Change versionAI overview
The Chery Tiggo 7 and the Kia Sportage are both practical, spacious family SUVs that offer generous equipment lists and comfortable motorway cruising. While the Chery Tiggo 7 provides a wealth of standard kit and a roomy, well-built interior for its price, it falls short with a thirsty petrol engine and uninspiring handling on twisty roads. On the other hand, the Kia Sportage is a sensible and striking all-rounder featuring fantastic build quality and a larger boot, though its ride can feel a bit jiggly over bumps around town and it is not particularly fun to drive.
