Kia SPORTAGE "QL" ; Dedicated Discussion, Owner/ Fan Club Thread

[bmuqtadir]

just like a seatbelt or an airbag, user will feel its pointless unless they meet an emergency .. and then its too late.
VSC wouldnt kickin under normal driving situations so how will anyone see its value ..

[waleed80]

Bro just to share, absence of VSC in alpha make vehicle unstable surely it's a myth. Since day first, I drove my alpha on highways and northern areas which includes Lhr-Khi Trips and Galyat of north. Alpha grip is much better than my previously owned Grande and Civic 2014 model. As I am a frequent highway traveler so I found alpha more stable in every aspect. Car Pick is awesome and may be due to 17 inch tyres brakes are responsive. I did not dive FWD or AWD but heard about late brake response but I did not feel it in Alpha. So It's better first to try / test drive for better clarity.

Jaza ka Allah Khair

Brother.... Im glad you are having a wonderful experience and I really wish you and your family stay safe forever

However, as @bmuqtadir said, you won't feel the need of it until it is really needed. In extreme maneuvers and emergency handling, only there the difference pops up. Otherwise, if you don't have to use emergency braking and steer in parallel, you won't feel the need of ABS either. It's a very very important thing to have in the cars, more so for cars raised from the ground.

Bro I didn't get my Sportage yet but yeah I extensively drove many before booking mine. It's delivery is in May insha'Allah.

Yeah I did..... Got it on 3rd Feb. Sold on 5th. Was a tight fit for the family plus suspension was too stiff for our liking

[mgalaxy3]

Far better

Is it really much softer than even Grande?

How does it absorb potholes n bumps..you don't feel them?

At least I found it better than Grande. It's excellent over potholes and bumps. You feel them far less than Grande. Why don't you go to a dealership and get a test drive

[emaanaziz94]

Does any dealerships offer discount too ?

[waleed80]

It was a limited time offer. Not anymore

[uzairfan]

Priced are expected to increase from july since tax exemption under auto policy will finish

[fazalwahab11375]

duty break is for 5 years from the day of the roll out. Sportage started 2019 so, they can get tax break till 2023.. BUT they need to start integrating localized parts by then. So, before 2023, we will see localization of some extend in PKDM

[emaanaziz94]

What was that offer btw?

[waleed80]

What was that offer btw?

By then, Alpha had not been launched. If I recall correctly, there was 3 lacs off on FWD. AWD has no discount (I think). I maybe wrong but it was something like that

[emaanaziz94]

Could you also tell me whats the booking price for both alpha and FWD?

[emaanaziz94]

I was gonna go for Grande X but waited for Elantra that what are they offering now the elantra is out of option my budget is 4.3M. Many users told me to go for alpha sportage or wait for next gen corolla. Do you think alpha is better option than grande X ?
