Kia Sportage reviews

Purchased a Kia Sortage eco dynamics from dealer in Bletchley who cars are AA checked giving us the satisfaction of knowing it had passed the rigorous AA independent check with flying colours. We now feel more confident that our car is both roadworthy and safe.

This is my second sportage and never had a problem, very nice cars. The only thing I've been disappointed with is the MPG, around town it averages between 24 - 28 MPG and on a run between 35 - 40 MPG. Very good in the snow and well equipped, it's a car I'd be happy to recommend.

I'll certainly buy another one

Bought new and has lived up to expectations, it's not a Porsche but it can go fast enough for state of roads currently, motorway driving is pleasant. It's a crossover and does what you would expect. I use it for work, not just there and back no complaints so far, done 20k so far.

Selected for both caravan towing and local day to day use, somewhat large for parking in confined spaces and some restrictions on view. Not a cheap car to buy, but commendably economical for every day use. A a tow car it performs well though frequent gear changes amongst the closely related higher gears appears to give a better performance. Some passengers find it a little high to enter and leave, but in general they like it. I would have preferred a car with a little lower profile, but would readily buy another. Petrol was chosen to avoid possible problems with particulate filters.

A good looking car in which traditional engineering is a merit - easy to maintain and pretty fault free. Without going over the top the technology, including the built in satnav/phone and rear view camera, is good and easy to operate. Performance and manoevreability is pretty good for the size of vehicle but fuel consumption is a bit disappointing. Biggest flaw for me is that the front seats are uncomfortable and that there is no height adjustment on the passenger side - I've experienced more comfortable and supportive seats in much cheaper cars.

Very good for installed extras but could do better on miles per gallon.

Having had several 4x4 cars provided through my work such as Honda CRV, Nissan X Trail etc. I have found the Sportage to be the best and most reliable by far

Have driven Sportage for 13 years. Bought current (used) vehicle last year as needed an automatic followings a wrist injury which made gear changes difficult on long journeys. Brilliant car and good vfm. Want the new model!

This is a very comfortable economic car which we use to tow a caravan, hence the 4x4. The long warranty of seven years from new encouraged us to think about Kia in the first place and was favourably priced. It was not bought new, but was the dealer demo which meant we saved a lot of money against a new one...

My car is very reliable but it is well maintained

Very comfortable and reliable car. Great practicality with split 60/40 rear seats. Except for high car tax, very satisfied with this Kia

A very underrated vehicle, with Kia doing themself's no favours by making the present day Sportage a people carrier rather a get up and go, put the dog in the rear, type car. If you were looking for this type of vehicle, then a mk 2 Sortage could be what to look st.

Some blind spots on mirrors , stearin could be better , but a good all round car.

Can not fault this vehicle at all, reliable, good servicing costs, comfortable, nice to drive, spacious, I would have another one of these when the time comes. Would recommend the Kia sportage.

Very. Pleased with this car

This is my 2nd Sportage great cars and good value for the money. Pulls the horse box with ease. Good on fuel and can change from 2 to 4 wheel drive with the push of a button. Great family car and very comfortable on those long runs Wellsy from Kelso

Loved the styling and the new price. But in the real world I felt it was better on paper then in the flesh. Not that good to drive though went well, and not as practical as you would expect. OK though.

Decided to purchase a Kia Sportage due to excellent spec included as standard. I went for the '2' marque & wasn't disappointed Would recommend.

I had CRVs for many years but they became increasingly expensive to buy and maintain. The Sportage is a great compromise, not quite as big but so much better value for money in all aspects.
