    The pricing is very impressive. Hope to see reviews soon.

    Such a huge price difference for the Volkswagen Tiguan just because of the tax ... Audi prices will go down as well since they can also be sourced from China ... do BMW and Mercedes Benz have factories in China? ...

    There's goes Lexus's price advantage ...

    The Lavida looks promising and it positioned its price right smack within the Altis 1.6V and Civic 1.8E. I bet the Jetta 2.0L TDI will have its price go up a bit. The 1.4T tune might be conservative at 128hp/225Nm but that peak torque (similar as the Civic RS) is more than good enough for a zippy ride on city streets.

    The Lamando might position itself at a lower price than the usual Accord and Camry. With the same engine as the Lavida but the tune might be similar to the older Jetta/Golf 1.4T rated at 148hp/250Nm is good enough for what most folks need. Rarely do owners of midsize cars rev up their 2.4L or 2.5L NA engines for spirited rides of more than 4k rpm.

    The Santana is very tempting...

    17 Images: A closer look at the Volkswagen Santana | TopGear PH

    Sayang wala pang AT version.

    I find it also strange na on paper, the Vios' 1.3 engine produces more HP than the Santana's 1.4L engine...

    Base santana is pretty tempting.
    How much features is skimpped remains to be seen. This might dent the current accent sales.
