Highway gas mileage is decent.
I like the space offered and height off ground. The roof rack is nice. Gas mileage is decent. Just lacks seating for a growing family.

That it has 5-year warranty that is transferable to the next owner
I like the 5 year warranty. I don't like that the paint is peeling on all the door handles and both the front and rear badges and Kia doesn't care since it's out of warranty.

But a Kia and have minimal problems.
I have owned this SUV for around 5 years now. It has not had any problems other than the normal issues of war and treat sick as tires, battery, and maintenance. I would highly recommend this vehicle to others due to no issues have surfaced. With proper maintenance, these type of vehicles should last a long time.

Has plenty of interior room for 5 people and cargo.
It offers a very smooth comfortable ride, handles extremely well, has enough power, and still is good on gas usage. Easy getting in and out, roomy interior.

She's a trooper. My car has almost 200k miles and she is still going strong.
My car is very reliable and travels extremely well. It has almost 200k miles and she is still going strong. The only problems I have run into other than standard maintenance was when the hinges games off of hatchback glass during a vacation. This could not be fixed immediately and I had a hard time replacing the part.

The most important thing about my car is that it still works.
My car is white, 4 doors with black interior. I like that it's a compact suv, and easy to drive. I don't like that it feels like it's made of plastic.

This car has been a very reliable vehicle. It is starting to get older and have some wear and tear. Nothing too fancy, but gets the job done.

Has it's problems, but are all simple fixes.
It's a good car overall for how old it is. It does, however, have its mechanical problems. I've had to change the clock spring & had to get some things fixed due to recalls. The radio skips a lot, timing belt is a little annoying when it rains, it's the worst in the snow. I wish it could drive a little better, but I've had way worse cars. I just need to fix it up.

This car is the most reliable car I ever owned
Could be roomier. Great on gas. Have had it for 8 years without any repairs.

The trunk of the car is the best feature so much room in it to take it anywhere.
It takes a little longer to speed up than previous cars I have owned. It does not have air conditioning, and things in the car tend to break rather easily. For example, the driver side mirror is stuck open and will not close. One of the lights will not turn on. However, the car has a lot of space, but could use some more cup holders.

It has been super reliable. I have performed the most basic of general maintenance and the car is still performing like brand new.

Review of my Kia Sportage.
My Kia has been very reliable and only normal wear and tear problems. Comfortable ride. Just enough room in the inside. Came with a great warranty. Wish it had more updated features but they were not a option when I purchased car. Only downfall is too much road noise.

I have no complaints on my Kia. It is exactly what I want in a car. If I could continue to buy a 2009 Kia Sportage with minimal mileage, I would.
Riding in my car is a dream. The height of the car is just right as I can see ahead of me much better.

Small like a car with the benefits of an SUV.
I enjoy the compact size of the Sportage. I like having the advantage of four wheel drive without the bulkiness of an SUV or truck. My Sportage also came with a sunroof and heated seats which were added perks. Overall, I am pleased with how my Sportage has held up, with minor repairs over the years (less than $500). My vehicle has 50,000 miles on it.

It is missing most of the simple things in cars, like a key portal on trunk, no overheating gauge
No lock to get into the trunk so when the trunk won't open you're screwed. Goes through gas fast. Can't tell when the engine is overheating until it's too late since there is no sensor like most cars

Very reliable car! Lots of room!
My Kia Sportage is so comfy to drive. I have had some issues with it but not until it hit over 100, 000 miles. It is very reliable otherwise. It is safe to drive, easy to manage. It performs very well. The body still has no rust which is great for a 2009. The back seat has good legroom. The trunk has lots of room in it. I like that the back seats fold down.

That it seems to be reliable it's just the little things that are super annoying.
My car is reliable but the fact that I can only unlock it from the drivers side door is very irritating at times and the controls for the windows on my door only control my window or I can lock all the windows. Sometimes the passenger behind the driver's seat window will not go backup, then the visor on my side will not go all the way up. The cover for the sunglasses is gone. The light inside the car is blue as well as the license plate light.

The trunk window opens up in case you don't want to open the trunk itself.
I bought my car used and it's a pleasure to drive during the winter season. It's like having a mini SUV that's the right size for me. Maintenance wise the Kia Sportage can be a hassle. The alternator went and apparently it was under the engine... A lot of parts are under the engine and the mechanic has to take the engine out before doing what they need to do and that's time consuming. On the plus side, the car is high enough off of the ground so I can drive over road kill without worrying about scraping them under the car (live in the countryside.)

The way my car is built helps me stay safe. . It rides solid on the road.
The Kia Sportage sets up just a little higher than other cars on the road which means I am not blinded by oncoming lights. Mine does not have auto seat adjustments but the seats are easily adjusted. It looks good and is fairly easy to maintain its good looks and that is important to me at my advanced age. Parts are not too expensive for me and I really love the way it rides.

Inside out fall apart vehicle.
The car is a tight fit for larger people. There is no arm room in the front seat. Little things have gone wrong with the car, like the sun visor will not stay up and needs to be replaced. There is an overhead bin for putting sunglasses in, but it fell apart. One of the seat belts in the back seat has never worked. The car runs good, but things on the inside that make the car comfortable to use are falling apart rapidly.

The Kia Sportage is a great off-roading and family trip car.
My car is a Kia Sportage 2009 model. It has 4 wheel drive. It is white with black trim. It drives smoothly, is quiet, and the brakes are great. The fuel lasts a long time, especially at high speeds. Acceleration is a bit of an issue when going up a large hill or slowing down. There's large space throughout the car which makes for a long trips with a larger family and lots of luggage. Digital air and heat controls make it easier to control cold and heat settings. On the driver's side window controls for all windows, child lock for the windows, and doors.

Great car, hardy and reliable-good family car for backwoods fun!
I purchased my 2009 Kia Sportage used with about 100k miles on it. I've been driving it for 4 years now and completed very minimal maintenance (it probably deserved a few more oil changes than I gave it). Not once has it shown any issues mechanically. I have put a few sets of tires on but other than that, it has been the easiest car I've ever owned. It is FWD, and has gone through some places where no RWD vehicle of mine could go. It is roomy enough for a small SUV. Storage space in the back is decent, but I would like to have more. The headrests are the only thing I hate about the vehicle--the way they sit makes your head lean forward toward your lap, so I usually just leave them turned around backwards, but then to rest your head, you have to look up at the ceiling, which is annoying but not as bad as the alternative, or I sometimes just remove them altogether. Overall, I have been very impressed by the quality of vehicle I got at a very reasonable cost.

Easy to handle, good mileage, like sitting above traffic. Great visibility. Some road noise. Not a particularly smooth ride New transmission a couple years ago covered by Kia warranty, including a loaner! Kia offers the best warranty, got the extended warranty too

It does very well in the snow, but you have to fill up more often.
My car is really reliable. It looks good and holds up to whatever I give it. The only downfall I have is that it is a gas guzzler since it has a V8 engine. I have no problem with it in the winter because it has 4WD.

Love this car, especially heated seats in the winter.
Really have not any problems with this car, I really love this car, love the leather heated seats. And the sunroof, I do make sure I take it in for oil changes and a full inspection, would not want to drive another car, I am very comfortable in this car.
