I believe those are going to be the exact same vehicles 
, although seems 2023 may be out of reach as there are rumours of fixed allocations and they are still catching up on 2022 orders.

Speak off, I honestly wouldn't mind the Kia Sportage PHEV as well same platform, fancier interior
same platform, fancier interior
If sporty is what someone wants that would be the Sportage. Just opinion of course but I would say the Tucson looks more upscale inside and out, more of what they call a Boulavard look. Sportage more sporty. I happen not to like the shape and size of the the air vents in the Sportage or the front end. Tucson has a little more substantial disc brakes and I believe is rated to trailer more weight about 350lbs. For me the Tucson has one of the best front and rear looks obviously for some it will be the Sportage.Speak off, I honestly wouldn't mind the Kia Sportage PHEV as well
Same cars but on several sites I see differences in interior space, size of disc brakes, towing and available trim. Just want to point out I'm not pulling out my comments from thin air.

Oh yeah, interior space can be different, they share the same platform, but I believe kia chose to move the rear seats a bit forward to get even more trunk space if I am not mistaken.
What about the official specs ?
The same wheelbase, the same width, obviously same engine and platform,
Sportage towing 2000lb (speaking of hybrids and PHEVs)
Tucson towing 2000lb (speaking of hybrids and PHEvs)
they both have 3500 for ICEs
According to kia Canada, read brake is Solid disc (11.8”) which already makes the car connection a bit off.
Tucson seems to have bigger brakes on the rear tho, so that is correct.
What I meant originally, platform and mechanical wise they are the same vehicle.
Yep, while I like Tucson more from the outside, I find the Kia's interior more "posh"
, Tucson may have too much of the piano black, Kia has heated front shield which is both nice in the winder, but I found it a bit distracting as I could see the little lines. The Tucson's diffuse vents are a win for my fiancee, as she is quite strict on vents.
So at the end, I am just seeing which order goes to production first
