Do you agree with the verdict? Let us know in the comments below 👇
It will be great if you can compare both vehicle’s driving assistance technologies like adaptive cruise control system and off road capabilities as Toyota kluger hybrid comes as a AWD system. Even though most of the new vehicles comes with all new safety technologies as standard on paper , the quality of performance of these technologies are different in every brands in real world.
Reliability , robust and resale value , you cant beat the Toyota .
anyone could have thought a family SUV is that expensive these days and has to be ordered half year in advance?
Please compare pallisade, kluger and cx9 ad they are bigger 7 seaters , hence more expensive.
Sorento and Santa fe should be pitched against cx8.
Spot on my friend
Yes. The styling of the Kluger is still stuck in 1990s.
Lol, true.
It is seriously ugly
I’m not sure about that whale shark front end… just looks like it wants to suck up krill
The interior of both cars are 👌👌
But what about the interior presentation?
Wait, the kia relatively match the toyota's hybrid fuel?? So.. it sort of defeat the purpose of having hybrid in the first place no..?
Diesel vehicles have issues with particulate filter in city driving. It blocks and causes issues. Hybrid are a lot more fuel efficient in the city too
@@aminawad5216 right, wait till the battery in hybrid need replacing. Lets compare the price on that. They wont try to fix the battery btw.
@@ardyaprilianta9732 there is a long
Warranty on the battery, I believe 10yrs. By that stage the engine will need replacing on the Kia. So many engines from Hyundai and Kia that have needed replacement after 120000kms.
@@aminawad5216 Lol. My friends Hyundai has over 500,000 miles (not km!) without issues. I have one with over 150,000 miles without issues. Stop being a total Toyota fan girl. Btw, I’ve owned Honda’s and Toyota’s. I’m not brand loyal. I get the best bang for the buck. Right now, Hyundai/Kia are killing it. There’s a reason why they’re so popular. I never would have bought a Hyundai/Kia 15 years ago, but now the Japanese are playing catch up to the Koreans in innovative design, technology, warranty, and bang for the buck.
@@JohnLee-db9zt I agree that The Koreans are building better cars these days with a lot more innovation and technology than the Japanese. However we had a 2016 Santa Fe diesel which the engine was replaced under warranty at 120k kms. I know two other people with IX30s that both needed engines replaced around similar kms to mine. I’m not a Toyota fan boy. If anything I used to like Honda in the past but they aren’t what they used to be. I actually own an AMG Merc so definitely not a fan boy as you say.
How were you able to get a GX with top racks?
With the kia you'll need that warranty 100 percent !!!!!!!
Is that Mineral or Gravity blue?
98 octane ULP is 27 cents per litre more expensive than Diesel. The RAV4 only needs 91
Toyota have a strange habit of kicking own goals .... like you say Rav 4 91ron but Camry with the same motor mandates 95ron.
@@tonys8243 to add to that, the same car named highlander in usa and canada use regular unleaded.
Khan ... I think it maybe down to how the engines are tuned for different parts of the world... here in Australia being a small market we might share engines in some models made for Europe where I believe they have no 91ron rating fuel having only what we consider as premium 95ron.
I see a lot of car reviewers and other self appointed so called car experts poo poo the lower octane fuel even where the maker mandates it's use ... but if you look at the actual tested data using higher more expensive fuel does nothing except empty your wallet and pump up Government tax revenue and of course the fuel company profits ⛽️
My dealerships recommended 98 octane in my rav4 2022 hybrid
...you'll be happy with either.... :-)
Kluger has aesthetics only Freddie Kruger could love.
Toyota is a a more solid car here. Period
Sorento's biggest weakness is the poor ANCAP crash protection rating, worse than most if not all the competitors. Lucky to score 5 star safety rating probably due to all the active "safety tech". Of course having all the active safety tech does not stop an accident happening, at that point you and your passengers have increased risk of being injured/killed compared to the opposition, by buying the Sorento. I note all reviews ignore this aspect of safety and are only interested in reporting box ticking; as demonstrated in this video.
www.ancap.com.au/safety-ratings/kia?is_current_model=true&page=1&field=rating_year&direction=desc&vehicle_type=large_suv
Wtf you talking about? There’s not much of difference for driver and passenger crash safety, 90% vs 82%, and even less of a difference for child occupant, 88% vs 85%. Toyota is only slightly better. How can this be poor crash protection? By your logic, Toyota is not much better than poor. 🙄🤦🏽♀️
Sorento scored 5 star rare in euro ncap which is the toughest one
@@ncck1211 and it received one of the worst adult occupant protection ratings in the class, indeed, one of the worst in class across all the modern/updated crash test regimes; ANCAP, and the various NCAPs. The American NHTSA gave the Sorento 4 stars overall and 4 stars for frontal crash protection. Disappointing for a new model.
Now Kia is no 1 beautiful design but New Kluger front grill design like Rubis like sad face 😕😕
👍❤👍Thanks mate.....
That easy I’ll take the one on the right every day of the week, that will still be going when the other one is dead and buried
Wanted a Kia - but no vehicles available till mid 2022. At least you can actually get the Kluger ! You also forgot to mention the fuel consumption in light of the fact that the Kluger has the hybrid. Will use a lot less fuel - so reducing the operating cost significantly.
Because Kluger is a klunker, lol. No one wants a fugly SUV still stuck with the 90’s design. Btw, in real word, the Kluger only slightly better in fuel economy as the reviewer indicated.
At least a year wait for the Sorrento
Kruger out side front looks very silly
These reviews are all the same, very generic & don’t sell me any interest in considering to buy one. Why not do a 0-100 test or breaking demonstration etc.
There are some better independent review channels out there doing reviews with a bit more gusto.
Duh buyers in this segment don't care about 0-100 test.
Lol, what a numb nut. I’m sure the parents will be taking these SUVs to the drag strip on weekends with their kids.
The only thing the kluger trumps is reliability…. Other wise KIA kills it. Wish they didn’t install DCT , it has problems, which is such a shame the rest of the car is brilliant
The previous Toyota looked way better, this model is ugly
The Kluger is so outdated and one of the most ugliest Suvs out there they really need to scrap that model and come up with something better
One will hold its Resell value and it’s not the Kia
Got anything to back that up? So far, Kia holds value as good as Toyota
When the top spec is 15 grand more for a woefully inferior car, who gives a shit about the extra 5k you will get on resale?
lol, that’s the only excuse Toyota fan girls can come up with. That was true 10 years ago maybe.
How hard you guys are trying to promote Kia lol Car of the year! Best car of the world hahahaha.
Have you ever driven a kia recently? Then you would change your opinion.
@@raghavshankara5601 As far as I remember and can go back they were winner of soemthing every year! I'm not saying these are bad cars just don't like the marketing behind these reviewes! That's all
@@arnkbb4656 So if they picked Toyota over Kia, then there would be no marketing? Your logic is flawless, lol.
@@JohnLee-db9zt Nope only if they just stop making Kia and HY the winners of everyhting every year lol

Thanks!
I was first once and I didn't need drugs for a month, enjoy your status.
