If you need the all-wheel-drive capability and high ground clearance of a compact SUV, but you don't want to give up sporty handling or head-turning good looks, we think the 2013 Kia Sportage is d
If maximum interior space, a smooth ride and good 360-degree visibility are important factors in your car-buying decision, the 2013 Kia Sportage probably won't float your boat. Best look to a Suba
The 2013 Kia Sportage's taut suspension and powerful engine choices put the "sport" in Sport Utility Vehicle. Compared with its nearest competitors, the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4, the 2013 Kia Sportage SUV rides a bit stiffer, but delivers better cornering and recovery from sharp dips in the road.

"I've had this car for about a year and a half and had absolutely no problems with it. It runs very smoothly, and has great control. It has a nice tight turning radius which is nice in small spaces. It's very roomy inside. I'm pretty tall and fit very comfortably in any seat, front or back. There's plenty of room inside to carry large items around, especially with the rear seats folded down. Kia has come a long way, and this is a very reliable car. It looks nice, and even seems to stay looking cleaner longer. It comes with a lot of extras that you'd pay extra for in other vehicles. I've driven several other similar vehicles in the price range and even some more pricey cars and still prefer my Sportage."
