Overview & Reviews

For 2014, the Kia Sportage receives an updated 2.4-liter engine. Now with direct injection, it's more powerful and efficient than before. Other changes include refreshed exterior styling, the addition of high-performance suspension tuning to all trim levels (previously, it was only on the SX) and various feature upgrades, including available xenon headlights, updated navigation and touchscreen systems, a new premium sound system, a ventilated front passenger seat, rear-seat air vents and updated Uvo telematics services. The Sportage's previous base trim level and its available manual transmission have been dropped from the lineup.

• Good value
• Eye-catching styling
• Sporty handling
• Generous warranty.
• Powerful engines, particularly the turbo engine in the SX trim

• Lackluster fuel economy.
• Firm ride quality
• Modest backseat and cargo space

  Uncomfortable Seats, Horrible Gas mileage, - 2014 Kia Sportage
  By t.turman@gmail.com - May 29 - 8:34 pm

  So paid cash for a Mustang GT that I bought from a friend, well spouse drove the thing one time and said it pulled to the left so took it to Ford and found out it had been totaled out by insurance company and it was on the Carfax, so spouse threw a fit and made me trade it in, had a choice between a 2010 Chevy Malibu which was a hell no and a 2014 Sportage, so took it I absolutely hate it. Seats are uncomfortable, they have no way to adjust lumbar support in lower back, the steering wheel doesnt come down enough so if you want to put your arms on the armrest you have to rotate which arm is driving. I got the same gas mileage in the Mustang that I get in this POS, It has no power to go, even turning the damn ECO off its like waiting for the hamster in the wheel to catch up...... I fill up at least twice a week, even if I take it easy and drive like a grandpa it just sucks. Unfortunately I am stuck in this damn thing for at least two years or unless someone runs a stoplight or stop sign and takes the whole front end off, which I hope for every time I get behind the wheel, I would get out and hug them afterwards and thank them. I think the only thing I like about it is the color and the height. Thats about it....
