I bought a few weeks ago in NZ a Kia Sportage EX 2.0 diesel turbo , I have done now a few thousand Km's (being an ex Diesel automotive engineer ) I must say this Kia beauty is leaving the Toyota's RAV 4 diesels for dead , I had 2 of these a 2012 and a 2014 model diesel ..... the Kia Sportage 2016/17 model engines/auto gearbox much better then the RAV 4 , finishings , leather etc brilliant .....keep an eye out for these Koreans !!!

I like kia sportage..very smooth, very silent, powerful and strong , reliable and very safe, strong brakes and good wheels, comfortable and elagant, but the 2016 model headlights is a little bit not good i like sharper one on the previous model. But overall design is excellent and features! Just revert to sharp design and leds..

Sportage (purchased July 2016) Diesel AWD. Noisy and has no pickup when needed in heavy traffic. It honestly takes a second to realise that you've put the foot down, then suddenly lurches forward. Never again. Had a Forester for 12 years. Brilliant car. Never a problem. Should have bought the latest model.

I was between the Tucson and Sportage. Both were very good, the sportage was a little less money and a little better looking for me. I know that the Sportage is more polarizing, but it turns out that I liked it. I might have hated it, but it's just personal preferences.

I test drove the 2016 petrol versions of the Tucson and Sportage a couple of weeks ago.Trust me: the KIA looks much better 'in the flesh' than video or stills convey.
