For 2020, Kia tweaks the Sportage's already bold styling and adds more standard and optional features. While the exterior revisions aren't transformative, they give the Sportage a fresher and more assertive look than the previous year. Along with a new S trim level and different wheel designs, the interior receives some new content. Upgraded leatherette seats and wireless charging are now optional. Likewise, every cabin features an 8.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability as well as an updated steering wheel and air-vent surrounds. The Sportage also adds more driver assists that include automatic high-beam headlights, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go technology, driver-attention warning, pedestrian detection, and lane-keeping assist.

Given its price, in a sense you could argue the Everest deserves a better engine than the five-cylinder diesel under the bonnet. In our comparison of Everest against Prado, the Toyota had the quieter of the two powerplants, but the Ford provided more power and torque. That was an off-road scenario of course.

Pros
Secure dynamics
Well-controlled ride
Capable drivetrain

Cons
Limp power delivery
Dim headlights
No steering reach adjustment

The Ford Everest has an excellent diesel engine, can seat up to seven, and offers the option of full-time, dual-range, four-wheel drive.Ford has done a good job of hiding the ute DNA: the Everest is comfortable on all roads but still very capable off road in 4WD trim.

Pros
Drives well on road,
and excellent off road.

Cons
Ride and handling less polished than in passenger-car based SUVs.
