AI generated from our expert reviews

Up front, both cars make it easy to get comfortable thanks to plenty of seat adjustability. For practicality, the Kia Sportage pulls ahead with a larger boot and the capacity to tow heavier loads. Across the back row, the Sportage is plenty wide enough to seat three people, even if foot space is compromised by a chunky transmission hump, whereas carrying three abreast in the Toyota C-HR+ is a squeeze. When driving around town, however, the C-HR+ excels thanks to comfortable suspension that irons out potholes and speedbumps, while you feel bumps more at lower speeds in the Sportage.
