Kia looks better than the Hyundai which has that ugly front end.

They seems like decent vehicles but I don't know what's gamechanging about them. They are a little underpowered, too. 260ft/lb torque is a little light for that size vehicle. Most of the competitors will be at 300ft/lb or more.

Both look GREAT!

Gamechanger from design to value which is why one of them will be SUV Of The Year!

They are just boring run of the mill soccer mom cars. Better than a Chevy traverse? Maybe, but that's not saying much.

Like them or not, expect to see a TON of these on the road, for good reason.

These are the types of vehicles one can expect to see in South Riding. For those of you not from the NOVA area, South Riding is where lives go to die. These 3 row crossovers seem like place holders in between Honda civics and Corvettes.

The good reason being people don't know how to manage money? I won't see any of them in the road, because they look like every other car. You don't notice them. They're boring. Why do you think they are only sold in 3 colors? Black, gray, or white.

Gamechanger on design? The Hyundai is ugly....the Kia looks good, though, but nothing revolutionary.

The value is to be determined since they've never made a vehicle like that before and we'll see what the transaction prices really look like, especially with an underpowered engine in them. Many of their competitors offer more than one engine option, too, and these have less power than both of the competitor models.

These are no more of a gamechanger than the new Blazer or Ford Ranger. They are simply new offerings that these manufacturers have never made before.

Nice vehicles? Sure.....Gamechangers? No.

Sorry you feel that way.
Interest already and sales convey differently.
