New Haval H6C vs Kia Sportage - Head-to-head Review

The Kia Sportage fits neatly into family car segment of the market, which is dominated by cars such as the Hyundai Tucson and Toyota RAV4, not to mention the Mazda CX-5. In such a competitive arena, Kia has an uphill battle in trying to woo buyers. With the arrival of the Chinese-made Haval H6C, that task just became a touch more difficult. The Haval H6C is brand new to South African roads, and its introduction follows the relative success of the smaller H2 crossover which we reviewed earlier this year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uzAnOtqDIs In this head-to-head comparison, we've pitted the Haval H6C Luxury (the top of the range model) against the Kia Sportage 2.0 EX Plus, which sits in the middle of the Sportage range. As you'll see in the review, these 2 cars are extremely similar, but in one very important way, they are very different. As things stand, these two cars are separated by R70 000.
