The new Kia Sportage or Hyundai Tucson, already familiar from our tests? This is a comparison from parallel imports. The best prices for maintenance: https://autospot.ru/?utm_source=ytb&u... The cars are on the same platform, but this does not mean that they are absolutely identical. We have a Kia Sportage with a basic 2-liter gasoline engine with 150 hp, a 6-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. Such a car can be found for 3 million rubles. Hyundai Tucson, on the contrary, is almost the maximum with a 2.5-liter engine with 190 hp, an 8-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. The price for it is already approaching 4 million. In terms of interior and trunk size, the rivals are almost on par, although the Sportage has a narrow spare wheel in the trunk and the ability to carry a little more stuff. The Tucson has a more practical full-size spare wheel on an alloy wheel. We hung the Tucson on a diagonal hanger and it coped well with closing the trunk. We did not repeat this on the Sportage. It has a front-wheel drive and the risk of ending up in a similar situation is much lower, besides, the car is lighter and it will definitely cope with this task no worse. But the dynamics were surprising. A more powerful Hyundai engine, but complemented by beautiful 18-inch wheels and all-wheel drive, showed exactly the same result when accelerating from zero to 100 km / h as a lighter, but less powerful Sportage. 10.7 s, on the same section of road with the same gasoline. At the same time, according to the factory data, Hyundai should reach the first hundred in 9.8 s, and Kia - in 11.7. Which of these two cars to choose, decide for yourself and be sure to write about your decision in the comments! The host of the video is Igor Sirin, cameraman Evgeny Mikhalkevich.
