Compare the Volkswagen T-Roc vs Kia Sportage
AI generated from our expert reviews
Up front, both the Volkswagen T-Roc and Kia Sportage provide plenty of seat adjustment for drivers of all sizes, and both leave good space in the back for tall passengers sitting behind tall front occupants. When fitting child seats, the T-Roc gives you easy-to-access outer rear ISOFIX points, whereas the Sportage's rear anchor points are buried deep. The Sportage is more accommodating for luggage, offering a bigger boot than the T-Roc. Once up to cruising speed on the motorway, both cars quieten down, keeping wind and road noise well at bay.
