Very good transportation, with durability and economy.

My experience with this vehicle purchased with 39K miles now has 124+K miles. Expenses for maintenance have been surprisingly low. Fuel economy has been 20 - 21 mpg with very little highway miles. Size of exterior and interior is fine for our use. Would like the suspension to be softer.

Most reliable car.

I have owned my Kia for 15 yrs. It has been my work car, my family hauler, my tower and my "truck". In all that time of hard work my Kia has only had to have basic maintenance. (Timing belt, brakes, hoses, plugs and oil changes.) I like having old fashioned 4x4 vs AWD. Great car/truck!

In love

I love my car it is the most spacious in front and in back, and it is the most comfortable car I have ever owned, also the best air conditioning ever even better than my husband’s Toyota Dakota 2011. I Love my car.

Best car every

Love my 2005 Sportage I do not understand why they changed designs on a vehicle that they cannot keep in the lot, but they did, so I kept mine. Still going strong just took it on a multiple state road trip without issues!!!

Not a bad little car.

Love this little car. However it sure does have some quirks. It makes a fun rumbling noise whenever I go over bumps on the road. My drivers seat kind of shifts as I’m braking sometimes. However it’s needed minimal repairs and has over 200,000 miles on it so I’ll take it, quirks and all!

Wish they still made them exactly like this!

I have NEVER owned a vehicle so long. Still love how it drives, the seats fit almost everyone's bodies (comfort and driving), headroom for even the tallest, drink holders in front of the shift lever instead of behind (My elbow knocks drinks over in other cars.), how the back seats fold absolutely FLAT without removing headrests, front seat folds flat for extra cargo or relaxing in the back and resting legs like on a footstool, even sleeping on long trips, extra heavy tinting of all rear windows for privacy and security, and especially live the extra wide rear hatch that makes it possible to haul a complete set of bedroom furniture for my little granddaughter.
