The KIA Sportage SUV, sold in our country in the fourth generation, is one of the most popular SUV representatives of the Russian market. Domestic motorists love the crossover for its stylish and memorable appearance, modern capabilities and the highest comfort. As you know, on the territory of Russia, the SUV is offered with atmospheric engines with a volume of 2 and 2, 4 liters. The first option works with a return of 150 horsepower, and the second one - 184 hp. In the basic version, the cross is equipped with a 6-speed manual gearbox, and in more expensive versions it is equipped with an automatic transmission.

Experts of the Russian car market have compiled a list of alternative offers that are available on the market of our country and are not inferior in their characteristics to the Korean SUV. The third was the popular SUV from Japan - the Nissan Qashqai. In this case, we are talking about a version with a 2-liter naturally aspirated engine producing 144 horsepower. For him, the developer offers a manual transmission or a variator.

The second place belongs to another representative of the Japanese car industry - the Mitsubishi ASX crossover. As a recommendation, experts suggest choosing a model with a 2-liter "aspirated", generating power of about 150 "horses". It works in conjunction with a variator, as well as an all-wheel drive system.

Well, the best alternative to the KIA model is the previous generation Hyundai Tucson SUV. In principle, this cross is a revised copy of the Sportage, but differs due to a different line of power units. The main advantage of the Hyundai Tucson is the presence of a 2-liter diesel engine.
