Change versionAI overview
Choosing between the Hyundai Tucson and the Kia Sportage comes down to two closely related family SUVs that take distinct design routes while sharing plenty of practical ground. Both models offer generous cabin space and are easy to live with day to day, though neither will thrill you if you are looking for driving fun on a twisty road. The Hyundai Tucson brings striking styling and an interior that feels high quality and plush where it counts, backed by a huge boot. The Kia Sportage counters with a well-made cabin and a practical layout that makes light work of carrying passengers and luggage alike. Both cars can feel a bit firm over rough surfaces around town, so you will want to weigh up which exterior styling and cabin layout appeals to you more.
