AoA everyone, I'm seeking experts opinion on my situation. I'm going to buy my first Sedan/Crossover SUV and I've been driving hatchback till date.

I have 3 million in my savings for car and I'll be leasing rest of the amount from bank. So, please guide on which car to buy.

Sportage alpha really looks good to me as it seems more value to money whereas grande seems a bit expensive. (I'm naive in this so please go easy on me.)

If you guys could share the major pros and cons of both cars or any other good car option then that would be really good. My intention is to keep the car for quite some time but if needed, I'll upgrade the car to buy a crossover SUV. Please guide me. Thanks!

why you didn't consider elantra? it's a decent option

Due to unavailability of parts and resale issue. For instance, Suzuki Ciaz was a great car but we all know what happened with Ciaz and I'm afraid Elantra's fate is similar IMHO.

nooo
ciaz was a cbu and elantra is ckd
hyundai nishat has invested billions and they aren't going anywhere, they will stay here for sure
elantra, sonata and tucson are already performing well in market, from June 21-Nov 21 figures
elantra 1280, sonata 1071, tucson 1091 units

If you are considering stonic but not elantra....stay confused.

Dont know about know, but about 3 months back a friend had some trouble and had to replace tie rod ends on his Kia, it took 1 week for just the parts to arrive in Lahore for Karachi.

Stonic, elantra, dfsk glory 580 and all new entrants have parts availability issue. What do you think of this?

hassan3344 (Hassan) 2022-01-03 13:59:42 +0500 #8

Elantra's parts availability issue is a deal breaker for me. What do you think of this?

So what do you recommend? Getting a grande? There are news for the arrival of 12th gen corolla in mid 2022.

I also think Elantra is a better option between all those.
