The Sportage is such a great package. Even the so-called 'entry level' LX model is so well kitted out, and such a dream to drive. Thanks for the video, Julez! Xx
Not a KIA fan but this model is very striking ! Pity about the motorbike sized engine - nothing less than 2 liter for me thank you very much… On a different note- you lose up to 100 hair a day, and obviously it gets replaced, so they are not broken ! Also, us animals lose hair before winter to push out a fresh winter coat to keep us warm. Kapish ? Ps. I do enjoy your reviews - its fun 😂
At the end of the day, this is the question. If I had R700k, what would I buy? Assuming the family SUV segment. My answer is a one year Volvo XC40. Premium product, motorplan, a guaranteed future value and a brand that sets the benchmark for safety.
615k-817k for a front wheel drive,1.6l turbodiesel crossover that pushes out 100kw 320nm? Kia ís insane. I owned a Ford Focus TDCi Hatchback during 2006 that pushed out those power figures for 180k.
If I had the money then I would most certainly buy a Kia. Their cars are constantly improving and I love it. Hopefully we will see the Kia K5 sometime soon because that is a beauty.
I want to disclose. My company rent Kia SUV and we stopped due to engine problems and utter poor after service. The company completely stopped doing business with them. 47 Kia cars, 9 engine problems
Great review !! BRILLIANT & congrats with your accurate call 🏆🎖👌✨ Personally I don't understand how it could win though 🧐🤔..?? There is SO MUCH BETTER other cars available covering ALL items required & SO MUCH MORE VALUE in ALL aspects. Sure there are worse than this, but also SO MUCH BETTER 😉👍🏆🎖✨ Best 👍✨
I like the car but eish if had one, it would be like i am using my mam's car and the sad thing is my mom can't drive never mind owning one😭😭😭😭...Good news I am not on the market list
I test drove kia sportage and it is underpowered. Tiggo 8 Pro max and H6 have more power than it, and there is no much difference in quality between 3 vehicles. I think the sportage can be superior and do much more better with more power.
Buy yourself a BMW E39 station wagon and spend R100,000 on it, you can even buy an android radio thing. You will save R450,000 and you will have a much, much nicer car.
Its bigger for the soccer run than a Crosstrek but only 10% as capable outdoors. I know Kia does not last if used on dirt roads much either where as the Subie eats it up all day long. People are like magpies.
I have the GT Line, and I love getting into my car every day. Also has a great service plan and warranty. No regrets.
I love your reviews. Straight to the point and brutally honest opinion.
Some of prettiest cars out there.

I'd still choose a Tiggo 8 pro max or Haval h6 hev over this🙈
Tiggo 8 pro max owner here, and I concur.
My wife wants me to get her this though - I don't get it 😅
@@Boutit031 its really not worth it, especially with those power figures😅
The pricing isn't great. You can get alot more for this type of money.
Like always price is the killer factor😢
I mean i could be getting the kids done for school but here i am..😅
hahahaha
Sportage is such a good car. I think Kia/Hyundai are the Toyota of the 90's - lots of value and good reliability at a good price.
100% agreed!
I second you

I think across the board, most new cars are a nightmare. The cost cutting has become extreme.
Which country, which model, which engine?
Not in South Africa
@@lesediseemela9856 Nelspruit is one of them. The worst. Yes I am South Africa. The place of the Kant
@@mvubu6823 are you working for Kia?
One thing I've realised about you is that you get annoyed easily 😂😂
Great review !!

I'd choose Sportage over its cousin.

Don't be dom
I don't llike the exterior, only the interior
It looks ugly. Damn
The problem that I have with the car is the engine 1.6😢😢. But besides the is a great car
THE PIXIES - love it!
SPORTAGE does all the things it says on the box.
I see the road rage has subsided quite a lot eh Juliet?
Beautiful. But what happened to 2l engines????😢
Haha... Juliet giving away her age rocking to The Pixies 😀🎶💛
How did it beat the Subaru?
Its bigger for the soccer run than a Crosstrek but only 10% as capable outdoors. I know Kia does not last if used on dirt roads much either where as the Subie eats it up all day long. People are like magpies.
I wish I could get to drive a new car every couple of weeks 😂
