Yes!, Just saw Farhans test drive review and the showroom owner says 5 years warranty when Farhan asked if the 3 Cylinder engine was actually worth it.

Kia and Hyundai warranty seems to be benchmark in US.. lol the fingerprints are way funny and its typical most of the time in the auto industry..

Dnt know about newer models but kia had a 7 year bumper to bumper in the US i think. That even included the paint with some fine print.

Wahan ke log bhee to ethical hain. Yahan people won't change engine oil for the whole 150,000 kms and claim warranty

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2021-02-10 11:59:08 +0500 #306

I wish it was that easy to claim... there are too many fine prints when it comes to claims.

Like in layman language, there are three parts interconnected or works in conjunction with each other..

A --- B --- C.

C stopped working because of the issue with B. In some cases the warranty covers the A but not the B and subsequently the C. In some cases covers A and B and not the C.

BTW, the near billion $ class action lawsuit could be less than half if KIA and Hyundai entertained warranties and claims which were genuine , related to engine issues.. they kept on declining it until things went out of control..

Will Saga be CBU at first then ?
Just like X70 limited units first then CKD ?

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2021-02-11 19:07:55 +0500 #314

Yes 100 units and Premium AT variant only as far as I know.

pwuser159259702854 (Ahmad Abdullah) 2021-02-11 19:15:30 +0500 #315

Oh okay so only AT for now

faakhir19 (Faakhir Farooq) 2021-02-12 01:26:30 +0500 #316

No. Three variants

salik990 (salik990) 2021-02-12 11:21:13 +0500 #317

my friend is the owner of Proton South Khi told me Saga launch is on 25th Feb, maybe it has been delayed till March. I have seen Saga at the showroom at the time of X70 launched/booking.

salik990 (salik990) 2021-02-12 11:24:11 +0500 #318

yes cbu is coming first and there will be 3 variants, price starting from 2m-2.5m but they are trying the price to be lower than 2m probably in ckd.

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2021-02-13 20:23:22 +0500 #319

Shahid Afridi signed up as Brand Ambassador for X70.
A video shoot / official TV commercial coming soon.

wasiqshahab94 2021-02-13 20:33:05 +0500 #320

Surprised that Afridi wasn't picked up by Afridi 2.0 for MG.

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2021-02-13 21:03:43 +0500 #321

I think a tweet in this regard would be coming soon..
