The Sportage is Kia’s longest-running American nameplate. And in the summer of 2017, the SUV was honored for its stunning and contemporary design around a structure that is stiffer and more spacious than in previous models. Advanced driver assistance systems, significant suspension and steering improvements have all upgraded the Sportage’s capabilites. Intelligent all-wheel drive greatly improved the Sportage’s driving capabilities, while the best materials available and all-world craftsmanship create an upper-class experience. The cabin is roomier and more luxurious, and the interior features technologies that increase comfort, convenience, and connectivity. These features include a rear-camera display, Bluetooth compatibility, hands free phone buttons, and more.
Updates to the drivetrain provide better efficiency and performance, while changes to the suspension give the Sportage better ride and handling. The Kia Sportage is available in three distinct trim levels (LX, EX, SX Turbo) and comes with Kia’s industry-leading 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty and five-year/60,000-mile limited basic warranty.
