Best car I've ever owned.

This car met all my requirements. The Kia warranty is excellent, the car inside and out is beautiful, and it handles like a dream. I love it.

Still exploring all the options, so far so good!!!

So far the sportage has met our needs, we have only had it for about a week, so are still feeling out and trying out the variety of amenities

I adore this car

I went into the Kia dealership thinking I didn't like the Sportage and only liked the Sorento, and then I saw one face-to-headlights and fell madly in love. I've driven it for a few months now and haven't had a single day yet where my love has wavered. It's exceptionally comfortable, and one of the smoothest drives I've ever experienced. The sound system bumps, it's perfect in snow and ice, and the "sport mode" really moves. I can't possibly recommend the Kia Sportage more.

Officially an SUV person!

This is my first SUV and living in the Northeast I am not sure how i survived in the snow this long without one. The exterior ( front end) is not my favorite looks wise but the interior and the trunk definitely make up for that. I am so in love with this car.

Really enjoy this car

It?s the perfect size for my needs and is good looking to boot. It?s sits a little higher which is easier to get in and out of yet still feels like I?m driving a car, not an SUV. It handles well too, I couldn?t be happier I made this decision.

Great, sporty SUV with some pickup

I really like this car; it's my second Sportage. The new design provides a better view of the road ahead of you. The interior design remains exceptional, with comfy seats and all around elegance.

Best handling in the snow of all cars I have owned

This car has met all of my needs and is great in the snow. I would recommend this car to anyone who lives in an area with a lot of snow. Has a lot of space for storage and great for the kids and all their sports equipment.
