Hyundai Tucson 2022/23-ish as a Towcar?
I have been looking at higher spec Kia Sportage (226BHP GT Line-S, AWD mild hybrid) as a replacement for my current old 180BHP Diesel AWD. The new model is a great drive and probably a good towcar, once you have worked your way through the minefield of decreasing tow capacities for newer models. However, I have just learnt that I will probably have to pay an extra £425 per year car tax (over and above the standard car tax) for the next 4 or 5 years for the privilege of owning one, as they were all over £40k, which I am not keen on. Can any owners advise me on the Tucson, probably the 180BHP AWD mild hybrid, as tow car?
I would be interested in recommended alternatives, but would prefer higher power, AWD suggestions, otherwise I may just stick with an older (but newer than mine - 2013) version of the Sportage or a lower spec model.
