What is better than Tiguan or the Sportage of the first generation. Different classmates: more profitable to buy - Kia Sportage or Volkswagen Tiguan

To date, there are 2 cars in our car market of family SUVs - Kia Sportyj. and Volkswagen Tiguan. Car from Germany for last year -Fall leads in the list of 1st points of sale of this class in Russia.

Compete with the German car mainly produced in Asia. In this review, I will give an example of 2 wonderful kia cars Sportage and Volkswagen Tiguan, and you yourself choose yourself a car you like and get.

External data from both cars are worthy, and if so, then among them there is no winner, since every motorist chooses the car at its discretion. The car from Korea looks more elegant and dynamically - this is noticeable in a slight bevered bumper, a powerful radiator grille and individual lighting. The German has universal data, as it shows that it applies to a family car.

Even, the Korean car is distinguished by an unusual gloss of lanterns, combined with a straight line of the windowsill and other characteristic features Exterior. But the German car is also impressive with its external data and available characteristics.

Interior Kia Sportage and Volkswagen Tiguan

In the inner decoration of rivals of differences, as such, almost no observed and with everything there is a high-quality finish. In the same way, the equipment includes: air conditioning system, frontal PB. In the machines there is quite understandable management of all options that is carried out using the display. Landing in cars is comfortable, ergonomics at height. Multimedia and climatic system occurs quite understandable.

There is enough space on the back of the space, riding will provide relative convenience. In Volkswagen, the back there is a small plus - this is a folding tables. There is no such thing in Kia, but still it is convenient in the rear row, only the average passenger will be a little inconvenient. The advantage of the Korean is considered to heighten the rear row.

Final conclusion

What is the result in the termination? In general, these cars are good for themselves, there are advantages and in the other model. Equipment, the functionality of rivals admires the new ideas of the layout. Specifications from both rivals are simply excellent. Both cars showed themselves from the best side, and the choice is yours.

The German and the Korean crossover differ very seriously, and the differences begin with the approach to the technique. The "German" expected comes with "small cards": the basic motor has 1.4 liters of volume and turbine, as well as two power options - 125 and 150 forces. The increase in the volume is accompanied by an increase in power, but without a turbine it does not do anyway: neither at a gasoline double-liter motor at 180 or 220 forces, neither at a two-liter diesel engine for 150 "horses". As an equally progressive situation and gearboxes: if you do not want to deal with a six-speed mechanic, get one of two "wet" dsg - or a six-speed DQ250 with a "small" motor 1.4, or seven-step DQ500 with two-liter units.

1 / 2

2 / 2

Sportage is all otherwise: here the ball rules a two-liter ball atmospheric motor On Pragmatic Korean 150 hp Crossovers with front-wheel drive are completely deprived of alternative to him, and those who need a four-wheel drive will be able to pay extra and choose something closer to German competitor: the turbocharged 1.6-liter gasoline unit with direct injection or two-liter diesel on 185 hp The gears of gear is also much easier: a seven-step predictive "robot" of its own for the development koreans is marked only by a gasoline turbomotor, and all other options are equipped with either six-speed mechanics or a hydromechanical machine with the same number of steps.

1 / 2

2 / 2

But the choice of a mechanical "base" is perhaps not the most difficult compared to the definition of a suitable configuration. The key difficulty here is the difference of the German and Korean approaches to the formation of the list of equipment (we have already come across this in comparison. If the second implies a relatively simple gradual saturation of the car by options in parallel with the increase in the price, the first is both wildly folded at the same time, but it is just as convenient. The point is that that each of the Tiguan packages is "basic", and it can be purchased for the packages of options necessary for you. As a result, simple five versions, multiplied by a bunch of apartments, form an irrelevant number of variations for a wide variety of money. Moreover, even the most "eldest »The equipment is also not exhaustive - there is no much of what can be obtained for surcharge. Therefore, from the point of view of direct comparison, the Volkswagen configurator is a real wakhanalia, and there are suspicions that at least one third of those 3 thousand people are buying Sportage every month. - these are those who have not mastered the choice of a suitable version of Tiguan (and although this is a joke, she is slightly sad ).

Of course, in such conditions, absolutely a thorough comparison is simply impossible - but we found the most reasonable way to compare crossovers. Given the options for equipping and price, we chose, opposing them available five complets Volkswagen. Tiguan. Now let's get on business.

Basic equipment

Subconsciously greater freedom of choice even in the basic version you expect from the Korean car, but in practice everything turns out to be the opposite. Sportage in the classic version is offered exclusively in front-wheel drive with mechanics - well, with a two-liter atmosphere, of course. If you want a four-wheel drive, you will need to pay not only for it, but also for the package of "warm options", albeit very useful, and the amount of surcharge will be as much as 180 thousand - exactly the difference between the front-wheel drive version of Classic and all-wheel drive Classic "Warm options " But back to our database.

Tiguan philosophy is different from the very beginning: even the basic list of equipment can be put into a car with a 125- or 150-strong engine, as well as select between the front and complete drive and mechanical or robotic gearbox. Only here to get a car and with DSG, and with a full-wheel drive, 4Motion can not, and the latter requires at least 150 hp. under the hood. But even taking into account these restrictions, the selection of the engine and the transmission is wider here than at Sportage.

The Germans and the Koreans and the approach to the set of basic options will be varied. There are, of course, a lot of common: a good airbag set, a wide range of electronic auxiliary systems, which includes not only ABS, stabilization and assistance when attaching to the mountain and descent from it, but also a system stabilization system, as well as other "little things" like a multi , Power box and central locking kit with key control.

But then quite serious differences begin. Basic Sportage is also fully basic: there is air conditioning, an audio system with Bluetooth, CD, USB and a monochrome display, and a tire pressure control system. On this list of options, in general, it is exhausted - you can easily add 16-inch alloy wheels.

Tiguan basic wheels - 17-inch, but this is not the main difference. There is still a whole ohaper of useful trifles: an heated electric boiler, leather trim and lever PPC, heated front seats, steering and nozzle washer, three-zone climate control, cruise control, headlight washer, fog and electrical equipment. In addition, the audio system here already has a color 6.5-inch screen, and speakers 8 against 6 KIA. Binds the list of a distance control system to ahead of the car with an emergency braking system.

Considering all the above, it is absolutely not surprising that Tiguan in the initial configuration costs more expensive. However, the difference in price is not so great as it would be expected. For Kia in a non-alternative design, 1,289,900 rubles will be asked, and for Tiguan with front-wheel drive and a 125-strong motor - 1,399,000. At the same time, it is possible to pay exactly a hundred and for 1,569,000 rubles to get the same machine with DSG, and you can add 170 And become the owner of the all-wheel drive 150-strong crossover on mechanics for 1,569,000 rubles.

Fair for the sake of chagrin more detail in more detail and about the above-mentioned versions of Classic "Warm options", in which Sportage receives heated front and rear seats, side mirrors and lower edges windshield, as well as the ability to order a four-wheel drive or automatic transmission - but separately. For the warmest options themselves, it is proposed to pay one hundred thousand (and the car will cost 1,389,900), in a bundle with a machine gun - 140 thousand (up to 1,449,900), and with a full drive - 160 thousand (up to 1,400,900 rubles).

More options

Step up the list of complete sets continues the topic of partial similarity and the general difference. Sportage in the Comfort version is equal with Tiguan on the heated seats of both rows, side mirrors, steering wheel and windshield, and also gets a rain sensor, separate climate control and cruise control. But in terms of "unique" options here again, it is not so thick: this is an electric folding of side mirrors and an electric drive lumbar backpage driver's seat. Well, the automatic mode of the driver's windows - if this can be considered the option that deserves such attention.

However, Tiguan in the ComfortLine configuration does not appear "critical important" equipment elements, although the list is quite interesting: halogen headlights give way to LED, and even with a light sensor, on dashboard The color display appears, and in the bumpers - parking sensors.

But from the point of view of Tiguan technology, continues to lead, even more expanding the spectrum available options. All engines are available here: both variants of the 1,4-liter motor, a 180-strong version of the two-liter, as well as diesel. Even mechanical PPC You can choose - True, only with the most chaxed 125-strong unit. But the four-wheel drive is available with any of the remaining three options, and the diesel and the "senior" gasoline engine, as we remember, get seven-step DSG, as it digested a greater torque.

But Tiguan leads not only in terms of technology, but also by price: for the front-wheel drive "mechanical" version you need to give 1,589,000 rubles, and a four-wheel drive, an automatic and 150-strong motor increase the price tag for almost 200 thousand, to 1,799,000. Diesel The version will cost another hundred more expensive, at least 1,899,000 rubles, and the most expensive Tiguan in this performance is a two-liter gasoline (with DSG and a full drive, of course) for 1,989,000 rubles. Kia is all a bit "easy": the front-wheel drive Comfort on the mechanics costs 1,444,900 rubles, and with automatt - 1,504,900. Four-wheel drive Increases price tags to 1 524 900 and 1,584,900 rubles, respectively.

Modern Multimediga

The third version of the equipment is quite non-standard in terms of direct comparison - the fact is that Tiguan has wedked the CITY Special Commission from Tiguan between the performances of ComfortLine and Highline. Sheeter is because in it for less money is offered a number of options, which will then be unavailable even for the base Highline, appearing again only "in the very top". Well, Sportage simply gets a new set of "specials", which displays it in the Prestige package.

The KIA crossover in the Prestige version again "catchies" Volkswagen in terms of the presence of a headlight washer, a color display on the dashboard, light sensor, electrostructure and set of parking sensors. But something even overtakes: the skin appears in the seats finishing. Xenon headlights - A unique option, but only because Tiguan is equipped with exclusively diode head optics.

An important addition to both machines is a full-fledged multimedia system with color touchscreen and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support. Not a big difference There are a diagonal of the display: Sportage is 7 inches, and Tiguan - 8. In addition to modern multimedia, both cars receive invincible access with the engine start button and the rearview chamber.

Well, the "cunning" tiguan, in addition, will get a good set electronic assistants: Among them, the blind zone control system, a collision warning system when driving reverse, Assistant parking with lateral sensors, as well as adaptive cruise control, which is able to "crawl" in a traffic jam. A bonus can be considered an electric drive of the trunk door, which is in addition to the "deferred closing function".

In terms of technology, there is almost nothing compared to the last version: Sportage in the arsenal is still only a two-liter 150-strong atmospheric in combination with different types Drive, and Tiguan is a practically full range. Only a mechanical checkpoint here can already be obtained: in the "urban" version of City, even a 125-strong front-wheel drive Tiguan is equipped with a "robot", and Sportage also deprives the option with the manual transmission.

The price tags, depending on the motors and boxes grow onto a hundred thousand rubles. For Sportage asked 1 709 900 or 1,789,900 rubles, depending on the type of drive, and for Tiguan - from 1,689,000 to 2,039,000 rubles.

Almost top

Making one more step up "hierarchical stairs", reappear on a small contradiction. PREMIUM equipment at Sportage wears such a name is quite justified - in the sense that there is actually nothing higher to equip it, since the performance of GT Line is more image, rather than functional. But Highline at Tiguan, as we remember, not only acquires, but also "loses" in the equipment compared to City, and the following option, Sportline, receives these options again.

Turning to specific lists of equipment, it becomes clear what we are talking about. Korean is gaining a good set of new options: here and electronic assistants in the face of holding systems in the strip, control of blind zones, recognition of road signs, help with parking with reversing and automatic "intellectual" parking, and binmark headlights, and panoramic roof with Luke. A wireless charging tray appears in the cabin, and outside the 19-inch wheels with low-profile rubber.

But Tiguan takes a step forward and step back: here again there are no multimedias with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a complex of electronic helpers when driving, but a 12-inch screen appears instead of a classic dashboard and system automatic control far LightAnd the diode light itself becomes projection.

In affordable motor gamme Sportage finally appears alternative to two-liter gasoline motor - two-liter diesel for 185 hp But the choice of type of actuator and gearbox on the contrary is canceled: "Premium" crossover can only be "automatic" and all-wheel drive. Tiguan Solidarity with a colleague in terms of "cancellation" mechanical boxesBut leaves the opportunity to choose a front-wheel drive modification with a 150-strong engine.

But much more interesting here is that in the Highline configuration you can get the 220-strong version of the two-liter gasoline engineWith which Tiguan accelerates to hundreds of no worse than the Zamenikh Hatch - in 6.5 seconds. This is the most expensive performance - it will cost a minimum of 2,259,000 rubles, while diesel car Available for 2,089,000, and front-wheel drive - for 1,889,000 rubles.

It happened that both "top" versions of crossovers have a sports title: Kia is GT Line, and Volkswagen - Sportline. That's just an approach to their functional filling, as we already know, somewhat varies.

Korean crossover In this configuration, the image elements are obtained: truncated bottom "sports" steering wheel, stealless petals, metal lining on the trunk threshold, special interior trim and special 19-inch discs, as well as LED fog lights. At the same time, GT Line is even somewhat "modest" than Premium: There is no Bixenon and panoramic roof, as well as the above-mentioned recruitment of the driver's facilitation systems - hold in the strip, the control of blind zones and so on. And even parking on the "sports" crossover will have to be independently: there is no car parker here either.

But his German fellow, on the contrary, "picks up" all the options that were listed in the versions of City and Highline, and adds to them a few more chips: alternative "ergonomic" front seats having an electric lumbar backup and a massage function as well steering with variable gear ratio. By the way, only in this version of Tiguan is equalized with the Sportage on the wheel diameter - this is a 19-inch "rollers" with tires of dimension 255/45.

Justice It is worth noting that "sports" version Kia.After having lost some option, as a result, it turns out cheaper than the execution of Premium. The difference between the "Nemen" and "Korean" in these versions is about 300 thousand rubles. The main trick version of the GT Line for Sportage is the ability to choose a 1.6-liter turbo engine at 177 hp. In a pair with seven-step robotic gearbox with two clutches: such a car will cost 2,044,900 rubles. With an ordinary atmospheric, it costs 1,934,900 rubles, and the diesel modification is the most expensive: 2,054,900 rubles. Tiguan is expected to be deprived of low-power engines and front drive, keeping the choice between double-liter gasoline and diesel units. Diesel is the most "cheap": it starts from 2,289,000 rubles, and the gasoline modification, depending on the capacity costs 2,289,000 or 2,369,000 rubles.

conclusions

Conclusions about the profitability of the purchase in favor of one of the considered cars, we can do not traditionally do. There is something to think about, not only in terms of equipment. Someone prefers modern turbomobiles and rapid preselectual automatic machines, and someone fundamentally buys more simple atmospheric engines and hydromechanical automatic transmission. For someone, the speaker plays the dynamics, and for someone - saving a few hundred thousand rubles. Therefore, the final choice, as always remains for the buyer - and we hope that the decision-making process has been somewhat easier.

Now there are quite a lot of good SUVs in the domestic car market, but Kia Sportyj and Volkswagen Tiguan deserves special attention. Both of these cars are distinguished by both sufficiently good functionality and the presentable appearance.

But many car enthusiasts are interested in: "Tiguan or Sportage. What's better?". In this article we will try to answer this question.

So, we will try to compare Kia Sportyj and Volkswagen Tiguan, while let's start with the peculiarities of the pride of the German car industry. Two-liter diesel Tiguan was an undoubted leader in our country among cars of a similar class. Only in 2010 they sold more than 40 thousand such vehicles.

Nevertheless, due to the development of South Korean automotive concernsFor German, it became harder to hold their advanced positions. At the same time, Tiguan is fully adapted under domestic marketEven the assembly is happening in Russia (Kaluga). Sportsji collected in Slovakia.

If conduct comparison of KIA Sportage and Volkswagen Tiguan for the price, then it should be emphasized that the second car is somewhat more expensive most of the analogues. At the same time, it does not affect its popularity - many give preference to a reliable and durable German.

But Kia is not much inferior to his competitor to prevalence. In the same 2010, she wanted to acquire more than 30 thousand people. First of all, it is connected with just incredible appearance vehicle, Design to which Peter Schreiner was developed. Original shiny headlights that are combined with a straight bottom line, as well as a number of other design features, create a unique and unsurpassed image.

Tiguan or Sportage: Interior Review

To compare Tiguan and Sportage, it is worth looking inside the cabin of these cars. In Volkswagen, everyone will feel comfortable, almost like at home. There are no excesses or newcomers frills. Everything is simple, as loves the Germans. Naturally, for some such a faceless salon may not like, but there are no annoying elements of the interior. No extra decor or too bright colors.

In addition to a sufficiently small design, it is worth noting another disadvantage - incomplete adjustment of the steering wheel in height. For drivers who prefer landing "On the floor" will have to be somewhat disappointed, because heavily lowering the seat, the steering wheel will have a little stretch.

In principle, you will not find any more minuses. Mostly german car You will please much. Only high-quality materials were used for decoration, which is easily overlapped all the quarrels that can be for design. Yes, and the location of all keys and switches are more than convenient. You can manage secondary functions through a seven-wing monitor.

If you are a lover, and choose between Tiguan or Sportage, then the second car will greatly delight - the salon looks more than unusual. The quality of the finishing materials is also not bad, but not compared with Volkswagen. In front of the front, mostly, you can see the hard plastic, knocking on which you will hear unpleasant sound. But the landing is convenient.

It is impossible to find the location of the switches and devices, the steering wheel is high enough. Management intuitively understandable, does not cause any difficulties. It is worth warming that many drivers are not delighted with red backlight, but here they can not do anything - this is one of the chips of the South Korean manufacturer.

If you summarize, then the design is completely different, there is an amateur. At the same time, quality and ergonomics are a bit better at the German.

What we will see in the rear seat

So: Kia Sportage or Tiguan, what is better? Before answering this question, move to backseat. Places are enough and there, and there, however, in order to grow hard to get enough. Volkswagen has one advantage here - folding tables, just like on the plane.

Video comparison Kia Sportage or Tiguan What is better:

The obvious advantages in Kia, as well as the minuses, no, except, except, the functions of the heating of the sofa, which is very useful in the cool period of the year. In principle, for passengers will be more or less comfortable. A little uncomfortable only for man, which is located on the rear middle seat.

Features of the engine

To find out what is better: Kia Sportyj or Volkswagen Tiguan, it is important to assess the characteristics of these vehicles of these cars. If we talk about a German car, then the cars released in Kaluga are equipped with an engine with a capacity of 140 horse power With six-speed automatic box Shift. For Russia, Turbodiesel 170 horses is inaccessible. The engine is able to overclock the car until hundreds of 10.7 seconds.

Kia has a greater power (184 horses). - 195 km / h. A hundred takes for 10.5 seconds. As a result, it can be argued that south Korean car A little more powerful. And if when driving around the city, the difference is practically not felt, then on the highway the German is inferior a little. But it also affects the consumption of fuel (for example, 6.3 liters takes 6.3 liters, and KIA - 7 L).

Tiguan and Sportyj: Comparison of suspension

If you choose Kia Sportage 3 or Tiguan on the suspension, then in Volkswagen it is perfect. This is explained simply - it was specially adapted for our roads, so the passenger with the driver feels comfortable, regardless of the type of road surface.

In Korean, the suspension is tough, irregularities, especially large, cause discomfort.

conclusions

If you summarize, choosing Kia. Sportage or Volkswagen Tiguan make it difficult enough. On the one hand, the engine in the German car is somewhat weaker, but here is the handling and ergonomics at the height.

As a result, the car is perfect for leisurely family people who appreciate comfort and quality. Kia makes a bet on the design and fast ride. In principle, both models can compete successfully, so the choice is only for you.

Winter video Test Drive: Tiguan or Sportage What is better:

Four-wheel drive and good clearance - its main advantages.

Weak sides:

The disadvantages will not describe - the owners of "Zhiguli" will be ridiculous.

Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TSI (Volkswagen Tiguan) 2011 part 2

So, my friends, the mileage moves to a hundred, and the car continues to present surprises. The joy ended when the focus2 was replaced by Honda CRV. I will not compare with her, because, forgive me Wag-about Fil. CRV with a motor 2, 4 is better in everything. On it, the mileage is almost 50 thousand. Because it ride more pleasant. Tobish, if where on a dalnyak, then Honda Roulet, and Wag smokes on the sidelines. Wag he is purely short scholar distances in Moscow, and also a controversial moment, because the flow rate on Tiguan as aging is growing terribly, and dealers and other masters, they say that this is the norm.

So let's start in order. Sorry but in this class of parketnikov I will compare with the CRV, since I have and use these two cars.

In previous reviews, if you remember, I talked about the problems associated with Tiga. So I want to draw your attention to the fact that I did not have time to write. There is one very an important nuance When changing the timing chains, when disassembling it is necessary to inspect each bolt in the chain tension system. Since they are sick from high loads and, accordingly, their remains can get inside, and this is, respectively, the Popados Dvigov, according to the condition, as it were, as it were, do not care, but for not name Popados on very decent money.

Strengths:

Pure German, with all the resulting !!!

Weak sides:

There are nuances, and there are a lot of them compared to Asians.

The Japanese and Koreans are ridiculous in all

Review Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TSI (Volkswagen Tiguan) 2011

Hello, friends! Passed exactly year since the start of ownershipVW Tiguan 2.0 TSI . During this year, I wound on his wheels exactly 10,000 km. Now you can write something about him. I will compare with my favorite carVW Golf v 1.4 TSI.

I bought the car exactly a year ago completely spontaneously. Just every winter on the golf at least a couple of times, yes stuck in some snowy-ice pit so that without a tie either there or here. And last winter in someone else's yard once again stuck so that it was stuck for a whole hour, not able to be asked to push anyone (a banal situation - well, there was no one from passersby, and that's it!). Suddenly I see - dried trick on Padzherik; Well, I asked him to hook (even more so that the tie was already holding at the ready). Pagerik drove my plane, absolutely not straining. Only I said goodbye to the grandmother, thanking for the help, as I was immediately stuck once again ten meters from the former standing, and another half an hour. Passershed helped push out. As soon as I came home, I immediately buried on the Internet, trying to search for something all-wheel drive. And I looked at the Tiguan before, but I didn't see any needs in it, although the car was quite attractive for me. Along the way I looked at competitors.

Once, for informational purposes with his wife, they drove through the city salons to look at crossovers. Peugeot 3008 really liked, but a monoid. In Toyota RAY 4 as sat down, and it came out - not mine. Watched Renoshka Duster and Koleos. What is there to say here? I have traveled a golf for several years. If it were not, maybe Koleos and could somehow like it. But golf was. She watched Chevrolet Kaptiva and Opel Moks and Antaru. Captiva is not mine. Mokka, too (I would not even take it because of the name). Antara more or less accounted for taste (very similar to a German car almost in everything, but still simpler). Just in case he had it in mind, but did not like the size - too big. I will say right away - I do not like big cars, and my ideal could quite be all-wheel drive golf. Even when I had a conveyor, I moved to my vazovskaya "fourth" with great pleasure when I had to go somewhere on a dalnyak. Well, I'm just crazy about golf. Therefore, I also watched Skod Yeti, but she even in the most expensive configuration inside was simpler than my golf trendline, and for some reason, I was completely unable to find a comfortable position for myself. Nevertheless meant this car, but she categorically did not like his wife.

Volkswagen Tiguan and 3-4 generation Kia. Sportyj - crossovers, already the eighth year persistently competing among themselves. Often when choosing compact SUV. Buyers are considered in priority these are these models. One side, german quality And the strict view of Tiguana pinches car enthusiasts to its purchase, but on the other - the innovativeness and originality of Sportyj puts them in a dead end when choosing. Having considered crossovers from all sides - we present to you today's comparison and analysis about what kind of car is better.

Specifications

In order to maximally answer the question - "What is better: Tiguan or Sportage?", We just can not contact a detailed study. technical characteristics cars. We will consider indicators regarding the most relevant models today, namely, crossovers 2015-2016 production. For the convenience of their perception, we suggest familiarizing yourself with the following comparative table:

As you can see technical indicators equal. There is nothing surprising in this, because the concept of building most crossovers is extremely similar. Tiguan and Sportage did not exceed the exception, therefore, in terms of passability, and in terms of the general technical picture they are if not twins, then the faithful brothers.

Important! Both cars are collected qualitatively, so in terms of reliability do not inferior to each other.

Performance

Having understood with the previous clause article, it was clearly defined - on the paper Volkswagen Tiguan and Kia Sportyja are absolutely equal, but is it really possible? Let's learn about this by analyzing the real performance of crossovers. To begin with, consider the economy of models. Regarding the fuel consumption, the situation "on paper" is completely similar to reality. Of course, the numbers are slightly different, but consume a fuel that the crossover from KIA is that the crossover from Volkswagen in the same quantity is about 11-18 liters per 100 kilometers of a mixed cycle.

As for the repair of models and their overall content, there is similar equality here. Especially spent on neither taxes, nor on passing the owners of these models will not have to be - all price tags at an affordable level. In general, the economy of the model is absolutely equal.

The speed of movement and the travelery of crossovers are equally important. In this indicator, to be honest, Tiguan has a slight advantage. This model is at least better starting from the place and the total "glory" of the movement, even if maximum speed Small up the Sportage takes. Relative to maneuverance and manageability that "Korean" that "German" are very good and are about one, high level. The passability, as mentioned earlier, is also the same, because the torque, the concept of the suspension and the mass of crossovers is very similar. Despite the total equality in some comparison components, still in this context of consideration will give an advantage, albeit a small, Volkswagen Tiguan.

In terms of sets and overall functional equipment in the question - "Tiguan or Sportage?", Once again, the winner could not identify. The fact is that both models are equipped with approximately equal configurations, the cost of which is:

• tiguan - from 900,000-1 900,000 rubles;
• sportage from 1,000,000-2 200,000 rubles.

As you can see, the equal equality.

Separately, it is worth considering the exterior and interior of the models. About external view Crossovers say something difficult - definitely, the case of taste, but it is possible to estimate the interior. In general, Volkswagen Tiguan Salon is more competently thought out, more comfortable and solid, Sportage, of course, does not depress the situation, but the "Japanese" interior clearly does not reach the level of a competitor (less convenient, not so high-quality, etc.) .

RESULTS

At the end of today's material, it is necessary to somehow summarize the comparison of Tiguan and Sportage. First, let's summarize the main advantages, disadvantages and parity provisions regarding the crossovers under consideration in the following table formed taking into account more than 200 reviews of data owners of models:

Despite the small amount of advantages, Kia Sportyj is also relevant at the car market of the Russian Federation. This is largely due to its innovative design, good reliability and speed characteristics. However, Korean still failed to knock down from the principle position in the segment of the crossovers of Volkswagen Tiguan, which the last couple of years is the leader of sales in its field of specialization. Of course, in general terms german car It looks interesting in today's competitor, but the final choice between them is still done to everyone own.

Our resource hopes that the material presented above gave you some "food" for reflection and as a whole was useful. Good luck on the roads and in the choice!
