Driver Insights
From local ads and forum discussions, Sorento 2012 is popular among families who need a comfortable long-distance diesel 7-seater but don’t want to pay Land Cruiser money. It sits against Mitsubishi Outlander, Hyundai Santa Fe and older Toyota Kluger/Highlander–type SUVs.
Local owners describe the 2016 BMW X1 as a compact SUV that feels more like a sporty car than a traditional SUV. Steering is sharp, body control is excellent, and the car feels confident at high speeds, making it enjoyable on expressways and open roads.
