Car reviews

Kia's big 4x4 is big on looks, big on value and big on ability. It's a great all-round package and well worth considering over some more expensive rivals such as the Land Rover Freelander and Toyota RAV-4. Its styling is echoes that of the 1998-2005 Mercedes-Benz M-Class which was substantially more expensive and the standard equipment list leaves little to be desired. Even if you'll never need it, it's good to know that this is also one 4x4 that can get you out of trouble if you do get stuck.
