**BRAND NEW Kia Sportage Hybrid 2023 IN-DEPTH review...!!

[@Funkydood]

Here at the U.S., the basic model (LX), has a 2.5L engine with 187 hp/178 ft-lbs torque; 8-speed tranny. I got one for my better half and we're both in love with it!

[@Trevorfoggia]

Why show the previous styled Hyundai Tucson? You should show the new one. I had the previous Tucson that you showed in error, it was very good and now I have a 2023 Sportage HEV GTlineS. A great car. I always enjoy your reviews especially as I know very well the area you drive around and I miss now I live in the northwest. But please get the info correct.

I love the design. In the uk heated seats only on gt line s !! Fuel economy is getting worse. 25 town and 36 motorway Dealership says there's no issues. So I'll change it for a diesel

[@ianbyrne5298]

I'm in the UK and I've got the 3 and it has heated seats front and rear.

I likeit I like the review professional

[@CarandDrivingCarReviews]

thanks!

[@danielaumlaut]

Does anyone know what happened to the "4" spec? All the launch videos mention it, but you can't order it now.

[@jordand29]

Had this exact question recently, as wanted to get the 4 version. I was told they discontinued it due to parts shortages and the fact that it was so close to the GT Line S. So it's no longer available :( went for the GT Line S instead and currently awaiting delivery in 2024.

Hi can you advise does 2025 sportage have ppf petrol filter problems

[@barryrigby1568]

Bought the HEV in March 2023. The front passenger seat in one part of it had faded after 3 months. Kia say this is fair wear and will not do anything about it. So much for a 7 year warranty the seats only last 3 Months

[@phil5743]

Warranty is irrelevant as sale of goods act will apply in this case.

[@b312kolencik]

we are considering Sportage 1.6 T-GDi HEV 4WD A6 in that 30th anniversary edition AGAINST .... Honda ZR-V in Advanced edition and I really cant tell which one, pricing here is pretty much the same. we are family of 3. What do you think?

[@vasilescuadrian1580]

ZRV much smaller, no spaces inside to put things, uglier at the exterior, you get less car and specs for the same money...

[@vasilescuadrian1580]

In depth but not really in 11 minutes, this video should have been 1 hour long...so many things features missed about the engine, equipment, safety and other.

[@MRT.1977]

If you check, they always do a much longer video aswell.

[@stizzygrayson5541]

Please review Honda ZRV

[@gorindolea]

seen lots of people complaining about these 2022-2023 kia sportage cars.....their engine faild their 7dct gearbox shaking and needing service in the first year or ownership....is this car plagued with issues?

[@vasilescuadrian1580]

Thats why they cut down the production for 7dct gearbox and you can find it only on the Plug-in model and for petrol only 6 speed manual or automatic one.

[@leesmith9299]

i think you misnamed this video. i assume your normal hour+ video is the "IN DEPTH" one rather than this short video.

[@ac-pq5ip]

Did the Tucson dirty there - 1:26

[@Tulan-hz6ho]

Being (South) African I have a fairly good command of the English language however I must say I was taken aback by your usage of the word "feelless"[sic]. I kept thinking could that be a word!!? Couldn't find it in Google's dictionary. Nothing turns on it, but if an English-speaking man begins to coin new words, he ought to inform us or warn us,atleast.

[@caskraker]

Get the right Tucson, compare it and conclude the Tucson is better looking inside and out.

[@kendom33]

I have the gt line version. Dreadful mpg. Returned to kia. Nothing wrong apparently. I'm told it has a 3 CYLINDER 1.6 turbo. No heated seats. No heated mirrors. Sadly I'm going to sell it.

[@vasilescuadrian1580]

35-40 mpg on the full hibrid one 1.6 engine 180bhp with electric engines totaling 230bhp doesn't sound that bad does it? how did you get it did't you know what equipment it has? GT line has standard heated seats and mirrors. You seem like a hater and you are lying, clearly you don't know the car and specs.
