Best car for my wife to own

This was the third car from my dealer, two souls and now a sportage, first soul was great, wife loved it, gave it to son who moved to MD, second was leased she used it everyday around town. When lease was three months due KIA offered a great deal so we leased a Sportage a little bit bigger for her golf clubs but the same enjoyment she got with the souls.

So far the best car i've owned

Great car has lots of power and space for my needs. I wanted a sunroof and navigation and it came lots of extras including auto high beam headlights which is really useful, haven't had to switch high and low beams yet.

Great car for the money.

The car has a very comfortable ride, good pickup, but disappointed on fuel economy. It is stylish and nicely appointed.

Best car you'll ever own, saved my son's life!

My 2005 Sportage was put to the test 3 weeks ago in a horrible crash. Everything they say about the 5 star crash test rating is TRUE. This car had it's front end crushed, airbags deployed, the car did a 360 but never flipped, windshield and windows remained intact even though the passenger doors were compromised...my son got out with nothing but a very slight airbag 'burn' if you can even call it that, and a bruised ego. Thank you KIA!! Best car you'll ever own!! I have seriously never had a problem with this car. . . (Just bought the 2018 if that tells you anything) ;)

Fuel efficient, fun and stylish vehicle!

This car is fuel efficient, comfortable, and has plenty of power. The headlights provide great visibility and I love having a back-up camera. The heated seats and side mirrors are a great bonus. KIA provides a 20 year, 200,000 mile power train warranty, which is awesome! The only thing I am adding is a remote start.

Nice zippy little crossover.

This car meets my needs of comfort, reliability, and features. The smart key technology is super convenient.
