So after 5 years with a mondeo 2.2 thats now 14 years old its time to look for something a little newer.kind of decided on an suv for the higher position and ease of getting the mrs in and out ( back issues )
Seen on autotrader a 2017 kuga st line,2.0 tdci 150 bhp 2 wd and a 65 sportage 2.0 gt line Awd ,both id like to view and drive.mileage same,kuga �1000 more and has no towbar whereas the kia has one.
Anyone tow with either of these and how do you get on ?
The kias spec is great with reverse camera and AWD etc but at 134 bhp is it a bit underpowered ?
Really need to drive both but got a hard act to follow the mondeo.

That mpg while towing seems about right to me. We tow with a 2.2 Sorento and mostly get between 26 and 30 mpg depending on roads and weather conditions. Occasionally we get up to 33mpg but that is unusual.
