Great SUV

I love this car and it’s tech. It rides smooth and is very comfortable inside. The acceleration is good and responsive. It has a lot of driver assistance features but doesn’t go overboard with the whole “take over” the steering and braking fads going on now in new vehicles. I like to drive, so don’t ‘AI” my car. The climate controls, ventilated and heated seats and steering wheel make the car very cozy. Love it.

Looks Sporty, Smooth Ride

Love my new car! It's sporty and rides so smooth. The only thing I wish I had more of is power. It doesn't accelerate very quickly but overall, so far, I love it and recommend this car.

Sexy new Sportage!

I never thought a Sportage could be exciting - utilitarian, dependable, great value, sure. But a car to make you look forward to driving it? Not so much. I just picked up my Sportage X in Sapphire Blue, a new color... and it is gorgeous! The redesign is a total win - a little bigger than my 2019 Sportage and the new dash screen is amazing. Ride is so smooth, handling is responsive, I am thrilled to drive this baby!

Not Enough and Too Much

Two inarguable facts are unavoidable. *One. The Toyota Rav4 is the only smaller midsize SUV that has standard horsepower of 200 (203), making the purchase decision a no brainer. The problem is a vehicle weighing 4 to 5000 lbs is heavy. If you need actual 4WD to venture offroad and hike / camp, most AWD cars aren't really capable, especially if underpowered. *TWO. The only thing the Sportage was in absolute need of was more power and charging 35 grand for the 240 HP SX is ridiculous, placing it in much better competition. It's laughable to me every time I see a complete redesign of anything that only needed more horsepower and torque, yet a company spends millions on adding more tech or exterior tweaks. The Sporatge has suffered greatly because of this one simple thing, while increasing its price every year. Now the 2023 is bigger and longer but hilariously still is horribly underpowered at 187 HP and torque at 178 but will be 2 to 3000 dollars more than the 2022 so the 25 year old's can have a bigger screen. What Kia needs is an actual 4WD.Think two door size Wrangler with better ground clearance and more purposeful interior minus piano black blah blah blah that scratches instantly the 1st 3 months of ownership. Think lightweight 250 HP 4 cylinder.
