I know they're mechanical twins, but I think the Sportage is better looking than than the Tucson. I really like those seats and the ventilation is important with synthetic leather seats. Very thorough review!
I was eyeing the Tucson for two weeks until Kia Sportage popped on my Facebook page. I looked at Tucson, RAV4, Rogue, Mitsubishi, & Mazda, and I was stuck with my SX- Prestige Wolf Gray❤. Got so many compliments of it 😍The only con to me is I wished the side mirrors were foldable.
@@kukanav7742 I ended up getting a certified (only 5K miles) 2023 Tucson Limited. While I prefer the Sportage styling it was too good of a deal to pass up (and I pretty much test drove all the ones you listed plus the VW Taos). Congrats on your car!
Heated windshield, x line syntex seats, stainless steel pedals, high utility gloss, black roof rails, x pro exclusive 17 inch wheels that are all terrain, x line body style, Matt Black wheel arches, all terrain mode, active all-wheel-drive with center locking differential this is all on the X pro prestige.

I have an SX Prestige hybrid on order. Did they drop the heated windshield and steering wheel for ‘24? Be nice if they added something like folding rearviews.
So the hybrid allows you to get a EX trim with a full package (it will include the panoramic sun roof) which comes out less than just buying the SX. Which is what I plan to order.
A lot of the auto industry is doing this where you can get a lower trim and add package to almost the same spec as others. I like that they still offer this as going up trim level to add features doesn't alway work out the best.

Buying one of these next weekend. So excited!!
Congrats they are nice
A hidden flaw is the rear seat floor mat is too big and doesn't properly fit.
Thanks for the insight
We bought same exact car for the wife, she loves it.
Congratulations they are nice
How is this different from X-Line Prestige?

@@HawkeyeRides Wish they made X-Line Prestige in Hybrids without having to upgrade to Plug-in Hybrid.

They still have the heated steering, I agree but it still is a great value congrats

How about Engin and transmission quality ??
@@mustang73648 normal maintenance and you should be fine 👍
Wait why does the higher trims doesn't have a volume knob? So how I am going to control the audio?
touchscreen
