The 2.0L Qashqais were significantly cheaper than the 1.3l Qashqais. I'm sure the MVT difference was quite substantial between those two engine sizes and despite any new model inflation profit was eating up the savings consumers should have gotten.

Massy knows what they doing when they setting price.

They really do. But I see the facelift Qashqai on its way as well curious to see if the bring it with the E power setup this time around and what cost.

Checked out the Santa Fe. It’s nice in the front the back is ugly.
Interior is great. Very roomy. But for a [emoji[emoji6][emoji6]] SUV it lacks blind spot detection, LKA and Adaptive Cruise Control. I’ve never used these features in Trinidad - so I’m not sure if they are useful.
Has anyone used these features?

I really like LKA and adaptive cruise control. Would not want to live without them anymore. Your feet can rest a bit while in traffic. On the Ranger it's not perfect so you still need to pay attention because in some situations it will accelerate when there's clearly not much room and also take too long to slow down. Much of that is down to the distance I have it set from the car in front. It's at the closest setting because any further and drivers will keep cutting in.
Lane keep assist is good as well but you need to touch the wheel every few seconds. I suggest you try a vehicle with adaptive cruise control. I think it's a must have if you do a lot of highway driving

Apparently the Mazda CX60 would be coming to our shores pretty soon no information on pricing as yet but anything under 600k should be good given the size and quality of the vehicle.

It has to be. The 3.3s would cost a tidy sum to import.

2.5L basically means no tax exemptions considering that it's a hybrid.

Actually, hybrid tax exemptions are only for 1500cc and lower.

Porsche launched the new Macan last night at Hyatt. New Macan is an EV, they had the Macan 4 and Macan Turbo at the launch. Loving the new look though.
