These cars last a long time. It is fun to drive and is good on gas. I like the way it looks and I love the features. It has a lot of cargo space and handles very well. It was a good deal with a 3 month warranty from the dealer.
My 2013 Kia Sportage is nice looking; has fairly good storage space in the rear; has easy maneuverability in traffic. It has good brakes and a decent audio system. The mileage is decent for mostly city driving, but improves when doing long-distance highway driving.
I love that this vehicle has a sunroof, heated/cooling seats, Bluetooth/aux, leather seats, backup camera, good mpg, and good safety ratings. It was decently priced for a 2013. It has remained a good, reliable vehicle to drive. It is the perfect small SUV because I feel like it is high enough off the ground and big enough to survive a crash. The size and backup camera also allow for easy parking.
The car is very comfortable and reliable. It gets excellent gas mileage for a turbo. The hands free system is user friendly. I love the color (red). This car handles well when initiating turbo. I love the driver's side seat cooler/warmer.
It is not all wheel drive, it has a lot of miles, my interest rate is high, the steering is not tight and the interior is not my first pick in a color. I do not have blind side features, trunk release or lane change assist.
I would like to get better mileage on my 2013 Kia Sportage. I also would have liked adjustable heating in the rear-seat area. I would have also liked sound system speakers in the rear that could be controlled from the rear seats.
I am not sure if it is true with every 2013 Kia Sportage, but mine seems to have a weak windshield. A rock hit the corner while I was driving and cracked the window immediately. I also have a hard time adjusting the rear view mirror. The Bluetooth usually takes a while to connect.
The original tires were terrible and had to replace them shortly after buying the car. The front windshield wipers needed to be replaced shortly after purchasing the car. The seatbelt for the back middle is difficult to attach and unattach.
The 2013 Kia Sportage has an average owner rating of 4.39 out of 5 which ranks it #9 of 24 other Compact SUVs.
