Used Kia Sportage for Sale near Anthony, FL

How much does the Kia Sportage cost in today's market?

Used Kia Sportage prices span a wide range depending on model year. Here's what the market looks like right now:

The Kia Sportage's current nationwide average price is $21,388, and its nationwide average price reached a low of $19,775 over the past year. Recently, prices have come down for the 2023 and 2025 models, making now a good time to shop recent model years.

Is the Kia Sportage a good car?

Yes — the Kia Sportage has broad appeal thanks to its comfort, spaciousness, and feature-rich cabin across the lineup. The all-generations owner rating is 4.48/5 across every model year in the data.

Owners consistently praise the Sportage for its comfortable ride, roomy interior, and strong value, and many also highlight its stylish design and useful features. Across the years, the most common praise centers on comfort, practicality, and the amount of equipment you get for the money.

Expert reviews rate the 2017 and 2022 models among the highest across all years.

The main trade-offs show up in performance and refinement: some recent expert reviews describe the base engine as fairly pedestrian, and a few years bring up interior materials that feel cheap or technology that feels dated. Even so, the Sportage remains a compelling used SUV if you want a well-equipped, family-friendly crossover.

34.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.

Are Kia Sportage models reliable?

Owners consistently describe the Sportage as comfortable, practical, and easy to live with, and the strongest reviews often point to its value, ride quality, and everyday usability. Expert coverage also reinforces that reputation by highlighting the Sportage’s broad equipment list and family-friendly character.

• Owners rate the Kia Sportage between 4.0 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.

For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is best managed by checking condition carefully and prioritizing well-kept examples, especially on older model years.

What should I look for when buying a used Kia Sportage?

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 80.2% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2022 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Fuel efficiency: EPA fuel-economy ratings for the non-hybrid Sportage are 28 mpg combined (25 mpg city, 33 mpg highway) with FWD and 26 mpg combined (24 mpg city, 30 mpg highway) with AWD. Unless you opt for the Sportage X-Pro, that is. It’s rated at a lower 24 mpg combined (23 mpg city, 26 mpg highway). The other powertrain options are more efficient—the FWD Sportage hybrid is rated at 42 mpg combined, and the plug-in hybrid gets up to 34 miles of all-electric—but these numbers are comparable to the non-hybrid competition.

Which Kia Sportage trim should I buy?

The 2026 Kia Sportage offers these trims:

• LX: The entry point uses the 2.5-liter four-cylinder and gives you the standard 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the core driver-assistance suite.
• EX: A smart step up if you want more comfort and convenience, with available AWD and the kind of equipment that makes the Sportage feel more upscale day to day.
• SX: This trim adds the Harman Kardon premium audio system and sits above the core lineup for shoppers who want a richer feature set.
• SX-Prestige: A strong value choice if you want more available AWD flexibility and a more premium-feeling Sportage without moving to the off-road-focused versions.
• X-Line: This trim adds different front and rear bumpers, tread-like stitching for the SynTex artificial leather upholstery, and standard AWD.
• X-Pro Prestige: The most capability-focused choice, with all-terrain tires on 17-inch wheels, different drive-mode tuning, standard AWD, and the most rugged look in the lineup.

What Kia Sportage do most buyers choose?

The Kia Sportage years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2025.

Those higher-volume years tend to be the most popular because they give you the broadest mix of availability, pricing, and equipment. They also sit close to the current generation’s sweet spot, where you can find newer features without paying the newest-model premium.

What is the Kia Sportage's resale value?

Most model years are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used because it creates more room for value. A few newer years are holding up better than the rest, and one recent model year is still moving up slightly. Overall, the pattern favors buyers who want to step into a Sportage after the first wave of depreciation has already happened.

The 2024, 2016, and 2017 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
