Kia Sportage 2018

Sitting as one of the highly ranked crossover SUVs, the 2018 Kia Sportage is comparable to the Hyundai Tucson. Even though it may not be the best in all aspects, it does serve as a good choice for a family SUV. From its square-shaped predecessor back in the 1990s, the Sportage has continuously evolved until its current stunning, fourth generation model.

Looking past its odd frontal look, you may find that the Sportage's design is uniquely bold and sporty. It gives more focus to the driver's position with its taller front end. The sporty look is owed to the outer positioning of the wheels and deeper sculpting on the body of the vehicle, not to mention its futuristic-looking headlights. The 2018 Kia Sportage measures 4.48 meters long, 1.855 meters wide, and 1.655 meters high. It has a body-colored bumper and starts with 17-inch alloy wheels in its more affordable variant.

The 2018 Sportage is longer than its earlier version to allow more space, particularly to back seat passengers. It can carry 5 passengers and has a 739-liter luggage capacity. The back seats can also be folded if you need more space. Another one of the most notable differences with this latest version is the further reduction of NVH, which gives it a more premium feel.
