4,627 Used Kia Sportage cars for sale

More than 25 years after the first Sportage, Kia gave it a massive upgrade, making it better in traffic and busy urban streets. Starting with the boomerang lighting integrated into the tiger-nosed grille, the new Sportage looks extremely modern and sophisticated.

In the cabin, there's a wider digital instrument panel and a larger infotainment centre for easy viewing. The transmission dial takes the shifter out of the equation and streamlines the interior. It's also easy to customise the look with black/metal wood trim, quilted interiors and sage green accents.

Quality went up a further notch on the fourth-generation Sportage, and many more interior features were offered. A new look gave it an elegant appeal but retained its original sporty nature. High-mounted seats offered more legroom to rear passengers, and the available open glass roof created a whole new interior experience.

A 2018 refresh focused heavily on the exterior design with updated bumpers, new lamps and stylish alloy wheels in a variety of sizes. Kia also released a hybrid variant, giving buyers the ability to opt for a lower-emission vehicle.

Significant changes came with the third-generation Sportage as it moved away from being an off-road to more of an on-road vehicle. A 'tiger-nose' grille and headlight design were released with perfectly styled lines to make it stand out. The big boot space and room for five made it more desirable to families.

During a 2013 refresh, the Sportage was made to look even more powerful, with available Xenon headlights and big 18-inch wheels. In the cabin, all models received Bluetooth and high-tech equipment that kept the SUV up to date with the competition.
