It is very rare to see a car close to an entry level specced so well...I won't mind not getting a top of the range in this case. Thanks sir for such a detailed review, with nice POV drive...🙏🙏🙏
Demtumza my brother, forever grateful 🙏🏽🙂🙂. Thank you so much. That's my point, materials used as well, for a lower spec vehicle, it's so good and drives so well that you feel like you are in a much more expensive car. Which is why I am okay with the price, they did not compromise on quality.
Must agree with you Sebuwa, this car is very well styled and looks fantastic on the road. Thanks for this very informative video. Keep up the great work. Love your videos
Thanks a lot Oscar. Much appreciated as usual.🙂. I am honestly not seeing it being overpriced. Maybe it's the feeling you get when in it! Some German cars don't give the same feeling even🤔
Thanks a lot Ndumiso, always appreciate the presence. True, one part that I was okay with but I'd rather have the rotary dial that's in the GT line than this one. 🤣🤣
Tshepo my brother. Thanks a lot for the love, it's always appreciated. Eish in there it's fight after fight, but I love people's opinions, they teach as well🤣
Thanks a lot Pfanani, much appreciated. Yoh, that car is out of fleet from Kia, they used to have it last year. Mostly when I do reviews like this is because I had the car for long by myself, dealerships don't give out cars like these so it's difficult to do a review like this with cars from there.🙏🏽
Thank you so much Thabiso. 🙂! Hehe, those do actually offer great value for money ey! I see why one would be skeptical of getting this over them. At this price point they offer much more features
I've heard of problems appearing with the GPF. Regenerating is necessary especially if it is a DCT and if it is driven mostly on short trips. And regenerating is not simple to do.
🙏my Mann.. Ag KIA has come a longgggggg way now and they have really improved their offering it I just feel it’s not my kind of car. I love ruggard suv which is able to go do serious off-road. This is a premium on road vehicle 😮 With the pricing the cherry and haval brands are knocking on the door🙆🏿♂️
Ozem my brother, great to hear from you 🙂! Honestly Kia has moved past budget car status on some models, their attention to detail is top notch, you can feel the premiumness in there. I hear you, you are an adventure kind of a guy so you would need something hardcore🤣. I honestly felt it should be compared with the Tucson, CX5, X1 and so on as it will be difficult to take it to Chinese SUVs, those are outliers and should just have own market.👌🏾🤣
Sure Kabelo, Thanks a lot. 🙂 As I said the trick is availability of fleet. At Kia they literally only have the Sportage for media, not even the Sorento is there. Dealerships need you to come on a specific day during the week to get a longer test which creates some difficulties as the Kia I work with is on the other side of Pretoria. I haven't closed that door though, don't worry!🙏🏽
I can't argue with that honestly Sihle. It's not easy to look away from the H6, with a R20K difference and spec level offered in the H6, it might have an edge when thinking budget and engine performance. I don't agree that this is overpriced though, especially based on dynamics of importing from China and other parts of the world. China will almost always make sense on budget due to their ability to create quality for less these days. Also material to material, this is superior. That feeling can draw you towards it!
@@sebuwamyou can’t honestly compare haval h6 to Kia sportage . The Kia is not great quality for the premium price you pay . Kia have now begun ripping off their customers .
I think I need to create a video focusing on why a 1.6 with a turbo is not a problem at all. By the way the germans sell 1.4L/1.5L engine for around 800K. Not even as powerful as this one. Refined yes, but not as powerful.
Thanks a lot Siyabonga🙂. I hear you on the Chinese brands and mostly they offer much more value for money. I am with this on the quality, yes they are also quality but this is a step above them, I am scared some german brands don't even return the same feeling.🤔

Woooow the quality of pictures is out of this world, well done
Thank you so much my sister, much appreciated🙂🙏!
I agree this car feels amazing, I miss it so much
It is so premium this one. Honestly, not even GLA/X1 can turn me away from this car

Appreciate this a lot. Thank you so much. 🙂🫶🏾 Overall stunning, I like the interior more.👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Finally! Even though its overpriced by you can't take away the fact that its a beauty. Thanks Sebuwa.

Yhaaa I concur with you Oscar
Always enjoy pov drives with sebuwa, Eyi nice car but that gear lever reminds me of 2012 Hondas 😂 yesus
Thanks a lot Ndumiso, always appreciate the presence. True, one part that I was okay with but I'd rather have the rotary dial that's in the GT line than this one. 🤣🤣
No arguments there, it looks 👌🏽, a real head turner
Yoh Blessing, I am telling you. I had a number of engagements on the streets because people genuinely found it lovely to look at.👌🏾
Bro guidance made me buy a kia Saltos, The car has been good to me. and I got the chance to drive this sportage, yeses its good.
I really love your POV reviews,they sound like a good radio show 👌. Somehow you sound like bra Dave Mashabela
Underrated channel
😭🙂🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾! Appreciate the warm feedback. Thank you so much Rizaan. Will keep pushing🙏🏾
Loving your videos Sebuwa, the arial shots are a nice touch. Keep it up....I already made my comment on tiktok, so I'm keeping my mouth shut

I enjoy your content sir thank you for doing this🔥🔥💯
That means a lot Luthando. Much appreciated. 🥲🙏🏽🙏🏽
nice review sir, can you also please do review of kia pegas.

I’m First👍🏼🥺I told you I’ll let you cook😂🔥nice video
🤣🤣🤣🤣... Yeah, it was a tough one to finish but it's here. Finished working on it around 01:30am. Glad you made it though. Thank you so much🙂🙏🏽
Thanks for the wonderful review and the inclusion of chapters wow 👌 👏
The car doesn't do for me as I am possessed with H6 and Tigg8Pro.
Thank you so much Thabiso. 🙂! Hehe, those do actually offer great value for money ey! I see why one would be skeptical of getting this over them. At this price point they offer much more features
Great content as always
Dankie Misho. Much appreciated🙂🙌🏾🙏🏾
I've heard of problems appearing with the GPF. Regenerating is necessary especially if it is a DCT and if it is driven mostly on short trips. And regenerating is not simple to do.
Mmmh! So it's better to do some long distance trips?🤔
@@sebuwam who knows. This behaviour is present 2-3 years already. Strange why Kia hasnt delth with it
Very insightful, thank you.
Glad to hear I could help🙏🏾🙂

Another Great one! Still awaiting the Picanto x-line though

@@sebuwam Thank You 🙏
@@kabeloteddymorris7760 🙏🏽
@@sebuwam I’m actually considering it but I’d really like your perspective on it
great car but would still get a haval h6 superlux and keep the change you get more features for less i would say kia overpriced this car a bit

Even better if you're not concerned about boot space you can get the Haval Jolion super Luxury S for quite a bit less and pocket the extra cash.
Ahh Morena your reviews are proper
😍😍😍🫶🏾. Much appreciated🙏🏽
My favorite 😍

1.6?... R600k? mhmm. nice review! well done Kia

@@sebuwam That would be an interesting video. Maybe the future of engines in general. hybrid and electric as well.
Nice review but I still think it's too overpriced. At this point I still side with the Chinese brands with more features even.
Thanks a lot Siyabonga🙂. I hear you on the Chinese brands and mostly they offer much more value for money. I am with this on the quality, yes they are also quality but this is a step above them, I am scared some german brands don't even return the same feeling.🤔
@@sebuwamif h6 cost this much it would be amazing , hard to justify this price for just a kia
Please review the Kia picanto xline 🙏🏾
What’s the fuel consumption on 180 ps engine 2 wheel drive
I was averaging around 10L/100km but heard others saying between 8L/100km and 10L/100km
built quality, driving dynamics and reliability of this is better than any Chinese cars no offense .
Honestly, in many ways this is better than even some Germans🤔
Too expensive and how big is that boot again?
I am accepting the price honestly. Responded on the other comment, 560L🙂
Nice design by the South koreans, gloss plastic on window switches won't age well. Otherwise, I like the white exterior it turns the Kia haters
Great design indeed. Gloss is always questionable eish! Especially with age, it needs serious care. This is overall just a good-looking car👌🏾👌🏾
Ooh well😳😳😳😬😬
👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
