Love It

This car is great. Very comfortable seats front and back. Great interior roomy. Has all the bells and whistles. Was very easy to program. The ride is great, quiet car. I have never owned a Kia before but would not hesitate to purchase another. Will definitely recommend to family and friends.

Great car!

This car was my choice after test driving the Nissan Rouge, Hyundai Tucson, and of course the KIA Sportage. It had a smother ride and the visibility is exceptionally good. I love the large backup camera and the car is very quiet on the highway. The interior is attractive and very comfortable.

Practical and luxurious

Practical but luxurious to my standards. Great on gas mileage. I have enough room in my garage for this vehicle and then some! Plenty of leg room for everyone.

Only had it a week, but love it!

I have been looking at the Sportage for about a year now, going through reviews and comparing pricing with other vehicles. It always came back to Kia. I am not disappointed, it's only been a week, but I really like it.

Better than my QX50 at 80% of the cost

This car does everything well. Headlights, safety gear, acceleration, ride, handling all very good. Surprise was the 30 mph highway, 24 mph local on regular fuel. This is the 2019 SX Turbo AWD

Terrible headrest design

The only real issue is the uncomfortable headrest that really doesn't allow you to sit in a comfortable position. Seems to tilt your head forward.
