When you are looking for a practical family car, both the Jaecoo E5 and the Kia Sportage offer plenty of space, solid build quality and sensible layouts without breaking the bank. The Jaecoo E5 takes the electric route with a smooth motor and good range, while the Kia Sportage sticks to traditional petrol power with a manual gearbox. Both models bring generous standard kit and comfortable cabins to the table, though neither is particularly thrilling to drive on a twisty road.
