Hey Mat, I'm certain you are THE BEST car reviewer on YT by a country mile. The mix of solid information and cheeky humour is hard to beat. Keep it going Mat.

[@Ecoenergy]

The reason the rear middle seat belt is crossing the side passengers seat is because you have mixed up the buckles, the end one plugs in on your right (L.H. S. in video) and the other buckle is pulled across your lap to the left hand side. The end one can be left permanently plugged in, this then stops passengers not familiar with the belt mixing it up like you have done. My Wife's grand scenic has the same system, although the magnet holding the belt in the roof when fully retracted is more central.

Great review. I have the 1.6 Tucson and its pulling power at low revs is non existent. Not so bad when rev'ed passed 2,500 revs. Although its very smooth and quiet even at 60-70.

For economy cars, i think it is better if you call hard plastic as 'hard plastic' instead of 'cheap plastic'!

It might be hard quality plastic, but cheap is cheap whether soft or hard :D

@A real bisexual petrol-head Yes, american cars started using them, so this is from where the design got more popular.

Volvo has vertical vents, even Porsche also had vertical vents once upon a time, does that mean they're are cheap cars?

My brother in law bought this car/suv the base model which has almost everything modern cars need for 15990 euros brand new, it is amazing how much of a car you get for that amount of money, there is no car coming close for that value for money

Own a 2.4 petrol AWD Sportline Sportage. Travelled 18000kms and not a problem. Love driving the car on the highway or around town. Wife previously owned a KIA Rio 1.6 GDI. TRAVELLED 100,000kms without a glitch. Great liitle car. Plenty of go and surprisingly able long distance car.

[@damonlee226]

Its an affordable compact utility...and does have some small things that need to be resolved...ie. the seat belt in back roof...but the plastics hard or soft and button bonanza...but its the best looking and most reliable and long term quality vehicle. KIA does respond quickly to small issues. But for the price and quality it is awesome.

[@harithalshamaa533]

Very good review as always Car WOW. For the rear signal design its very silly place that they continue it from previous years., the behind driver focus on upper stop light and there is missing indicator down ! (🅽🅸🆂🆂🅰🅽 🆂🅴🆁🅴🅽🅴 used to have it , but smart people there relocate it up palce)

[@loukasantoniou8054]

Its the only compact suv with a dif lock though, apart from the evoque which is going to break down after 1 hour of driving. That though its a pretty good offroader for this class

[@Dmk2227]

I have the 1.6 diesel gt-line s and agree with the 5 points you mentioned but apart from that can't fault it and the kit you get for your money is excellent, excellent review though

I'm not big on driving and having three kids, we're planning our first European road trip within the next 14 months, and I'm looking for something reliable, spacious cheap to run plus most importantly getting us from the UK through into France into Spain and then Portugal, and back again!? Lol Currently we have a Honda civic 8th gen personally I love it but just not ideal for us and the car is hitting 200k miles now. Budget isn't big, So far I've been looking at this kia sportage as a friend of mine has one and she's been to Italy and back in hers along with her two kids. And I was recommended hyundai Tuscon 1.7TD 2015...?

Good review overall. Thank you! _ I'm still left wondering about road handling and speed (how long does it take to reach 60 MPH?_ How does the transission feel?, did it skip at all? these are all questions I still have about this vehicle and will have to watch other videso to find out. _ What about your final recommedatio? do you like it better than the Tucson? _ again, these are all questions that still remain.

These are great cars. I had a base model N/A FWD & it was fine. Had all the kit I needed, enough power for the application, was supremely comfortable in my opinion & the best warranty in the business. I'm a car enthusiast like many journos (drive a RWD sports car now) but sometimes I think Journo's mis-manage their expectations from a general consumer point of view. The steering in the Sportage is FINE, the average person will be more than happy with the steering.

[@HoofHearted2DAY]

@@brankovukovic3658 I had the naturally aspirated 2.0 petrol. It's anemic if you have a leadfoot but it was fine otherwise - had enough punch when you needed it & surged way more torque than my current GT86, which is woeful at pickup. I did find the petrol Kia thirsty around the city (with my leadfoot driving) so a diesel would definitely solve that, but on the freeway it was fine & dropped consumption significantly with cruise control. It is a bloated SUV after all.

[@sparkfishes]

I have just traded in my 2016 Peugeot 3008 Alure for a Kia Sportage 2 . Both WERE 1.6 Automatic diesels. The acceleration from a stop is much better on the Kia , one alway had to take care pulling away from a junction in the 3008. The fuel consumption is much better in the Kia. The door pockets were much bigger in the 3008and I would say they are por in the Kia , hardly big enough for sunglasses and a packet of tissues. Generally, the 3008had more useful storage space . I really miss the heads up displa of the 3008 , I believe Peugeot have dropped in on the 2020 models anyway. I disagree strongly with the comment about the Kia's steering compared to the 3008 . It was immediately noticeable the !ia is much , much lighter to steer and the pick up speed was much better. My wife found the seats much more comfortable in the Kia. I don't like the speed and cruise control adjusters on the Kia while it seems better on the steering wheel rather than a stalk in practice Ifound then difficult, temperamental to use and locate while driving ...the Peugeot was a much better position and far more positive. I found the Kia much easier to drive but , unexplainable, not so good on visibility. It as a spare wheel instead of a repair pump thingy but that does not seem to reduce the load space. There are a few better driving / driver aids in the Kia such as better climate control ,hill start and down hill retardation, heated seats .......I am not sure about Stop Start I don't think it has worked yet . Having said that the 3008 and my previous Qashai rarely worked after 12 months . The spec on the Kia says it has no front parking sensors ...which seems ludicrous... the rear view camera assist is better than the 3008 . So, overall the Kia is better, but I do miss some of the features the 3008 had or were better .
