Serves me Perfectly

published

I have bought Kia Sportage SLi version so it has got leather seats.
Driving Experience: I mainly drive on weekends and that too on Highways like M1. I am really pleased with Driving experience. The cruise options are handy in long drive.
Comfort: Since it is SLi version, it has got leather seats. It is very comfortable for me and my family. The boot space is huge. There is enough legroom for tall people and two people can seat in back after placing a big car seat.

Kia has a 7 year capped warranty scheme.

Excellent car. Economical, no frills, good value for money. Corners well. Wi fi is easy to set up. Good boot space. No completely silent but acceptable. interior no frills, would have liked leather but that would have increased the pice.



Reliability is A1, no problems at all. In all, a good car.

Lovely SUV KIA 2016

published

We purchased a brand new Kia Sportage just over 12 months ago. We have driven 30000km to central Australia, Northern N.S.W. and in comfort and in style. The car is spacious and easily accommodates camping gear, tent and suitcases. The diesel engine is quite economical and powerful. The car has automatic reverse parallel parking which is a dream.

Not a bad choice

published

The Kia Sportage is good value for money.Well equipped and the diesel is good on fuel.Very easy to drive. A bit awkward to park. Faults in my opinion is it is a harsh diesel that doesn't like being pushed at higher overtaking speeds.Seats are not the most comfortable, could do with more support.On a positive note it is a very well priced package and with a 7 year warranty, should be definitely on anyone's shopping list for a suv.

Great suv

published

My daughter has had a few Kia's so we decided to look at the sportage. We haven't had any dramas with it, and the warranty is a great selling point.
The car looks classy and the interior is sophisticated. I only wish the passenger seat in the front was as high as the driver. I love the rear sensors and all the technology that comes with the car.
Good on petrol and good vision.

Excellent experience

published

I purchased a 2013 SL sportage. I’ve never had any issues in the last 5 years. It’s an auto and finds the gears easily. It doesn’t chew the petrol either.
Services are reasonably priced.
All of that just makes it the most reliable and best car in the car industry.

Has all the bells and whistles

published

Have a KIA Sportage GTL, fanstastic car, it has everything that other consumers are paying double the price for. Blind sport detection, lane control, keyless entry, keyless trunk, sunroof, apple car, speed zone arlets, android wireless charger, electric seat control, heated & cooling seats the list is endless people. Take a look at them before you go and spend extra 50k on car.

I purchased a 2013 SL sportage. I’ve never had any issues in the last 5 years. It’s an auto and finds the gears easily. It doesn’t chew the petrol either.
The one con I have is I do find the side mirrors slightly too big and at times they act like a blind spot.
Services are reasonably priced.

Omg the radio-don’t bother

published

The electrics are nice but when they start playing up-the dealership is really no help-so do not get a car out of warranty-the electric will cost you probably just as much as the car and the dealership won’t really be helpful-so now I have no radio if I have issues with a radio good luck with other real mechanical issues.never buying a Kia again

Great value. Has all the bells and whistles

published

Great SUV car. When you compare to other brands in same category this ticks all the boxes and is excellent value for money. 7 year warranty - can't go wrong. Took it in for first service and it was free! Back seat passengers appreciate the speakers and heating/cooling vents. Kia have thought of everything. Highly recommend.

Love this SUV. Great Price, Best Warranty & Great to Drive.

published

Got the 2018 AO special model with the extra safety features and 18" wheels. Best price SUV out there. The 2.0L diesel is amazing so much power, Sport mode is WOW. AWD and just hugs the road. So glad we bought this car. Downsized from Isuzu MU-X. But the Sportage will still tow 1900kgs. Love this car !!!

Such a brilliant vehicle

Upgraded to a Kia Sportage from a Toyota camery and will never go back, the Kia has so much space and oh my lord the boot space is just amazing. We’ve done so much travelling since purchasing our Kia and it has never skipped a beat. I couldn’t recommend Kia anymore then I already do.

SI Premium - a delight to drive

published

I purchased my Kia Sportage after much research about vehicles of this size. The Kia had the best options and inclusions, and so it was a natural choice. The handling is marvellous, and there is minimal road noise. The only qualm I have is around the performance of the engine, as it sometimes feels a bit underdone.

The legroom in the car is excellent, especially after I changed from my work car, a Mazda CX-3.
So far so good in terms of reliability! Cost is around $65-80 to fill up depending on the petrol station and time of the year.

Love it!

published

Best car I've ever driven. Perfect for the young family. We got it after our first baby was born when we realised a hatch wasn't big enough. The GT version has all the safety features we could have wanted as well as the handy life savers of key lessons entry and auto tail gate, which make juggling a bub that much easier. Never scramble for keys again.

AWD gives that extra piece of mind in the uncertain Queensland weather. Feels so safe and secure to drive. Drives and parks like a much smaller car.

Can't go past this car. Not only is it stylish it is cheaper than comparable brands. You will spend the same on the top model as the less equipped models in other brands.

Coming up to 4 years and 50,000klm and no problems

published

I have the Platinum series 2 Sportage, Litres per hundred Klms is around 7.3 cheap to run, I have towed a caravan 1600kg for a while this increased the Litres to 14. it's a great Vehicle and we have not had any major problems. we originally had the air con freezing this was fixed on the 1st service and that's all. it's comfortable and great to drive, it's quite on the road and has plenty of leg room all round. I have 1 little niggle the rear seating heating can easily be turned on and forgotten by the passengers. I am still on the same tyres that came with Sportage maybe another 20,000 ks to go. love the fixed price service on average around $400 a year. I would recommend Kia has come a long way.
