    Hyundai or Kia for a smaller SUV?

    Hyundai Hyundai Advice Hyundai IX35 Hyundai IX35 Advice Hyundai IX35 2015 Kia Kia Advice Kia Sportage Kia Sportage Advice Kia Sportage 2015

    You helped me about six years ago with advice on buying my 2006 Ford Territory Ghia. Now, after a very good run with the Ford — apart from front-end problems fixed under warranty — I'm now seriously thinking about a smaller vehicle as I no longer tow a boat. The Hyundai ix35 Highlander seems a great replacement. Is a Kia equivalent an option?

    The ix35 is definitely a good choice but I lean to the styling of the Kia Sportage and it has a longer warranty. They are mechanically identical, apart from suspension tune.
