2009 4dr SUV 140-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Research revealed surprising quality and positive ratings from professional and KIA owners. The new 10 yr/100,00 mi. warranty iced the cake. see full Kia Sportage review
2008 4dr SUV turbocharged 138hp 2.0L I4 Diesel
6-speed manual AWD		 This is my 2nd Kia and the brand has a good reputation with me. I also like the no nonsense image and the exceptional warranty. see full Kia Sportage review
Kia Sportage Brand Reputation: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 176-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 I'm just really ticked off that the fuel economy is nowhere CLOSE to what was advertised. Want to return this vehicle and get a vehicle from a different Company. For anyone else affected by the fuel economy, there is a "compensation program" that uses low estimates for every facet of calculation, so they want to pay you about 1/5 of what you really should receive for fuel compensation. Just despicable of KIA. Will never buy one again, and forewarn others. This is a really dirty practice done to boost sales over other companies. Fuel economy is completely unachievable. It is fraudulent advertising. Never KIA again. see full Kia Sportage review
