A Pleasant Positive Shock

I liked the features of the car. They were exactly what I was looking for. I have been more than pleased, however, that the car feels and performs way beyond my expectations. This is one time when I have really made the RIGHT DECISION!

Car dependability

The Sportage is great for older persons that require comfort when driving around town and on the road for work. The gas savings is amazing!

LEASE A KIA SPORTAGE

When I was in a desperate need for a car and not in a financial position to purchase one the lease deals that Kia presented were great. One payment down and free starter and within my price range. The salesperson was great and also the financial staff. The showroom and waiting and service have been more than great. The pickup in this car is unbelievable. Very roomy and nice ride. After first 2 months took a 5 hour trip and it was great. Good on gas.

Will love it if we fix the problem/s

Love the car but I believe it has brake or some type of issues. Might be the tires. Need to get it looked at ASAP.

Another home run

This is my second Sportage. I test drove the Hyundai ` Sante Fe before my purchase and found the acceleration wasn't as peppy. I'm happy with the vehicle.

Great Value

The car has been reliable and great creature comforts for the price. Handling is good, dash and buttons are very well laid out, has plenty of room for up to 4 adults (5 in a pinch), fuel economy has been good. If looking for a midsize crossover consider the Sportage they are a fantastic value.

A very interesting car

The car meets my head and leg room needs. I don't have any problems getting in and out of the vehicle. I am enjoying the drive. I have yet to test the storage room space but it seems more than sufficient.
