give kias a chance
If I needed a car to drive the absolute NUTS off and trade it straight back to the dealership at 99,999 miles for the next one yes I'd consider a kia/hyundaiLike if I was truly gonna put my life in the hands of Uber/Doordash as my entire household income and needed a car to run the fuck through and chuck it over and over.
>>28701380Interesting plate.
>>28701380what the fuck is that front end design
>>28701380>no awd carnivalNo.
>>28701389>what the fuck is that front end design"The Disney Remake""I RUV BIG GRIRR"
>cak gok
>>28701389butch?
>>28701380Oh wow, a new truck, same size and inefficiency as 100+ other trucks on the market, only shaped slightly different! This will really shake up the market!>inb4 it flops
>>28701738it won't flop!
>>28701382Honestly this.The 100k mile warranty is pretty nice but id never own one after that.
>>28701756they are actually quite reliable now
My Kia Niro is amazing, really comfortable to drive and the cheapest car to own I've ever had. Insurance is cheap, MPG is good, taxes are almost nonexistant due to it being PHEV. My old sedan was just sucking money from money with constant malfunctions whereas this Kia just werks and doesn't complicate my days the slightest.
>>28701757Yes Kia scored top 10 in a recent car brand reliability survey in the UK, mostly due to the reliability of EV3 and Niro PHEV.

>>28701389It looks cool.
>>28701380who the fuck greenlit this abomination? I've never felt ill and uneasy from looking at a vehicle until now. Just...wow.
>>28701813None of what you said makes the car "amazing."
>>28701851That's what makes an amazing car to me. Don't make my life a pain in the ass is all I'm asking for.

>>28701384The automotive sector has a fecal fixation at the momen Anin, get with the times
>>28701380imagine the children this thing could obliterate on the school run
I own a ford Maverick and I wouldn't even look at this thing because the drivetrains will get 25mpg.Same reason I wouldn't ever look at an EcoBoost maverick. If it's gonna be cheap and thrifty it has to be cheap and thrifty, not a fuckin turbo
>>28703669maverick is a ford escape in drag with the same hateful cheap interior
>>28703694Yeah but it's $1k cheaper than a Honda civic and is a similar vehicle just in a different body. Love the plastic that I never touch, put in tuxmats and custom fit vinyl seat covers and a $10 wireless phone charger and suddenly it's more luxurious than anything I've been in. Plastic gets muddy from winter I just wipe that shit and move on, no fabrics to treat or wash or vacuum. Why would I buy a civic body over a mini truck body?
>>28703575Stop, I can only get so wet. Are they black?
>>28701831>>28701834>made in the last 5 yearsso an absolutely retarded survey of poor pakis and chavs?
>>28701380>looks retarded>monocoque chassis>based on a FWD crossover>turbo hybrid engine
>>28701389It's an fj40/m175 hybrid. Looks great desu.
>>28704008they've made an extremely forced attempt to make the car seem as australian as possible and just for the cultural appropriation these gooks tried pulling on us I want to obliterate every one of these disabled freak shitpiles.
>>28704031didn't meant to reply to you there but whatever. I hate this fucking thing.
>>28703575>imagine the children this thing could obliterate on the school runIt's a kia. When it taps the curb to get on the sidewalk, the front suspension will blow out and wipe out the front quarter panel.That's the reason so many kias have mismatched front quarter panel. It's not some new trend with customization, it's just what happens in a kia. On the bright side, you never have curb rash. On the down side it's because you had to buy a new rim when you replaced it and everything around it.
>>287037145 years of ownership is a pretty good metric.
>>28703702>Yeah but it's $1k cheaper than a Honda civicbecause the quality of construction/interior is much poorer>>28704008hmm you are thinking of the santa cruzI think the Tasman will be built on a dedicated ladder frame
>>28703704white
>>28701738>InefficiencyIt has the same 2.2L diesel as every other big Kia. It does a claimed 7.4 L/100km.
>>28701389oh don't worry anon, it looks even worse in reality.
>>28701380Holy FUCK that is hideously ugly
