Re: 2011 Sportage Turbo [maringa]
Test drove it two weeks ago and again last night and today and decided to buy it. They had to hunt down the silver one for me but should have it Monday night. I loved it, the engine is super quick and very impressed. I still can't believe I just bought a KIA.

Just picked up a new LX awd Sportage. About 150 miles on it so far. White with the black trim. So far so good. Only negative would be the radio sound quality. I may jsut have to fix the settings. Leased from Quirk Kia in Ma no high pressure did most of the work via email. FRank

Re: 2800 miles and what I would like to see from Kia [regy65]
How about the rear visibility ? Drove behind a 2011 Sportage yesterday... The smallness of the rear window... made be think of an armored car ! Window seemed small and very high up... Can you actually see what is behind you?

Re: 2011 Sportage v. Sorento v. 5door Forte [regy65]
New Intake manifold? Same design or is there an update to the design? Do you find the the front seats comfortable? Like I said the Florida rental nearly ruined me for even looking at a Sportage. Hopefully 2011's are an improvement. Overall from what I see on the road Hyundais and Kia are developing quite a following. 22 city probably means 25 or so for the highway... a bit lower than ...

2011 Sportage v. Sorento v. 5door Forte
I have looked at Sportages for a number of years. Last year I rented one while in Florida and was horribly disappointed. Probably a 2009 Model... it had awful headrests that I could never get adjusted and a very discouraging 6-18 mpg. Now that the 2011's are out I need some info regarding mpg and general impressions. The first 2011 Sportage I saw had 3 headrests across the rear seating and ... Read More

How much did you pay for your KIA Sportage 2011?
Hello Sportage Owners, Hope you can share with us, how much did you pay for your KIA Sportage 2011? like the trim level, package(s) you pick? Did you pay below, or above your MSRP? or the sticker prices on the windows :) Thanks

I don't know about you all...
but this has got to be about the best looking SUV I've ever seen. My wife and I owned a 2001 Kia Sportage 4X4 and it was solid and built like a tank, yet it was still fun to drive with the 5-speed stick. But Kia has progressed to being more of a world-class automobile manufacturer since 2001 and this new Sportage is in a class above the old "Jeep/Army" looking ... Read More

Re: what am I leaving on the table... [scan2]
I think 394 a month is a pretty good deal considering you're putting nothing down. I am also trying to lease the 2011 Kia Sportage EX AWD with the premium leather package. I've been offering to put down $3,000 and the best they've given me so far is $350 a month. I'm about to go to another dealership and see what they say. Really and truly I'm trying to get my ...

Re: Kia Sportage 2011 Turbo [radiowc]
I think the existing 176hp is not really strong as compare to others similar cuv with the same in-line four cylinders like Chevy Equinox, GMC terrain, etc. They all get at least close to 200hp don't underrate the 2.4L you need to check out the weights of the Equinox and Terrain (3761 - 4203 lbs) with a base 2.4L engine at 182hp. The Sportage maybe 176hp but its weight is 3157 ... Read More

what am I leaving on the table...

Re: Kia Sportage 2011 Turbo [lok888]
Thanks... me too, I am really looking forward for the Sportage SX too. I think the existing 176hp is not really strong as compare to others similar cuv with the same in-line four cylinders like Chevy Equinox, GMC terrain, etc. They all get at least close to 200hp. Of course if you talked about pricing and value, Sportage/Tuscon beat them all. Have to wait until Jan 2011, it likes 5 years ... Read More

Leather seats but NO sunroof?
I'm considering a 2011 Kia Sportage. I want leather seats but do NOT want a sunroof. I keep my cars a long time (10 and more years) and fear the sunroof will leak in later years of ownership. Besides, I have a history of skin cancer and just wouldn't use a sunroof. From building a Sportage on the Kia website, if I want leather, I must take the sunroof. Do you ... Read More

2.0T out this year? I hope so, but don't think so...
I don't know what to believe anymore... Please tell me that Autoweek got the dates wrong for the Optima. If you read the article, it says that the Optima is out "next year", and then the Hybrid out "1st quarter of 2011". Aren't they really the same timeframe? This is contrary to what Kia has "officially" put on their website. Also the Sportage 2.0T date could be wrong as well...this article ... Read More

Re: Kia Sportage 2011 Turbo [conwelpic]
I think you are right, the weights of Sportage will compliment it hp due to it is lighter compare to those Chevy and Terrain. Thanks, i never noticed that... good catch. :) I will go for a test drive this weekend and will report back how it feel.

Re: Kia Sportage 2011 Turbo [radiowc]
No pics yet. But I've read an article on insideline.com that Sportage SX (turbocharged 2.0L with 270hp) will arrive in January 2011. I really like the look of the new Sportage over the Hyundai Tucson. But I prefer the license plate on the tailgate like the Tucson. There is too much open space on the tailgate of the new Sportage, plus a lack of third quarter windows.

Kia Sportage 2011 Turbo
Hi, Anyone came across how the new Kia Sportage 2011 Turbo pictures leak?? or also how different does it will be compare to the existing LX or EX like spec, options, etc. If not sure it is worth of waiting, unless we want the Turbo engine.

Re: Another 2011 Kia Sportage pic for you to enjoy... [iluvmysephia1]
Looking at this pic, it must be the European version that you have. Does the side signal indicator mirror power operated? Too bad, over here in US, you have to fold it yourself. I really like this Sportage...looks very awesome. I went to the Kia showroom near the place where i work, and it just arrived 4 hours ago. Even the salesman doesn't know much abt this car, and i have ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [vcarreras]
Diesel acceptance is related to fuel availability. Europe has better diesel fuel, and you need good fuel for long life. I looked at the VW Jetta Diesel, and almost bought it. Waiting for the Tiguan to get the Diesel now. The Kia Sportage is related to the Hyundai Tucson. I haven't heard that the Tucson is getting the 2.0 Turbo - I think that's exclusive to the Sonata at Hyundai. I'm ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [ecotrklvr]
Thank you for the information and this is good to know. I will be taking a good look at the turbo Sportage when it comes out in a few months plus will be reading the reports on the Sonota turbo since it's the same engine! Expect DFI and turbos will be the future since it does not look like the US will accept diesels!

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [vcarreras]
Don't be suckered. This is known as the "trash the other vehicle in order to get you to buy THIS vehicle" ploy. The other vehicle could be a competitor's, or anything else the the salesdouche can't make money on at the moment - like his own line's future vehicle that's months away. I would politely go to the sales manager there and request another salesperson. If he asks why, tell him ... Read More

2011 Kia Sportage
Visited the local Kia dealer and they had received their 1st 2011 Sportage. The salesman took me to see it where it was being serviced. I sat in it and must say it's very well finished. I asked about the turbo and was a bit taken by what the guy said, you will have turbo problems at around 60K! Is this true? Also, direct injection has been in Europe for years! ... Read More

Turbo in Sportage?
I've read several articles that mentioned that the 2011 Sportage, shortly after introduction, will be getting the 2.0 turbo. None state just how much hp/torgue this engine in the Sportage would have but it should be substantial as I believe it's a derivative of the turbo that will be going into the Sonata and Optima. Haven't read anywhere that the Tucson will be getting this turbo engine. 270+ hp with well ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [markleung]
according to Michael Sprague VP of Marketing for KIA US, the turbo will by available a "few months after launch", so I guess it depends how quick they can get the first vehicles to dealers and then you can judge from there.

MSN Canada first drives in Korea
The 'swamp buggy,' best known for its commercials of a Cajun man running it amuck though alligator territory while squealing "AYEEAAHH!" looks - and feels - nothing like its predecessor. In a first drive for overseas journalists, we ran the Sportage along smooth tarmac, rather than rough terrain. Following cues from Kia's 2007 Kue concept vehicle, the new Sportage now looks more at home fluttering around the city, rather than just ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [conwelpic]
Thanks for telling me about the mouseover function. I know where you are then. Well, let's hope it is coming out really soon and be sure to let us know as well. I honestly hope the 2.0T is out this year to match up with my lease return in October. My preference will be Sportage, then Optima/Magentis, then Sonata.

I was at my Canadian dealer today getting a normal service done on my Rondo and talked to the Sales Manager and he informed me that he has been notified that he should be getting the new 2011 Sportage sometime in June. He was surprised and hopes they are right as he has quite a few on order for stock and customer ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [conwelpic]
Thanks for the update. I guess August would qualify as late summer/early fall. There is actually some advantage for me that they come from Korea as the vehicles come off the boat here in the Pacific Northwest. Though KIA prices seem to be higher here than in other parts of the US. From what I see on Youtube, it looks like the new Sportage is already on sale in Korea as ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [steve_]
I follow what you are saying, but people are going to have to get out of this mentallity of thinking that a V6 is more powerful than a four. The Sportage's direct competition like the Tucson, CR-V, Rogue, Tiquan (it only offers a turbo) do not have V6's. If they feel they need it they can move up to a Sorento. You are now finding that vehicles in the past that ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [jayrob167]
I haven't read any firm confirmation from KIA, but my local dealer here in Canada is expecting it in August. The Sportage is currently built in South Korea and Slavakia - North America getting the production from Korea. I know from production figures that the the Sportage line in Korea is currently being changed as they only built 43 units in March, 1,245 for February and 7,761 in January (these are ... Read More
-
Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [conwelpic]
Yeah, but how many will check the specs? Turbos still have a bit of a reputation, undeserved or not, in the US. The typical buyer would probably prefer a small V6 over a 4 or a turbo - 4.

2011 Kia Sportage
I am very impressed by the exterior shots of the 2011 Kia Sportage, IMHO the exterior is much better looking than the new Hyundai Tucson. I think the 2.4L engine should be more than sufficient for a vehicle of this size and weight. I keep reading conflicting information in the early reviews about when the Sportage will be available in the US market. Some say mid-summer 2010, others say the fall ... Read More

Re: 2011 Kia Sportage [steve_]
And only a 4 cylinder initially available until the turbo arrives. Wonder what the crowd reaction to a 4 cylinder is going to be? Shouldn't be a problem if they check the specs. The '10 version with the 2.7 V6 produces 173 hp, the 2.0L I4 produces 140 hp. Curb weight 3230 - 3527 lbs. The '11 2.4L base I4 will produce 176 hp and the 2.0L I4 turbo estimated at ... Read More

2011 Kia Sportage
as there doesn't appear to be a thread for the new up coming redesigned model, I thought its time to start one. It was already announced in the Geneva Auto Show and then introduced to the New York Auto Show at the beginning of April. It should be in North American showrooms this fall.
