2024 Kia Sportage Hybrid Consumer Reviews

Looks good. Uncomfortable, low power, and gas mileage is a farce. Some of the most uncomfortable seats I have ever sat in. KIA claims it will get 38 MPG city and highway, but 11,000 miles in it has averaged 30.1. I rented a non hybrid Nissan Rogue last weekend and it got over 36 mpg making me wonder why I wasted the money on a hybrid. Climate control will roast and then freeze you at the same temperature setting. We hate the radio too, only AM FM or phone pairing, that’s it. For a base model that is well into the mid 30k price range, I regret not getting a Honda, Toyota, or Nissan.

Love.. I’ve previously driven suv Lexus rx350, as well experience with fast car, 911 Porsche.. I like sportage Over Lexus, prefer the ride and handling of this vehicle..sportage has responsive soft ride..cabin is quiet..respectable (quick ) response when asked, it’s not a race car… Get Great options/accessory’s for price point..at mid trim levels…all the safety features usually find in higher trims other brands…great safety ratings… Great head & leg room for rear passengers… great amount of rear storage… Interior nice with soft touches..huge dash screen that is responsive without any glitches or hesitation…with many options/settings… Cons:::none

Bought this car brand new from the dealership 2 years ago and it has already been in the shop 4 different times for breaking down/ injectors going bad. In the process right now of getting it lemoned for it recently breaking down in the middle of the interstate and service department not knowing what’s wrong with it. Pretty car, but don’t judge a book by its cover.

The Kia Sportage is great to look at! The engine is just too small for the size of vehicle. It is gutless... I took my car into the dealership thinking there had to be something wrong with it. Nope, the mechanic told me to turn off my auto hold (keeps the break on while stopped) and every time I start the car to turn off the auto shut-off. These "features" are causing the vehicle to lag! What a joke.. The finish on the interior door handles is pealing off and sliced my husbands finger as he was getting out. ANY smell from outside immediate comes into the cab and chokes us out to the point of having to roll the windows down to clear the air. This car is my biggest vehicle purchase regret. Unless they make some serious changes, I will not be buying another KIA again.

We love our new Sportage Hybrid EX It is peppy, has good MPG (not seeing EPA est yet tho), it's roomy, with good quality build. We have owned every top rated brand (the wife and I even met selling Hondas together), so we know a good car when we see one. You can't go wrong with this choice. Just go hybrid for the extra oomph!

ALBI Kia St-Eustache sold us a new 2023 Kia Sportage Plug-in Hybrid, but it turned out to be a lemon. Six months after purchasing the car, the battery broke down, and as of today, October 10, 2024, it still hasn’t been fixed because they said the battery is on backorder.

The Kia Sportage rides exceptionally smooth for an SUV and has a ton of safety features, like blind spot warnings, reverse collision detection, and lane keep assist. The materials and seating looks and feels higher end.

We rented this or a 2024 while on vacation in Colorado. It’s a good looking car with some cool features. We must have had the low end model because it didn’t have lane assist or blind spot warning. The blind spot warning would be helpful because there are major blind spots, making it hard to change lanes, right or left. It was brutal for me. If there is an option for a bigger engine, get it. The one we had was gutless. The only thing that happened when you stepped on the gas was the engine made more noise, even in sport mode. Shifting was quite jerky and the handling was not great. To top it off there was no sunglasses holder. So, needless to say I would never rent this vehicle again and for sure never purchase it.
