50K on my 2018. Never missed a beat and still a great drive. When it came time to buy the wife a new car we had the choice of trading-in our 2.5 Mazda3 Sport or the Sportage GT-Line, both with the same mileage and vintage. The Madza was traded on a 2020 Stinger GT so now we have 2 KIAs, saved money, great warrenty and great smiles, no matter which one we drive. KIA is really going places.

I've had both Acuras and Hondas yet as time went by and my budget changed I bought an Optima Hybrid then traded in for an Sportage. I really do enjoy it and it picks up quickly. Handles well for it's vehicle type. I have a '17 with 25,000 miles and no complaints so far.

[@helmutschnell6698]

I agree there is something about it which I cannot put a comment on it. All I know I smile a lot when driving it. It feels solid and I do like the look as well. Seats are super comfortable

[@king-xerxus7040]

It’s really a great vehicle, makes me wonder why the new 2023 upgrade is so different. So many on the road.

Lololol @ your electrified flamingo dance .. quite impressive 😂 thanks FOCO for your entertaining smarts on the Kia Sportage ! I’m so sure on my new purchase to drive one now ! 🙌🏽❤

[@mattmaverick703]

I leased a brand new at the time 2021 Sportage EX AWD also in silver with same wheels package but mine doesn't have leather interior or the power roof. I absolutely love it and just got color matching door moldings done on it as well as a Black beltline pinstripe to give it my personal touch. This color cleans up well too and in the worst of winter weather this thing will move when other vehicles simply will not! Good little truck for the price 👍

[@kellymahabir4229]

Really great review, thanks a lot and continue the great job.

Just bought the 2022 Kia Sportage LX it came with the black 18 inch wheels, appleplay is great. Got it due to an emergency my wife’s Jeep transmission went , 40k gone for nothing. My wife will be using it for a few months and we plain on giving to our daughter in the fall for college, they both love the veh. Most likely going back to Kia for the new Sorento in the fall or the Sportage upgrade to the turbo engine.

[@Mububban23]

Currently driving one for a week as a loan vehicle. Very impressive.

[@truth959]

This looks way better than the RAV4

[@focoreviews824]

Definitely!

[@sveronih5376]

Lol I traded mine in for the much better looking Rav4

[@lilpops30]

How is the harmon kardon system

[@focoreviews824]

In my opinion it is excellent, but I am not a sound expert. I would have to compare some of the other audio systems out there to give you a solid answer.

here in the Philippines only the driver has an airbag. best safety feature for Kia.

[@sdk1991zzang]

That's sad. The government should make the manufacturers to put all the safety features as standards.

[@sveronih5376]

Mine started sputtering and had a delay after stepping on the gas after 15,000 miles. Got rid of it

Does it come with a fire extinguisher ?

[@focoreviews824]

Marktuyet, can you explain your question?

[@sooparticular]

@@focoreviews824 can it put out fires? why would he need an explanation

[@sooparticular]

@Barbara Sowak hi Woman..Im a man! its a great idea:)

[@focoreviews824]

@Barbara Sowak Thanks for your comment! No it isn't a crazy idea. I was just confused because I have personally never seen a vehicle come standard with a fire extinguisher. So I wasn't sure if it was a serious question or not. Trolling is pretty common on KZbin. As far as I know, the Sportage does not come with one. Though you may be able to pick one up aftermarket.

[@lonniebeal6032]

So far, only the Theta II family has been catching fires, some from the mechanics failure to do their job properly, others the supposed antilock brake control module. Speaking of which, I should get my fire extinguishers recharged, no joking.

[@RedQNZ]

you have to be careful driving any car or truck over grass the exhaust system is so hot on the bottom of the car could cause a fire

[@focoreviews824]

Thanks for the tip RedQNZ! I'll be sure to take that into consideration in the future. Also, please subscribe to our channel to help us grow!

Drove a new Kia Sportage base model, it felt horrible to me , really noisy and didn’t have much power in my opinion . Probably need the turbo I’m thinking

[@focoreviews824]

The turbo really makes a difference
