Just the right size for all the things that I need.
I love my car, it is just the right size for all the things I need to get done. I can haul my dog around and all his stuff, all my kids. I do wish the gas mileage was better. But I like the style of my car, and I wish the new ones still reflected this type of SUV style.

It is a nice sporty looking SUV.
I think the Kia Sportage 2008 is a nice car. I haven't experienced any issues with it. I think it would be nice if it had 4 wheel drive but that would make the gas mileage worse, so it's also a benefit to not have 4 wheel drive. I think the car drives nicely, I just wish the speakers were a little better.

Being a 4 cylinder the acceleration isn't very good. The amount of space is good. The rear folding seats are great.
Would be better if it had more power than a 4 cylinder

This vehicle has been worth the loan I needed for it.
Car has been very reliable. I bought it used, and even though it is 8/9 years old it was very well kept and only has a few minor scrapes and dings.

It is reliable. I like the functionality of my car it is easy to get in and out of places.
I like the size of my car. I like that is is a compact SUV and has all the rugged elements to it. Something's seem to break off easily especially the parts made out of plastic.

I absolutely love my car! Always reliable and even though i bought it used with quite a few miles on it i've never had a problem with the car starting or working.
I bought the car used so it did have a couple scratches and dents on the outside of the vehicle. However it almost always runs fantastically. Earlier this summer i have to have a leak fixed and some belt replaced, just recently the radio has stopped working because of a few loose cables. But the car has never not started and i never worry about it not making it on long or short distance trips. Overall a wonderful car

Everything a single person like me who needs a car, truck, camper, etc.!
I really love the room it has in the back especially when the back seats are folded down! I would prefer that it was an automatic transmission but, it was all they had on the showroom floor that day! Now it has 225000 miles on it and is running great.

My Kia is silver with pretty big tires for snow. It has window guards.
I take my Kia on long trips. It has been from PA to FL, PA to OH a couple times, PA to IN when I moved and back and forth more than 10 times. Great gas mileage. Low maintenance. Durable. Great in the snow. I wish it had a better radio and speakers. It has over 150,000 miles and still runs with no issues.

It's a great first car ideal for someone who may be starting a family.
It has it's blind spots like every car but for someone with smaller stature it's hard to see sometimes. The size of the car is perfect not too big not too small. I wish it got better gas mileage!

It is fun and easy to drive. A great car for someone who doesn't want something with all the bells and whistles, but wants something dependable and uncomplicated.
I love the size (compact SUV). It's really fun and easy to drive with a great turn radius. It just feels GREAT driving it, whereas my first car drove like a truck and was much more difficult to drive. I didn't know driving didn't have to be so difficult (like with my first car) until I got this car; what a relief! It fits all my needs perfectly, without adding unnecessary bells and whistles that would have driven up the price. A small detail, but I love the hook it has for purses in the passenger side- very handy! I love the color of my vehicle (forest green) and the overall look of the car. I think it doesn't stand out too much so that I can be easily identified on the road if someone meant me harm, but I like that the look and color is still unique enough that I don't look like everyone else on the road. I love the shape and position of the drink holders. It does have really bad blind spots in my opinion, which I didn't realize until after I bought it. I also wish I could put my elbow on the arm rest while I'm driving like in other cars, but the armrest in the middle is too short. Overall I am very happy with it though.

One of the important things about our Kia is that it is gas efficient.
I like our vehicle because it is a nice size, big enough to sit comfortably and haul things but not so big that it takes over the road and is hard to drive.

That it is a truck body but a SUV. It rides wonderfully and is great in winter when there is snow.
I like that my vehicle is a heavier make and has a hatch in the back. I dislike that it has had multiple recalls and breaks tend to run out often. Parts are expensive because it is a Korean based brand and lots of times I have to compromise for generic parts.

accountCircle Alicia W on October 15, 2020
It looks small on the outside, but really has a ton of space on the inside - I've actually fit an entire loveseat in the back of my car with room to spare! I've moved several times, and it always helps me haul a ton of stuff.
I like the size and the height - I can see above most other vehicles during traffic. The seats in the back also fold down flat for tons of storage, which has come in handy so many times, I've lost count. Sometimes I wish I had some of the higher end amenities - remote car locks, leather seats, USB port, etc. But my car has taken good care of me these last several years, so I do like it.

Major electrical fault that cannot be pinpointed.
Bought a 2008 Kia Sportage Titan this year. (2020) for £2500. Not used a great deal because of Lockdown. (Incidentally, had cam belt replaced this summer). Starter motor failed in June; had it replaced. In August, car broke down in a carpark, failing to start. Starter motor had failed again. The garage replaced it for free, as the part was under warranty but three weeks ago, driving on the M5 to a funeral, the radio suddenly turned off and the car lost all electrical power; had about enough time to pull onto hard shoulder, before it stopped altogether. No electrics - I could not even put on hazard warning lights... Very, very frightening experience. Car has been under investigation now for 3 weeks. Tests say nothing wrong with battery or alternator. It has also been seen by a specialist car electrics garage; they can find nothing wrong after tests. And yet my usual garage has had to jump-start it three times during its' time there, and they had to stop me taking it home when they found it was about to destroy the starter motor again. My garage then took it to a local specialist car electrics garage. Tests showed nothing. My garage say, now, that all they can do is to replace the battery as a precaution, as tests show nothing, but they all agree, "there is something wrong with the electrics." I am deeply worried that this car could cut out again at any moment, causing a potential accident, or that we will have to find money, yet again, to replace yet another starter motor. I have googled and found that electrical problems seem to be an issue with this range of Kia Sportage. I will never buy another Kia after this.

Older vehicle issues, roomy, but not the first choice SUV.
It is old, it stalls, it uses too much gas, and the transmission slipping at times. Also makes strange noises when using ac or heater, like a belt not running well. It is roomy inside, has an awkward expensive tire size and I don't really like the color either. I inherited this vehicle via divorce, not my first choice.

The Kia Sportage is an overall reliable vehicle with an engine
I have a big Kia Sportage 2008 that my mom gifted me. I like this car because it sits higher up on the ground and I like cars that aren't low to the ground. When it runs it is kind of loud. But it starts up easily and I can rely on it to start up and go when I need to go somewhere. Parts of the window cover that came on the car have came off and flap at the wind. The brakes on the car are not the best, I have to press really hard to stop or slow down. The seats are fabric so they don't get as hot as leather seats would the summer. Some of the features include AC, passenger airbag, power locks and windows.

Door handles
Mechanical very Ok but in my 2 years of owning this car, my daughter and wife have accidentally broke 3 of the door handles and have had to replace them, must be weak and the driver’s interior handle is also very weak, the car is very loud when racing and you may not hear your radio unless it’s high on volume.

KnockSensor issues
Had a lot of engine problems when I bought it new with repeated knock sensor error codes. The Sportage is fun to drive with the 5 speed stick and front wheel drive and gets 25 mpg city and 30+ mpg on the freeway. It's peppy with the 140 hp 4 cylinder engine. It runs smooth, quiet. I like that it sits up high for a good view. Lots of acceleration power on the freeway for climbing mountain passes with the manual transmission. I like the exterior design and interior driver instrumentation. It holds a lot of cargo when vacationing.

The Kia Sportage is a great compact SUV.
My 2008 Kia Sportage has been a very reliable vehicle so far. I purchased it because it was very affordable and the ten year warranty is an excellent added bonus. It is a great compact SUV. If you do not need a monster SUV like an Explorer, navigator or escalade, this is a great option.

Pretty good - better than I expected.
I have had my Kia Sportage for over a year and put 30,000 miles on it due to long distance trips for work. Since I have had it I have not had any issues outside of regular maintenance. It drives well in most weather conditions and I love the compactness as I can park quite easily in most parking spaces. I have moved quite a bit and with the seats down I could fit half of my bedroom in the back. I even transported a queen size foam mattress in it. I love this car for all its standard features. It's quite comfortable for a short person like myself. The aesthetic of the car itself is also pretty good. I do not feel embarrassed running around in my red Kia.

That for the money, you can get a can that is fairly reliable. That they seem to be making improvements every year on the vehicle.
I like that it is a crossover so it is not as big as a full size SUV but is bigger than my car. It is just the right height to slide into without stepping up or stooping. It is enjoyable to drive. I do not like that the steering wheel cover started coming apart within a year and it has always produced a lot of smoke.

It has a manual transmission.
My 2008 Kia Sportage has a manual transmission. It is amazing! I love how smooth the gears are. They move effortlessly and the clutch catches midway which is best. The car is a crossover/SUV so, definitely a family car and it safe and reliable. 95, 000 miles & 4ever to go! I bought my car used at 36, 000 miles. No major issues with it personally. The biggest thing I had to repair were the brakes and rotors. The other was when a bolt got loose and tore up my timing belt. I really love my Kia Sportage and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Going to rose this baby into the ground and enjoy every minute of it.

Great vehicle!
This is the first SUV I've owned and I'm very pleased with it. I got it a little over a year ago, for a good price, and haven't had any problems with it. It has higher mileage, over 160,000 but runs great. I like the interior and have no issues with that. We had a very snowy, long, and cold winter 2018/2010 and it was very reliable though I keep it in my garage. It gets pretty decent gas mileage. It also has a lot of zip and is easy to handle. The only thing I don't like about it, is that it's not 4 wheel drive which would be come in handy sometimes. I'll probably drive it until I run it into the ground and if I have to get another vehicle, I'd definitely like to get another one or at least Kia.

My only real problem with this car is the stereo system, as there is no aux compatibility or Bluetooth due to the year of the car. I have to use CD or a plug in radio transmitter to play music from my phone. Other than that, this car has great miles-per-gallon, and I can fill the gas tank for about $40.

This is a very good vehicle, I have had no problems with it, I've owned it for five years now. It is very roomy, easy on gas, I just love this car. I drive it daily with no issues, highly recommend it to anyone looking for a car. It also has third row seating.

Great all-purpose vehicle in all kinds of weather!
We bought the car in southeast Arizona and drove from there to Fairbanks Alaska via the Alcan. The ride was very comfortable and had no problems. We were there 3 years and drove on snow, ice, mud,, and very bumpy dirt roads. It handled all very well. We drove from Alaska to Maryland with no problems. We have owned the car 8 years, kept up with the manufacturers maintenance recommendations and have no problems at all.

Great warranty and a reliable vehicle.
I haven't had any problems with my Kia Sportage. I bought it because of the great extended warranty and for the overall reliability. The Sportage lx is a basic model but comfortable. I will probably buy one with a few more upgrades the next time. I am happy with this vehicle.

Reliable. Decent gas mileage. Spacious. All in all wonderful.
Before my Kia Sportage, I drove a low sitting car. I much prefer the Sportage. It is spacious not only when it comes to seating space, but also trunk space as well. It got about 25, maybe a little more, miles to the gallon which is pretty decent for a smaller SUV. I have had little to no issues with the vehicle since I purchased it 2+ years ago. The interior is pleasant to the eye and comfortable. The A/C is a dream as well. It's easily the most reliable vehicle I have purchased to this day. I don't think there's anything I don't love about it. The factory radio is a little outdated, even for the car's time, but that's such a trivial feature and it can be replaced with something more up to date. All in all it is a very wonderful car.

The Kia Sportage is comfortable for long drives because of the seats and their reclining capability.
I like the look of my car. The seats are comfortable and the back seats recline. I don't like the tan interior. I enjoy everything else about my car. I wish it had an aux port or Bluetooth.

Only a couple frustrations
I have not had too many issues. The tires are not great at all in the winter and the back wiper blade is always broken and I don't replace it because it costs over 60.00 each time because they have to replace the whole part not just the blade.

It's a reliable car and good with gas.
It is the perfect size for my 3 person family for both around town and traveling. It has been reliable and not too expensive when it does need repairs. I wish it had a hitch, and an auxiliary port.
