Kia Sportage models

I’d not contemplate the smaller 136, personally, as I know I’d regret it’s lack of power. In terms of MPG, I doubt the 2.0 185 will be any thirstier as the smaller engine version will need to work harder and change gear more often.

Actually, I’d go for the Sorento…🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks for advice will have a look at Sorento

It’s a very popular tow car well up to the job.

We tow  a Pegasus Genoa with an eight year old sportage 185bhp 2ltr auto, and it needs a light foot to keep it within  speed limits

 ..... I agree .... 😲😲 🙄😉

You don't buy tow cars for their economy.😉 As Tinny says, the smaller engine will be working harder generally, so the bigger 2.0 won't be that dis-similar in terms of mpg. Buy the 2.0! 

Woo-hoo!🤣🤣🤣

.. 😂😂

I have just bought the 136bhp mild hybrid diesel 2021 AWD auto towing a 1500 kg Coachman Vision. Having towed with. 170 bop Mercedes C class I was a bit cautious on bhp drop. The sportage is lovely, plenty of power , even on hills. Sometimes forget the caravan is on the back. Sport mode is good at roundabouts to stop lag. So smooth and comfortable and stable. Thoroughly recommend it, and I am getting 30 mpg towing. Bought a seven year service plan that equals one Mercedes’ main dealer service 

Different rig but I had a 136BHP 2009 Euro 4 Kuga, albeit 2L towing 1350Kg. An additional 100Kg wouldn't make much difference, it's air drag that really affects performance. More modern engines give a much improved "bag for your buck". How much of a hurry are you in?
