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

[waqar747]

I wouldn’t say huge but it is significant. Waise it is expected as they are two different category vehicles.
Sportage is heavy and the 2 L NA engine does not have the same power to weight ratio as the Grande.
It’s not a slouch by any means but comparatively it is not as responsive.

I was told delivery can be anytime in the next 10-15 days as production has begun and AWDs and FWDs are rolling out

Haven't received the car yet guys. The sales person called me yesterday afternoon that it was someone else's car.

However he has shared the car invoice with me dated 31st October. The car has still not arrived at dealership.

Lets see what happens. I will post an update on it when I have any news (tomorrow hopefully) :frowning

I wonder if you qualify for KIBOR

[marsalanfarooq]

No. Paid on 25th September

I have a civic x too i hope sportage has a better cvt than it, this thing lags really hard

Sportage isn't CVT bro

[arslanawan222]

Yea got to know it after booking it
I hope it doesn't lag

[waleed80]

No it doesn't. The two major things you will miss shifting from Grande are .....
1. Poor braking
2. Lesser performance

Other than that, it is heads and shoulders above Corolla and Civic in every sense

Company stance is: i promised delivery month X, kibors 60 days start from the tentative delivery month.

Meri abhi yehi larai chal rahi unsay. Im saying i paid full on april 7th, pay me kibor for 98 days. They said k niklo yahan say i wrote tentative delivery aug and august say within 60 days mei delivery kar di and this is our policy. I said i dont care what your policy is, either give me an SRO/law over-writing the auto policy clause or just pay up.

Lets see kia banta hai

How poor is the breaking.Heard its really bad and not the supposed abs quality.Thats the thing which makes me worried.

Yes.....I find it horrible.... Others might disagree with me but the braking is really really poor...pedal is way too soft and brake engages very low down the pedal

I agree. I am always unsure if im pressing the paddle hard enough or not because woh feedback nahi hai jo corolla mei thi. I dont know, pehli dafa break lagai tau the difference was very obvious.

Then there are ppl who say, "it gets better after a while".....yeh better naheen hotee, one starts braking earlier....
Then there is another community who say, "SUV hay.....is kee brakes aisee hee hotee hein".....as per this logic, Prado and V8 should not even stop if you apply brakes

Hamaree qaum Ka masla yeh hey keh whatever we own, we defend it as if it is perfect and descended straight from heavens....we shall call spade a spade and I'm glad you agree here with this aspect

[arslanawan222]

Try getting some aftermarket upgrades.

[waleed80]

getting some aftermarket upgrades

Like what?

[arslanawan222]

So i have to pay the new rate? I booked at the old rate.
This sucks man.

[arslanawan222]

You can check with brembo Pakistan

[waleed80]

You can check with brembo Pakistan

Any alteration will end it's warranty, and keeping in view the crazy prices of its parts, that's something at least I can't afford to do

[marsalanfarooq]
