Change versionAI overview
The Chery Tiggo 8 and the Kia Sportage both offer plenty of space for family life, but they take different approaches to practicality and style. The Tiggo 8 stands out with its ability to seat seven and its impressive value for money, though its entry-level engine leaves a lot to be desired. On the other hand, the Sportage is a sensible and striking all-rounder with a well-made cabin and a generous boot for five passengers, though it is not particularly fun to drive.
