RAV4 vs Tucson vs Sportage 2020 comparison review

The midsize SUV segment is a busy place. There are dozens of options to choose from, but we've assembled three of the most important players.
Those models are the all-new Toyota RAV4 GLX, which is up against the Hyundai Tucson Active X and Kia Sportage SX Plus. All are petrol-powered, front-wheel drive, and automatic.
Which is the best of the bunch?

It does seem strange that all their reviews of Toyota comes out top. I note that they emphasis their plus points and de-emphasise their negatives compared to other cars they compare them with. Not long ago they did a review of a Prado, claiming it is the best in class. I drive a current model Prado every day as my work vehicle and it is no where near as comfortable, refined in steering, handling and ride comfort on road as my son's 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee despite being no better off road and it drinks more diesel for far less power - yet they claim 'best in class'. I certainly don't trust their biased reviews.

Mazda CX-5 fully loaded Turbo has lag and then it jumps forward harshly when the throttle finally engages and is slow accelerating compared to how powerful it claims to be, but maybe the one I test drove had regular 87 octane instead of premium 93 octane gas, but even still the ventilated seats were loud and didn't work as well as the much quieter kia ventilated seats and the Mazda Bose audio system is not as good as the Kia Harmon Kardon audio system!

I looked at all of these (the New Zealand specs) and ruled out the Hyundai on price, and the RAV4 on looks and the CVT. But while looking at the Sportage, also checked out the Niro hybrid and was surprised that it felt as roomy as the Sportage (cargo room is slightly smaller). So ended up buying the Niro, which has more equipment as standard (smart cruise control, lane keeping etc.) and it's returning 4.5L/100km. Paid NZ$37,000 on road.

Rav4 is most impressive and looking beautiful

[@riaanbotha2366]

Just trade in my Tucson 2.0 CRDI Elite for the RAV 4 2.5 AWD VX. Both top of the range models in SA. What I miss from the Tucson is the torque of the diesel engin and fuel consumption. What I don't miss about the Tucson is the noise of the diesel engin at low speeds and the smoke that you could see in your mirror on acceleration. The panoramic roof also had a nasty rattle and the six speed automatic gearbox in the 2017 model is not refined. What I love about the Rav 4 is the extra room in the boot when camping and the feeling you get when get in behind the steering wheel. It's soft touch material and in my opinion the person that have designed the gear knob did a great job. For me the Tucson interior felt cheap. The Toyota do feel a bit bigger on the inside as well. The kids enjoy the USB fast chargers at the back of the Toyota which is not equipped in the Tucson. The Toyota 2.5 engin is a bit noisy on hard acceleration, but is quite for normal driving. There are two other aspects that I have taken into consideration when I have decided to change. 1: The service that I get from my local dealers, and 2: The brand with the perceived best retail value. I have battled with the Hyundai dealers from day one and the technical support in our area is pathetic. In South Africa, Toyota outsell Hyundai probably 3:1 (might even be more) , Kia is not even in the picture and the day you want to sell your vehicle it really shows. Some gerages don't even want to look at your Tucson. Toyota dealerships are everywhere and parts not an issue. For me it's an important factor.

The RAV4 will be more expensive but it is probably more reliable. The other two will be less expensive and the dealerships will probably be more flexible with the price. If price is important then go with one of the Korean brands. If quality is more important than go with the RAV4. Oh and the white vehicle usually receives the worst rating.

Quality wise, the Toyota doesn’t come close to the Kia at all, by that I’m talking interior, never been a fan of Kia until I sat in one... must admit for its price not Honda or Toyota can match them in gadgets and interior quality.

No doubt, RAV4 got all the bells and whistles and also nails it with it's new look, but has a long waiting list to get your hands on. In that case can Sportage be the pick off the list? How about a comparison between Sportage and Qasqai, features and value for money?

[@koreymayo8884]

The RAV4 has lots of body roll and sloppy handling, which is why it failed the moose test! The only reason to buy the RAV4 is for the hybrid version for better fuel economy, but otherwise the Sportage is the clear winner!
