New Kia Sportage for Sale near Wataga, IL
The long-running Kia nameplate gets another update for the 2026 model year.
No model demonstrates Kia’s growth like the Sportage compact crossover SUV. The nameplate has been around since Kia’s early days in the United States, and has evolved into a true rival for popular crossovers like the Honda CR-V, Subaru Forester, and Toyota RAV4. The current-generation Sportage was introduced for the 2023 model year; it gets revised styling for 2026.
Verdict: The refreshed Sportage arrives with the competent execution we’ve come to expect from Kia, but the X-Pro Prestige model doesn’t live up to the brand’s reputation for value.

What people say
I love this vehicle. The features are awesome . Would definitely recommend
This is a wonderful vehicle. It is only missing the cooling seats that the prestige model has.
Great features with lots of safety features. Drives remarkably well. I can now see why it is such a popular vehicle.
Pros: Smooth and quiet ride as long as windows are up. Good price for all the features on the vehicle in the lower trims. Lots of room in back and trunk. Cons: Quality of workmanship does not match Honda and Toyota. Interior has too much hard plastic which don’t align smoothly in some areas. Factory paint job also very poor. Engine loud outside when idling.
Very good value car. The car has so many features but what I am missing is not have an electronic passenger seat. I was looking also for Rav 4, CRV, Tucson and Santa Fé
