  • Catch a Sport! - 2017 Kia Sportage
    By -

    Just Bought this 2017 Kia Sportage LX on 4/3/16. This is a 4th Generation Sportage. Much improved over the 2016. 1 1/2 inches longer, more sound deadning materials, improved interior over 2016. I have only owned this vehicle a coulple of days. Fit Finish, performance, this Vehicle is a must see on your list of cross over SuVs. Even includes a Backup camera on the LX Models! Long Warranty. Test Drive it! You will be pleasantly Surprised! Just added another Review on 10/5/16---Have owned this Sportage now for 5 months and I still stand behind my review above. DRIVE IT! YOU DECIDE SPORTAGE OR CR-V! Kia has gone the extra mile to really come up with a real winner here!

  • Defective Vehicle - 2017 Kia Sportage
    By -

    Loved my 2012 Sportage. This 2017 has a major defect that is apparently a recall in the waiting. The transmission is worse than bad. Mine has locked into a gear and would not change. It constantly downshifts when it has no business shifting...thus, planting you into the steering wheel. It has a proclivity to slip into neutral while driving causing the RPMs to redline for no reason. The dealer has no idea what to do about it because Kia hasnt come up with a fix. I am aware of three other cars just like mine with the same issues.....all brand new. Ive had strangers come up to me in parking lots and ask if my tranny is screwed up too. Kia has to be aware they are selling cars with a defect.

    Would hold out for the highest package with power hatch in 2 wheel drive.

  • Finally - 2017 Kia Sportage

    We have a 2011 Sportage and still love it. This represents the first radical change since that model came out. It meets my entire checklist of must have items except for adaptive radar cruise, which is only available in larger models. We were willing to forgo that option in favor of the size of the Sportage which is just right for us. We couldnt be happier. Kia has worked on every feature to make it smoother, softer and more advanced while still intuitive.

  • So far so good - 2017 Kia Sportage
    By -

    My wife just traded her 2014 Mustang for a base 2017 lx Sportage front wheel drive. So far havent missed the Mustang at all. The Sportage rides extremely comfortable and has been getting 26 to 27 mpg in town. The A/C will run you out. The visibility is terrific with little to no blind spots. The 4 cylinder has ample enough power around town and on highway for a SUV. Negatives? Stereo sound is wimpy and do miss the hid headlights the Mustang had. Overall we are satisfied with the look, ride, and performance of the 2017 Sportage.

    I previously had a Kia Sportage 2013, this new model is so much more advanced. I went in to purchase the 2016 and seen this one on the show room floor and had to have it. It has so much more than I would have hoped for and the price was still under 30 thousand.
