Meets all my needs and my plans for the future

This car is perfect for my life style. I wanted something kind of big but not a full SUV and that's what this car does. I love the quality of this car I got the base model but if you take a really good look it looks like I bought a luxury car. I love all the features and the MPG is great for both city and highway.

What a car

I have driven many cars in my day. This is the nicest car yet. Solid sexy responsive this car has a little of everything. At 24-28 miles a gallon I think its a great addition to our family.

Snappy

Only have it for 1 month but very happy so far. I love the turbo charged engine. It gets good mileage (25 MPG) and have not driven it at Interstate speeds yet.

I am absolutely thrilled with my Sportage!

This car meets all of my needs. I was looking for a small SUV with plenty of leg room and reliability in the snow. With the AWD, I am no longer hesitant to drive in inclement weather. It also gets excellent gas mileage. I couldn't ask for a better car!

Intuitive Technology

I immediately want to acknowledge I am not a car person who knows and cares about engines and mechanics. I care about ease and comfort and my new Sportage is spot on. For instance, adjusting the air conditioning is a breeze, having lights that, when set on Auto, turn on and off according to need, and having a mapping system that is voice activated are all qualities I really appreciate and make me believe that the Future is Now.

2017 Kia Sportage EX - Great little SUV

I just leased this car and it's really nice. It has a nice large video display monitor. This is handy for the standard rearview camera. The heated leather seats are nice and comfortable. I really like that it has two 12V connections, an AUX and a USB connector in the front. It also has a USB connector in the rear for the passengers and a basic air control vent. The rear seats recline given the passengers more comfort. It is not great on gas mileage, but it's a really nice midsize SUV.
