The SUV Arena - Toyota, Honda, Suzuki, Kia, Hyundai, Proton, BAIC, JAC, Changan, Borgward etc

well its definitely a good prospect but priced above what it shud be.. i think final price will be even higher and that to for 1.5 ltr engine.... but it all depends on the real time looks of the vehicle on road... lets c... i think Proton Saga is an ugly car.. it wont be appreciated here in pak... so it mite not set a good precedence for this Cross over

Hi Everyone,
Can you all please help me here. I have a budget of around 3.5 million and am a great fan of crossovers. So what I think is that I have mainly 2 options. A used Suzuki Vitara 2017 or 18 in good condition for around 32 lacs. Or a used Honda Vezel 2016 (manufactured year) in good condition around 38-39 lacs.
Also if you have any other suggestions or guidance then I would be glad to hear it.

Not to offend Vezel owners but what I read while doing vehicles literature review that DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) is being probably considered for discontinuation or it already has discontinued by Honda, am not sure. It was used in Vezel and Grace.
Vezel models 2015 plus have less DCT issues as per Pw forums, and it seems to be a good vehicle.
Sat in a colleagues Vitara once, it was fine too.
But somehow Vitara hasn't been fully able to penetrate the market and enjoy the popular vote amongst our 🇵🇰 market.
So out of your 2 shortlisted vehicles and budget, I guess 2015 plus Vezel might be a good option, if you can get your hands on one.
@usman1texh, I think has had some experience with Vezels as well. So he might be able to shed some better .

@usman19854
Good info bro

Atleast things have shaken up a bit in our market after SUVs hype (delayed than rest of the world, but better late than never I guess).
Credit, somewhat, gees to Sportage for making a reasonable footprint in market.

[valkyr]

Am personally waiting for Tucson (a bit for Toyota's variant as well, but I guess it will take a lot of time). I have a hunch that Sportage might remain a viable option compared to Tucson, price wise and market hold wise.

Better to buy sportage as it doesn’t even has after sales support.... have used their mini van c37 and regret the decision to buy it... you can’t even find its oil filter not even on their dealerships....

[valkyr]

Dfsk c37?
That's a good point you have.
Am inclined towards sportage.
Just waiting for Tucson... So can compare both on ground.

But patta chalay intazar mein he prices go 🤣

[drmoh8683]

That is another point... to be honest the way dollar is going prices seem to go up...
