Just wondering if anyone compared the new Kia Sportage to the new Hyundai Tucson. They are supposed to be "sister vehicles" of the merged Kia and Hyundai, but I am curious if they truly are the same vehicles with different badges, or totally different units.
I heard they have the same mom but a different dad.
HI, I'm from spain, here, compared the Kia Sorento to the new Hyundai Tucson. What do you think?it is true? are the Kia Sorento and Hyundai Tucson really brothers?

Greetings,
The Kia Sorento and the Hyundai Tuscon are not siblings. It's the Kia Sportage and the Hyundai Tuscon that are essentially the same. The Sorrento and the Hyundai Santa Fe are siblings, although their drivetrain layouts and frames differ. They share the same motors (3.5L V-6 here in the U.S.) and are of similar size and capacity, but the Sorento is primarily rear wheel drive while the Santa Fe (I believe) is primarily front wheel drive.
Cheers - Jonathan
