! Pero wala yatang LHD na Wagon R...maganda sanang alternative sa Jazz yun. Tipong city car na hindi maarte...

Hehehe, tama pala, "tormented Soul".
