I've owned a couple of diesel cars in my time (one being with this same engine, but a Santa Fe) and I loved the torque and economy but in the end, I went back to petrol. Just can't beat the smoothness, response and sound of a petrol engine. For me anyway.
The camera view with them coming towards the camera is genius. It would be cool if they made a sort of performance one to compete with sq5 and c43 etc. Id seriously consoder it.
"Kia Australia offers 10 different variants of the Sorento" Wow And to think that we only have 2 variants here in the Philippines. Do Australians buy all the variants there?
that v6 sounds nice

It does sound good and loves to rev. Very hard to pass up.
Well done on the camera comparo setup looks great

I said exactly the same thing to Brett on another video recently.. Something like the performance of his X3 diesel would be awesome..
The little 2.2 diesel done pretty good,
V6 has a lovely note, but I'm like you - in the country so I'd go for the diesel.
It's a shame they didn't install the v6 engine on the 2024 santa fe 😢
They should drop the V6 in the Sportage pay homage to old V6 Rav4
For .5 second differenc diesel wins over all as its awd lower fuel consumption and range
Wish Hyundai would put a v6 diesel in these cars to compete with the Germans.
Sorry there is no v6 diesel euro7 in Hyundai but only inline6 for genesis rear wheel drive. So it won't happen.
drag race ute:dmax vs hilux (500k vu)
Will do, asap.

V6 fuel consumption is likely brutal with so much weight , probably OK on highway though
