I’ve had my Sportage for about six months. I find a ride to be extremely comfortable. Plenty of pick up fabulous gas mileage roomy interior great storage in the trunk area. Some people complain about the controls are hard to use, but I find them quite easy. I just keep it in climate mode the whole time and any radio or audio Settings are done on the steering wheel.

My wife and I are loyal to Audi but a situation arose where we needed to purchase a car for our secondary residence. We didn’t want to spend the money for a nice Audi and I’ve read impressive things about the Hybrid Sportage. I was completely sold after test driving it. We also tried Lexus, Mazda and Honda. Kia was the clear winner. Smooth, responsive acceleration and braking; solid steering, comfortable seats, very smooth ride, nice interior. The car feels very solid yet it’s very maneuverable. Well done Kia!

I do my homework and read many reviews before I test drive. I have had 2 HONDA CR-V, and my last car was Toyota Venza Hybrid, which I liked. The Honda CR-V hybrid and KIA Sportage hybrid, earned the top two spots, in reviews. I test drove the 2025 Honda CR-V hybrid and found it to have less features than my Venza, sluggish, and cost more. Then I test drove the 2025 KIA Sportage Hybrid SX-PRESTIGE. Hands down, this was a much smoother ride, came loaded with incredible features, had much more space than the Venza, and seemed as roomy as the CR-V. I bought the KIA for $3,000 less than the Honda I came with far more features. I LOVE this car. I’ve had it for three months, and every person who rides in it is impressed by the ride, looks, features, and mileage that I get. I’m looking forward to trying it in the VT winter snow. If it does well, I’m pretty sure I’ll stick with the KIA Sportage, when I trade in three years. If you are looking for a great car with an amazing warranty, test drive the KIA Sportage Hybrid.

It was worth the wait!

Love this vehicle! So quiet and comfortable and a pleasure to drive. The drive train is so smooth I can’t even feel it switch from electric to gas. I haven’t found anything that I don’t like about it yet. I am glad I waited for the Sportage EX Hybrid to arrive and not settle for the LX gas only model.

Sportage Hybrid Review

The fit and finish of this new vehicle is top notch. The interior is good looking, quiet, a lot of passenger space, large trunk space and comfortable seats. I have 500 miles so far on the odometer and I am getting 35 mpg. The majority of my driving has been in the city. My exterior color is gravity gray with a black interior. My ownership experience has been very positive. I would strongly recommend this vehicle.
