It actually looks like a proper suv whereas the existing one looks more like a people carrier/van.

Santa Fe competitor I believe but has Santa Fe done well locally?

It all depends on the price

Could it be that they launch Sportage and Sorento at the same time?

No I think they are launching the sportage before sorento

Guys, the pricing is so bad that we dont even need to discuss it. Let few people buy it and have the taste of haste. Its a big flop. they have to come 2 million for each version. ridiculous. aint they know santafe hybrid pricing?? the 3.5 v doest even have ADAS and is tregistration will be another million or 1.5. stupid KIA marketing team.

Lene wala lelega bhai jaa ke yehi price aani thi is gaari ki.

2M less would mean 14M for the AWD HEV. In your world they should price a newer gen with a multitude of more features less than the older gen Santa Fe?

The one thing I agree with is the segmentation between V6 and FWD is unclear. They have randomly differing features - FWD has bigger wheels, V6 has 360 cam, and V6 will probably end up costing more than the FWD all things inclusive. Which one is supposed to be the highest version, and why?

perhaps you are too quick to jump to conclusion. Laynay walay lay laytay hain aur phir sportage ke tarha zaleel hutay hain. Itna competition hay but paksitanion ke aqal wohi paindu corolla wali.

dala kadasssan. itni auqat hay nahi jitna own day daitay hain desi buyers.

Perhaps I am, but I am not digressing. Own is irrelevant to the price discussion. Quite to the contrary, the lower the price the higher the demand, leading to higher premiums.

What's the closest competition to the Sorento HEV AWD?
