 The Sportage has everything you need.   It's fast, with unbelievable take off and passing power especially in sports mode.  It's quiet, comfortable, stylish and has an excellent sounding harman kardon stereo system.  And for a small SUV, it feels roomier than the Rav4 and much more fun to drive.  Love the two tone canyon and beige interior.  We tried the Rav4, CRV, Escape and Rogue before deciding on the Sportage.  Not as fuel efficient as other Suv's and we are at the pumps often but then again it doesn't help that we always want to be driving it.  We average about 28 imperial miles per gallon(from Canada)
