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.
