Exactly what I wanted

I love it. One of the best vehicles I have ever owned. And the color is to die for. I would buy this vehicle over and over again. Everyone I know is in love with the color of this vehicle (Burndish Copper)nothing like it.

Exciting Car to Drive

The Completely redesigned SX turbo for 2017 will turn the heads of the owners of the dull RAV 4 and Honda equivalent. The car has 360 degree sensors, and has a 5 star + safety rating from the IIHS. The one drawback is the 21 mpg highway rating, but with gas prices hovering around $2.00 per gallon you do not lose much. Great value, best warranty, and too much fun to overlook. Paul McCarthy

My favorite small SUV yet!

For it, it was the perfect purchase. The size, ease of handling, the comfort, just the total package. I love it.

Always liked Sportages

It is very roomy and comfortable. Handles great and I still get good gas mileage. Love that it has back up camera and CD player.

Best auto I have owned

I did a lot of shops and test drives of small SUV's and determined this was the best value. Coming from owning a performance sports car to this is a great move for an aging hipster.

So far I love this car !

We've only had this car for about a month, but we're really happy with it so far. The leg room is more than sufficient & we have 105lb Bernese Mountain Dog & there is room enough for him in either the back or the back seat area (with a dog sling for safety). The panoramic sunroof is a great feature & makes the inside feel even bigger. This crossover has great visibility - the backup cam is fantastic & the blind spot detection & warning system are great features too. I haven't found any flaws yet :)

Love this car!

I purchased a 2017 Kia Sportage in May. I love this vehicle! It is so quiet and drives like a dream. Gas mileage is unbelievable. I took a road trip last weekend and averaged 35 mpg. I keep it on echo drive while driving in town and that averages 27 mpg. Would highly recommend!

Excellent SUV

This vehicle is a solid choice for someone who spends a lot of time in their car. The comfort and drivability of this vehicle are remarkeable. Kia safety and long warranty, plus lots of amenities like Sirrius XM to make a long commute or trip enjoyable. The only area this car could improve in is gas mileage which is fair at about 30 mpg.
