Hyundai Santa Fe 2015 or Kia Sorento 2011-12

[SDV]

Thinking of buying a Hyundai Santa Fe 2015 or a Kia Sorento 2011-2012 model based on my budget.What type of vehicle is better ? Is it the Hyundai Santa fe or Kia Sorento in terms of fuel consumption,options and ability to resell (in Sri Lanka in d future)?

These are sister cars but Brand new a similar spec Santa fe is more expensive than the Sorento. And hyundai owns Kia. So the build quality of the santafe is much above the sorento.

And there is a model change (not a facelift) during that years.

So theres no sense buying the 2012 sorento over the Santafe. Actually its better to have a similar spec 2012 santafe than a 2012 sorento

I would advise you to go for the 2015 Santafe. Usually koreans are not well built as japanese vehicles (eventhough they use nice materials and interesting designs, fit and finish is not upto that of japs). So getting a newer one would be much safer and would likely to last longer since they have been improving their quality recently.
