The Kia Sportage that was discontinued after the 2002 model year managed to combine the dinkiness of an econobox with the road manners of an early sport utility vehicle. Yeesh. The all-new 2005 model is a different species, and well worth consideration. If it looks like a Hyundai Tucson — or this review recalls my Tucson review — it’s because the models are sisters. South Korea’s Hyundai Motors has owned Kia for a few years and now shares with it many models and the most generous warranty in the industry.
