Why it stands out
The 2021 Kia Sportage distinguishes itself in the crowded compact crossover segment with a combination of sporty aesthetics and solid performance. It offers a choice between a traditional 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine producing 181 horsepower and a more robust 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that delivers 240 horsepower in the SX Turbo trim, catering to a diverse range of driver preferences. Owners consistently praise the Sportage for its smooth ride and reliable all-wheel-drive capabilities, which make it an appealing option for daily use and adverse weather conditions. Despite some criticism regarding cargo space and cabin noise, the Sportage excels with a user-friendly 8-inch touchscreen system, standard driver assistance technologies, and a comfortable interior—making it a strong contender in its class.

Bought a 21 Sportage SX AWD and had a return trip home of 250 miles so I got a good idea of the car and its features. Decent HP, Decent space inside, I really like the auto hold feature and the fact that it doesnt have a start/stop feature. Wind noise is louder than in the CTS I traded in. People complain about the MPG but I was showing 24mpg for the ride home going 75-80 on the highway. It takes regular too which is nice.

I wouldn’t think of buying any other suv. AWD models are a beast . After driving for about 21 years now I no longer dread it. Smooth rides and the features are awesome. Best car I’ve ever purchased.
