Up for sale is my 2008 Kia Sportage LX 2WD powered by a 140-horsepower, 2.0L four-cylinder engine and a four-speed automatic transmission.  I think this is a great little car to zip around town and yet hauls a surprising amount in the rear cargo area.  This is an extremely reliable car.  I purchased it when it was 4 months old and it had less than 4,000 miles when I bought it.  As you can see it has about 38,000 miles on it now.  Nothing has gone wrong with this car in the over 4 years I have owned it and nothing is wrong with the car now.  I have had the normal maintenance done (yearly Oil Changes and Air Filters when called for).  I have all maintenance records.  Never been smoked in and never been in an accident.  Four new Hankook tires at 32,000 miles so you won’t have to worry about tires for a long time.  The body and interior is excellent.  Only one small door ding on the entire car (right rear fender, in pictures) but you will be hard pressed to see it.  You will not find a 2008 Kia in better condition.  This is a great car and is a perfect small SUV for a family and light hauler.  Though not the most powerful car you can buy, it is very smooth and drivable at interstate highway speeds.  Not a lot of fancy electronics and gadgets, just a reliable and practical transportation vehicle.

 

The Sportage has fuel economy ratings of 20 mpg city, 25 highway.  Very inexpensive to own and maintain.  Normal maintenance is just the usual oil change every 7,500 miles or every year.

Four-wheel independent suspension for crisp handling on the road, yet long wheel travel and good ground clearance allows it to have some measure of off-road ability.  Inside, the Sportage has space for five adults, with a "Drop & Fold" rear seat that folds down completely, allowing a flat, expanded cargo floor. A fold-flat front passenger seat also helps with especially long loads, or as a work table for the driver when parked. Both of the front seats can be reclined all the way back to meet the rear cushions. With the back seat folded, the Sportage has a cargo capacity of nearly 67 cubic feet.  The rear cargo area also includes an under-floor cargo tray and tie-down anchors built into the floor.  The rear hatch can be opened fully or just the rear window can be opened separately for loading groceries or other small items.  Other interior extras include a center console with a two-stage tray, a lockable glovebox, map and cup holders for all doors, and a rear-seat central armrest.  The Sportage includes standard roof rails with adjustable cross racks, cruise control, power windows and mirrors, and a CD sound system.  Front seat-mounted side air bags, full-length side curtain bags, four-wheel disc brakes with anti-lock, and electronic stability control are all on the standard-features.  The Sportage includes a power train warranty for ten years or 100,000 miles.

Kia teases e-AWD Trail'ster concept ahead of Chicago

Thu, Feb 5 2015

Last week, Kia dropped a teaser on our heads of a new concept it would be bringing to the Chicago Auto Show. Now it's revealed another view, and this time it's revealed the name, as well. The new concept is dubbed the Trail'ster, and it's essentially a turbocharged Soul with an electric all-wheel drive system, a retractable canvas roof and a rugged design. The shot above (depicting the back three-quarters angle from low on the ground) doesn't show us much more than the previous side shot of the nose, but as you can see, the round light theme continues around back, with lower body cladding, underbody protection panels and red-trimmed, five-hole wheels wearing chunky rubber. We'll have to hold on to find out more, but from what we've seen so far, our level of interest is officially piqued. Kia to Bring Electric All-Wheel Drive Trail'ster to Chicago Aligning form and function to conceive a uniquely compelling vehicle for the city-dweller-turned- outdoor-adventurer, Kia Motors America will take the wraps off the rugged Trail'ster e-AWD concept at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show. With its bold design, fully retractable canvas roof and smartly integrated rear electric all-wheel drive system, the turbocharged Trail'ster takes Kia's iconic Soul to a new level of expression, efficiency and capability. The Kia Trail'ster concept will be unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on Thursday, February 12, at 9 a.m. CT.

Hyundai, Kia launching dedicated hybrids in 2017

Mon, Aug 10 2015

The currently weak green car market isn't stopping Hyundai and Kia from staging an ongoing electrified onslaught, and it's primed to just keep growing. Already familiar with the field thanks to vehicles like the Sonata Hybrid, Tucson Fuel Cell, and Kia Soul EV, for the 2017 model year the Korean siblings are launching their first dedicated hybrids, according to Automotive News. Since last year, the hybrids have been spotted testing several times while wearing heavy camouflage. Hyundai's version will reportedly be styled as a Chevrolet Volt-fighting sedan. Conversely, Kia will go for a more directly Prius-challenging hatchback. Underneath, they'll share a powertrain consisting of a direct-injected, 1.6-liter four-cylinder and electric motor. Both will use the same platform based on the next-gen Elantra and Forte, according to Automotive News. In addition, Hyundai will get a pure EV version of its model to launch in California in 2017, while Kia reportedly won't. According to Automotive News, the companies' strategy is reportedly to be ready when gas prices eventually rise again. "When they come back up and people start looking for hybrids again, it'll be very nice to be able to give buyers an option besides just the Prius," said Adam Kraushaar, president of a New Jersey Hyundai dealer. Further complimenting the electrified plans, a plug-in version of the Kia Optima Hybrid is also reportedly on the way. With its launch, the two brands would have a total of nine hybrid, EV or fuel cell vehicles on offer by the 2018 model year.

2014 Kia Sportage facelift arrives with updated 2.4L, new grille

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

The third-generation Sportage has been around for a few years now, but Kia is making some minor changes to its compact crossover for 2014. As expected with a small, mid-cycle refresh, there isn't anything too major to report here, but the important news for the 2014 Sportage involves what's behind that modestly updated fascia.
Kia has revamped the Sportage's base 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine to add direct injection, which is said to improve efficiency, although no fuel economy numbers have been released yet. Switching to DI has also increased the engine's output, up slightly from 176 horsepower and 168 pound-feet of torque in 2013 to 182 hp and 178 lb-ft for 2014. Additionally, LX models now receive the sportier shock setup previously available only on EX and SX trims.
More importantly, the base trim level has been dropped from the 2014 Sportage lineup, meaning the car's manual transmission has been axed, as well. Pricing hasn't been released yet, but the 2013 Sportage already undercut competitors like the Chevy Equinox and Toyota RAV4 by thousands of dollars, so even a modest increase for 2014 would still position the Kia rather nicely in the segment.
