Well, the Tucson again comes out ahead with a base-level trim that starts at just $23,200 MSRP, which is substantially less than the Sportage's comparable trim at $23,750.
ÂAnother important aspect that many SUV buyers look for in a vehicle is its MPG ratings. Whether you choose the Tucson or Sportage, both vehicles have a combined rating of 26 MPG, and have comparable total vehicle ranges as well:
So whether you're taking your family on a cross-country trip in your new SUV, or simply hauling groceries from your local grocery store back to your home, each of these vehicles offers great fuel-efficiency numbers.
 
These compact SUVs both offer seating for up to five passengers, but the 2019 Tucson actually comes equipped with a bit larger interior. The total passenger volume in the Tucson comes in at 102 cubic feet whereas the Sportage's passenger volume is just 99 cubic feet. For tech-savvy consumers, the Tucson also comes standard with satellite radio capability as well as mobile integration, whereas these are only optional upgrades in the Sportage.
