A Sportage chance of market dominance for Kia
The Nissan Qashqai and the Renault Kadjar are so similar as to be inbred, as are the Hyundai Tuscon and the Kia Sportage.
The Qashqai is the daddy of the crossover (Nissan cheekily claim to have invented the breed, but they didn’t) and, with it, Nissan has persuaded a generation of drivers that a vehicle that looked like an SUV, but which drove like a saloon, was the way to go. The massive success of the Qashqai meant that every other manufacturer has had to follow suit.
