I can't believe they're from the same platform, they look like totally different cars. Yes, it's pricier but price isn't everything. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickster 5th Gear January 20, 2020 Share January 20, 2020 On 1/14/2020 at 12:51 AM, RevStarZen said: Doesn’t matter where it’s made from-considering the specs that comes with it...lotsa choices can be had for $116K. Exactly! It's not where it is made that is the problem...its the price tag! I guess for most of Kia/Hyndai buyers, they are practical people who are not too bothered about "face" value. So made in India should be fine, but the price must reflect that lor. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the Hyundai and Kia we have are on the left. Yes very plasticky cabin esp the doors. Feels more like a Maruti Suzuki Vitara Bezza than what Kia can offer these days But... in India, this is considered a lux car liao… How many locals can afford this? My first car back in 2006 was a Kia Rio, remembered it was signal stock on the right. Maybe they've changed... I still prefer stalks on the right, easier to drive and signal with one hand + its a breeze having a beverage while driving. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lifespan completely beat the shit outta those over hyped and over promised brands eg Bosch and even GS Yuasa 100% made in India also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So as much as I love its design and the FL model max equipment list (really everything is including the kitchen sink are included), I will not consider the Niro... The dramatically reduced power op to suit our Cat A COE thingy is another turn off for me also. Never ever buy any cars with any VES rebate. Your annual depreciation curve is more like a straight line drop than a curve. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
