2019 Kia Sportage test drive

[StockEngine]

"Standard" Technology package includes:
Blind Spot Monitoring
Rear Cross Traffic Alert
Lane Departure Warning (includes Lane Keep Assist)
Collision Mitigation System (car itself will apply brakes even if the driver does not press on the brakes)
Adaptive Cruise Control (KIA vehicle automatically adapts cruise control speed according to the vehicle in front)
Hill Start Assist
Hill Hold Control
Adaptive HeadLight (whether you are making a curve or on high beams or not)

etc. etc.

For me those tech package features are the most important for a safer driving experience.

that package is standard in the US and maybe Canaduh.

wala naman ganyang standard sa pinas..

Sad but true. Locally, companies like MI/Subaru offers those safety features in their TOTL and some mid-trim variants. But it's still not "standard" across the range.

That's what happens when we live in a tertiary market. The sales, or lack thereof, they make here won't affect their bottom lines either way, as long as their primary markets like North America and some parts of Europe fill their coffers adequately.

Personally, as long as they provide all the things listed on the brochure, I wouldn't mind getting one.

It's on my shortlist, just waiting for my test drive. SA says a unit may be available in about 2 weeks.

Wish me luck!

ang hindi ko matanggap na katotohanan is ang presyo ng bentahan ng mga units ng car companies sa North America at Europe ay parehong halaga ng bentahan ng same units ng mga yan sa Pinas pero tinanggal nila yung standard technology package.

Specs are not bad...

Medyo dated na din yan Kia Sportage design, kung ako si Ayala wag na nya ibenta yan, antay na lang sya ng bago Sportage unless of course they offer it at 200k than the CRV diesel

Lets face it sira ang reputation ng Kia ngaun because of the sell-off. You cant just come in and offer a fully loaded unit. Ano yun bigla bibible mga tao? I doubt that

First choice ko din sana yan KIA Sportage pero nung mapuna ko na kinaltas ang technology package nagbago isip ko.

This is a pricelist sent by an agent who added me to her viber. Siguro there are surplus units left from CACC dealers still have. As I recall, AC Ind. will sell 2019 models only. Either way, the 2018 GT-Line is worth checking out since it is more fully featured than the 2019 EX (as I recall, since I erased the brochures already.

I was actually offered a 2018 GT-Line sir Bloo, I might also consider it if the specs are actually better than the 2019 EX variant. I've asked the SA to update me as soon as their 2019 unit comes so I can see them both in person and compare.

Care to join me at KIA-Kalookan? I would value your opinion on this. Sagot ko na po yung pang Jollibee, haha, just kidding. Landers tayo, malapit lang dun.

So many buyers want features ... yet few are willing to pay for it ... they want it for free ...
