    You're doing a great review in your own versatile way, mainly focusing on in-depth details, as you mentioned about the steering response in the twisted corner, which is precisely what I felt when I was test driving this car. Keep it up, mate!

      @@coolmanu55 Hi mate, mine arrives in a couple of days. It's not the fuel type you should be too concerned about, it's the transmission type. Go diesel, majority of reviews seem to be disappointed with the petrol version with it's DCT (dual-clutch transmission) due to it's clunkiness and prefer the diesel which is semi-auto. Additionally, an ex-mechanic mate of mine advised if given a choice between cars, stay away from cars with DCT for road use if it can be helped.

    hi mate, thanks for the video- - thinking bw GT Petrol or GT-Diesel, I am confused with which one to buy ? Any advise please. one more thing, no point to spend another 12k to get Sorento right ? I mean I don't need a 7 seater. Any points am I missing ?

    • @ProductReviewCars
      @ProductReviewCars  ปีที่แล้ว

      Go GT-Diesel for the AWD. If you don't need 7 seats, the Sorento isn't worth the extra cash.

    Do you think it's better to go diesel or petrol in the 2023 Sportage? In Jamaica 🇯🇲 the petrol doesn't have Turbo until you get to the GT-line but the diesel has it from entry level.

      I liked it! A lot clearer than the base sound system. Car is a little big on the inside, so can sound a little cavernous and a little harder to feel ‘immersed’.

    I've ordered a GT-line. You didn't mention towing capacity. 1900/1650kg Diesel/petrol is good but terrible towball download maximum 100kg. To achieve the desirable 10% download (for safety) you should only tow 950kg. Not good enough Kia. 150kg towball weight should be offered.
