The model
Read full Kia Sportage reviewThe Kia Sportage offers a generous amount of space front and rear, plus a large boot and one of the best interiors in its class. In our favourite 3 trim you get loads of equipment, and entry-level trims make a lot of sense compared with pricier rivals. The Hyundai Tucson is competitively priced, but the Sportage is a more polished alternative.
The trim
See full equipmentThe entry-level Sportage comes well equipped with alloy wheels, LED headlamps, cruise control, climate control and an electronic parking brake. The 8in touchscreen is the smallest on offer but it still comes with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Bluetooth connectivity. There's also a rear-view camera, as well as front and rear parking sensors.
The engine
See full engine specsThe entry-level 1.6-litre petrol engine offers 148bhp and sprints from 0-62mph in 9.9sec. It should offer sufficient performance for pretty much any situation, even if it may need working hard to get up to speed.
