2025 KIA Sportage exterior and interior review

[@jokensy101]

This headlight design is sooooooo much better than the previous one!

[@OuchyWowchyFrybread]

Kia really nailed the facelift styling. Phenomenal job with the video too!

[@binarytech8457]

Kia, please bring double laminated glass to Europe!!

[@vlatkomatanovic8062]

Very nice! Now, Kia...we want that car in Europe with proper diesel engine (2.0, 150 HP, at least...)... That car...not some short version... Please!

[@piotrjedrzejewski4040]

Kia ma klasę😮.Super

[@adrianen9440]

The four spoke wheel is wild

[@justdrivepov6263]

looks like that

[@rakhsiprayogo82]

This or BMW X3, Audi Q5, Mercedes GLC, Tesla Model Y, Lexus NX, Infiniti QX50, Acura RDX, And Others, Right?

[@dyl6085]

No more like the RAV 4, Rouge, and Honda CRV.

[@rakhsiprayogo82]

@dyl6085 I Know this is Compact SUV Brother

Nissan Qashqai, cheaper 15k euro and much better at least here in EU, I am talking full options sun-roof, dual color, 20 inch rims, head up all, max spec it cost me 35k euro and this is 50k euro.

[@markussavolainen]

@@_petar Idk where in Europe you are, but in Finland for example Qashqui Tekna+ tops at 49k € as either fwd HEV or 4wd m"HEV"( or fakeHEV as I like to call them), while Sportage HEV GT-Line fwd is 51k €, awd 54k € and PHEV is 55k €. That being said with the last two you are really comparing apples to oranges as Sportage at the moment is only available as HEV(fwdor awd) or PHEV(awd only) vs Qashquis ICE(fwd or 4wd) or HEV(fwd only). The real difference(at least here) is in poverty spec as Qashqui starts at 33k €(fwd fakeHEV) vs Sportage 41k € (fwd HEV) but again that is't really apples to apples feature nor fuel economy wise(that would be E-Power for 39k €), but rather only from pure minimum money spend aspect.

Except the proce of this one is affordable compared to the rest 😅

[@saddamfadi2545]

Will every 2025 Kia Sportage be available in a trim level all space ?

[@amrmohamed8298]

Why didn’t you mention the specs for the 1.6L model

[@meetdtruth5600]

Lol why did they flip the headlights the other way?

[@_petar]

Well even if it is nice car I cannot hide it how come in US and Korea long wheelbase costs around 25k euro and here in poorest EU country Bulgaria similar spec is 50k euro?

[@Rocinster]

When will this arrive in the US?

[@dateintokyo]

These will be the 2026 model year in North America so probably mid-late 2025?

[@taharzmamla1152]

Le volant est super moche

[@jeter1971]

From the front you can't see the DRLs, it looks horrible, the previous one is a thousand times more beautiful

[@velboone6041]

No it doesn't, it looks more modern and better

[@jokensy101]

Your taste in car design is questionable! 😒

[@meetdtruth5600]

Agreed. Not sure who was behind this decision it's like they want you to hate the car so than they can make the car everyone wants the next time around

Wow, the steering wheel destroyed the whole Interieur Design... Thanks, but no thanks

[@binarytech8457]

Only 180ps for HEV? that's much weaker that current version :(

Still terrible position for the headlamps

to be honest, i was very disappointed with the look of the new SPORTAGE 2025, i was really looking forward to the launch, hoping that the car would be really cool looking, but it is just correct and nothing more, there is nothing here that grabs the heart, the front is very calm and subdued designed not to stand out particularly, there is no highlighted feature, of course it meets some modern styling standards, but that is the end of the story. I have seen many concepts on the internet of what the new Kia Sportage could look like and many of them were better. Likewise the rear end, there is nothing interesting going on here, I'm not saying it should be flashy but it should attract something cool, those not very big rear lights are designed to be quickly forgotten. it's a shame. Inside, I appreciate the removal of piano black from many surfaces, but the whole thing is not captivating and memorable, especially the steering wheel which is worse than the previous model.

[@jokensy101]

@@Chris19744 This unnecessarily long comment is so full of 💩💩💩!

[@meetdtruth5600]

Oh, absolutely! Feels thrillingly uninspired, doesn’t it? And that steering wheel-chef's kiss. Moving the Kia logo to the corner like it’s auditioning for a delivery van? Bold choice. And why bother upgrading the screen size? Clearly, bigger screens and futuristic interfaces are just overrated gimmicks. Who needs innovation when you can stick with the “tried and tired” approach? After all, the average consumer loves feeling outdated in just two years, right? Nothing screams forward-thinking like banking on a design that screams, “We’ll make it uglier and call it progress.” Genius strategy-foolproof, really!

Nothing special prefer the new kuga

[@marciocabral9435]

Conseguiram estragar o visual do ícone Sportage, seria melhor ter copiado o design dos europeus, esta frente ficou muito desproporcional e exagerada, parece que o carro veio de uma história em quadrinhos, só falta colocarem bichinhos espalhados na lataria, fora este volante que se parece que veio da década de 80. Amadurecem por favor, sou da marca e agora terei que mudar.

[@YerkebulanRakhim]

[@tibimirta8085]

Who had the ideea to put a shoe polish can instead of a proper gear lever?

[@OciOtvorene]

The KIA brand shows that the car can be ugly. They did great. Once the Fiat Multipla was the icon of the ugly car, now it will be the KIA Sportage. And the new steering wheel is horrible too.
