This was the best review of the Sportage I have ever watched. Keep up the good work.
Absolute right
the best review of the kia sportage so far, infact i just got one for myself. same colour and im loving it.
Wonderful, in-depth video. I'm looking into this vehicle and your video helped a lot. I'm looking forward to my test drive!
Thank you Mike for such a thorough detailed explanation on this awesome Kia Sportage EX!! Drives like a dream!!
I’m looking at 2017’s now and man! This was amazingly in depth! Thank you!
Great review. You do a fantastic job of showing off the car and its many features.
Thanks for a great and detailed review. I’m actually currently looking at 2017/2018 models. They are ranging from 16-20k depending on mileage in SoCal.
My sister has a Forte that’s about 5 years old with 100k on it and it’s been a problem free car. People sleep on kia sometimes, but they’ve come a long way. These also look better than a rav 4 or cr-v in my opinion.
Cheers
Spare tire is an option on the Sportage.
Make sure it's included in the package when you buy.
Really good, interesting and informative video without being boring. Good work Mike. I'm looking at 2016 used Sportage EX and found your video of great help. Thanks so much
Dido from me I am looking for a 2017 used car and this is a good user video with those learning curve details you need to drive the car, well done .
I just picked up a 2017 sx turbo. Its a very nice car couldn't be happier.
Excellent review! I have two Kia’s here in Australia, a Soul and a Sportage, each in its 5th year of ownership, with collectively 100,000 fault free miles between them. I am about to upgrade to a new Sportage GT-Line model with the 2.0 turbo diesel. Kia is fast earning a reputation for producing highly quality, innovative and uniquely designed product, Peter Schreyer (ex-Audi designer) has helped move the brand to top of the pack. Full marks!
Nice work, +MikesCarInfo! I would love a review as detailed as this one, but about the driving, mechanics, performance and security aspects of this Sportage. :)
The more I look at the front the more it looks like a middle aged man with a mustache... I love it
Excellent work Mike!!! Kia is making really nice vehicles!

Thank you for the tour of the EX. My mom has a 2014 lx model and hopefully she'll upgrade to this one!
Very well done... changed my view of Kia
Great review Mike! When are you doing a review on your challenger?
More info: www.myrtlebeachkia.net/new-cars/2017-kia-sportage-ex-fwd-vid2642074/detail/
Excellent! best detail coverage, Good job.
On a side note, Kia added blind spot monitor standard on 2018 Sportage EX trim.
That is one good looking car. I own a 2016 Kia Soul but I need something bigger now.
My dream Korean SUV! Awesome job bro.
Great video and very thorough.
Hey Mike,great review. 👍
So it doesnt have a trunk release on the inside of it? I wish I could see the trunk open from the remote at least
Great video! The Sportage looks alot better over its predecessor. It looks a lot more bold and stylistic. Now, I think, it will be able to really hold its own it the ever so growing CUV segment.
Also, do they have the 2017 Kia Cadenza on dealers lots yet? If they do can you do a video of one? I like the overall design that Kia is going towards with their current vehicles and I cannot wait to see you give more in-depth looks of some more of Kia's products. Like always, keep up the great work!

Great video Mike! Have you asked them if you can do a K900? I would really enjoy your review of that!
+Xavier Urbina Yeah those are amazing. Can't wait :)
Great review
Do a review of the 2020 Kia Sportage SX Turbo please.
Here is my Kia experience. Anyone in my position has encountered the same thing from Kia. If you cannot supply them with up to date maintenance records on your vehicle they will not cover it. So for instance, if you change your own oil you're screwed. Might work if you saved all your receipts but very few people are in the habit of saving receipts of them doing their own oil changes. This ploy Kia uses is well documented if you want to look it up, I have, and it’s out there. Also my car would be covered under the SC147 recall as the symptoms of my engine seizing up (engine needs replaced) followed the exact same symptomology as those the manufacturing defect notes in the recall. The recall notice even appears on my Carfax report. Again you can find all the recall information online. The reason my car isn't part of the SC147 recall according to Kia is because it is MPI instead of GDI. All the rest of the engine is the exact same, 2.4L theta II. Kia says that because my car uses a different kind of fuel injection method that it cannot be affected by the metal filings left in the engine block which is what the SC147 recall is all about. That's totally absurd on its face but that's Kia's position. The vehicles Kia did recall was done after many government threats as well as numerous lawsuits brought by disgruntled Kia owners for which there are many. Kia's mother company, Hyundai actually recalled their vehicles for the same problem immediately when the issue was discovered. It took Kia several years later to admit to the problem and issue a recall even though they were well aware of the problem. Where was Kia's concern for people being killed due to this manufacturing defect? A car having its engine seize up on the interstate would be something that would concern most companies immediately but not Kia. Unless Kia completely changes the way it does business they will continue to cost consumers thousands of dollars for defective cars and probably end up killing people due to their own negligence. I had to argue, write emails, file complaints with various entities, etc just to get Kia to actually LOOK at my engine at no cost to me to determine the how and why of the engine failure. Kia refused to cover my car even though it is under warranty and furthermore refused to even LOOK at my car to see what caused the failure. I'm still waiting for a callback from Kia with their assessment. Kia actually agreed to take my valve cover off to take a look at my car once I complained as high up as I could to Kia. This was after several months of my car sitting dead on the Auffenberg Kia lot in Metro east St Louis. Kia actually told me I'd have to pay $1500 up front to have my engine failure looked into initially. My constant pressure on Kia finally got them to say they would take my valve cover off for no fee which costs Kia less than $50 in labor. Kia had no desire whatsoever to know what caused my engine to seize up. Their ONLY concern was to avoid any acknowledgement of any responsibility or liability. Kia already knew what caused the engine to fail. The same thing that happened to hundreds of thousands of the same engines made by Kia and Hyundai. It was the exact same problem as the Kia SC147 recall. Taking the valve cover off will not help. There was no oil leak. No oil smell. Never any indication of any problem with the valve cover. It's simply a ploy for Kia to say we looked at your engine and it's your fault. Who would trust their assessment at this point anyway? I'm out thousands of dollars I still owe on a car without a working engine. Don't you think any car maker worth a darn would want to know why one of their vehicles engines just seized up on the highway? Kia's been super lucky so far no one has died due to their negligence. Additionally a co-worker of mine had a problem with his Kia and will not buy one again either. For his Kia the car required a specific oil filter made and installed by Kia and if that was not used the engine fails. He was never told this when he purchased the vehicle. His insurance successfully sued Kia for over $7,000 for his engine failure. Unfortunately my insurance doesn't cover mechanical issues. Ever wonder why your Kia never quite gets the gas mileage it was rated to get? Kia has also paid out for a class action lawsuit because they lied about the MPG of many of their models. The very MPG rating that many people base a large percentage of their purchase decision on. Yeah, Kia lied about that too but kept it hush hush. You can find the information online if you look for it. I had my car into the dealership (Auffenberg) several times before the engine failure telling them something is bad wrong with the car. The Kia service department ran every kind of computer diagnostic and could find no reason for the problems which included knocking, major loss of power, major loss of fuel economy and car dying at both idle and speed. Check engine light was always on and every sensor it said was malfunctioning was replaced and it didn't help. Unfortunately I could not leave my car with Kia. Kia wouldn't supply me with a free rental. They said it was against company policy. My step daughter was dying needing a second liver transplant as all this was going on and I couldn't be without that vehicle. With only one vehicle (other than the Kia) I wouldn't be able to get to work or my step daughter wouldn't be able to be cared for properly. I told Kia this and still they refused to get me a rental while they actually got to the root of my car problem and addressed it. Instead they said sorry to hear that, we can't find any problem with your car. They actually let me leave with a car they KNEW was dangerous and about to fail. They didn't care that my family was going through a serious medical situation with my step daughter and the car behaving as it was only increased the stress on my entire family during this time. Fortunately my step daughter got her transplant just in time and is doing ok now. Not only did Kia sell me a defective product but all this happened as our family is going through the stress of a child being deathly ill, lots of additional costs for medical related expenses and Kia was told this and didn't care. Kia added thousands of dollars to my already stressed finances by selling me a defective vehicle. But it gets even better. The Kia rep in Arizona named Steve that handles my case and many others actually told me on the phone that some of Kia's cars die early and that's just the way it is. He insisted all other car manufacturers have the same problem and also refuse to repair the vehicles leaving their customers screwed too. That's certainly not my experience nor that of anyone I know. Steve at Kia flat out told me Kia isn't going to pay and I'm out of luck because I got a bad Kia and have to eat it. That's what he said. That's Kia’s customer service that said that to me. I have to shake my head and laugh every time I call Kia and their recording says "Rated #1 in initial quality 2 years in a row!" Yeah, and dies in 78,000 miles and Kia refuses to make a full recall or honor it's warranty. You won't see Kia winning any customer service awards or vehicle longevity awards. My advice to anyone that has a Kia (ESPECIALLY if it's a 2.4L) is to trade it in and get something other than a Kia before it dies and your left paying off a car that doesn't run. I liked Kia at one time or I wouldn't have bought one. What I've found out since has opened my eyes to the quality of their vehicles and their denials of their own manufacturing defects even if it could cost lives or severely screw consumers over financially. Buying a Kia might make you think you're getting more quality for less money but it's all based upon lies and cover-ups. That is my Kia experience and it's the WORST experience I've had with any company on any level at any time in my 31 (47 - 16) years of driving cars.
Thank you for sharing your experience Darren.
actually, I had a little 2009 Sportage which I drove for almost 10 yrs adn other than replacing brake pads after a few years and the Cd player going, never had an issue. It drove nicely on the highway , accelerated well enough, drive was comfortable and fairly quiet.......no complaints at all other than that little girl grew outdated, hence, depreciated. As for the quality, suggest you check the following out; Kia brought in world class engineers including one very famous gent, Peter something - from Audi and BMW and the Korean product is now outclassing the Japanese in reliability, road tests, safety etc......my neighbor bought a BMW about a year ago, had it in the garage twice. I also have driven Lexus SUV, recently chose another Kia Sportage EX so we shall see. Any vehicle can have issues. www.forbes.com/sites/davidkiley5/2018/06/20/man-bites-dog-korean-brands-genesis-kia-and-hyundai-top-quality-rankings/#4aba2a0c23e5 www.wardsauto.com/technology/kia-hyundai-surpass-japanese-brands-initial-quality www.wsj.com/articles/kia-tops-car-quality-survey-1466614802 www.autonews.com/sales/genesis-kia-hyundai-again-rank-highest-jd-power-quality-scorecard
i like the color with black wheels
Lol for some reason I thought I was watching a video on the Sorento and was very confused as to why the vehicle looked as it did. Took me about 10 minutes to figure out I was looking at the wrong video
Excellent
can you please make a tour of your new car
Anyone know what's changed on the 2020? thanks
Want to see wbere turbo is located
I'm confused! Where is the CD player? That is very important.
Make one for the sx turbo Trim Level
Does this compare to a Murano?
Are you considering doing a video of the Kia Forte as well?
Yes :)
Cmt savoir marché le carteur de frain
How tall are you mike? Im wondering what kind of leg room a 6’3 person would have?
I am 6' and I have to put the seat all the way back.
I'm stuck between this car and 2017 Hyundai Tucson. Idk what to do 😥help
The kia is far better than the Hyundai even though kia is the parent company to Hyundai.
Mike can you please tell mw how this car did on gas if u drove it for a week? thanks
LucasPictures1 not great gas mileage. They get avg about 23 mpg
Hey :) thinking of doing the K900? :) thanks :)
Yeah those are amazing. Can't wait :)
you can do a 2017 Honda Civic
Very nice review.
ok
2017 Lincoln MKZ !!
The horn sounds horrible
Chevy Fan that’s only the alarm horn but when you use the horn in the steering wheel, it’s different and it’s loud !!
this doesnt even have parking sensors
I believe the higher up trim level does, but I'm not 100% sure
wtf? Think viewers might want to know mpg on this vehicle?
Read description
N
You didn't drive it! Duh!!
Kia vehicle engines are known to only last 78,000 miles. This I'm told from a Kia represenative.
www.kia.com/us/en/content/owners/warranty
60,000 engine warranty. Like I said they die at around 78,000 miles. No warranty. I guess you're either saying you don't know what you're talking about or like Kia says it is totally normal to replace the engine after 60,000 miles.
10-year/100,000 mile limited powertrain warranty (powertrain includes engine).
Since you are disseminating so much false information on my videos please provide links to support your claims in the future.
You really are fucking stupid. Shit you've been eating the shit Kia has been feeding you. You've been brainwashed by a freaking auto manufacturer. That's sad. Powertrain includes the engine. What a douche bag!
can you please make a tour of your new car
Yes I plan to soon :)
2017 Lincoln MKZ !!
