I'll begin by stating that I waited until this 2023 Kia Sportage SX Prestige had ample miles on the odometer in order to give a more factual review. At 9,124 of mixed driving ( 60% highway, 40% city), this vehicle has been solid in every way. My overall mileage since purchase sits at 36.1. I easily manage a consistent 38 -40 in city driving. On a long 4500 mile road trip driving at speeds between 65 and 80, the mpg sat at 33.9. The Sportage is quiet, very comfortable and handles well. There is an excellent amount of storage in the rear.I have the Harman Kardon stereo system that sounds better and better now that the new speakers have loosened up a bit. The safety gear works well and the navigation is a snap to use. Mine is the matte gray finish. It looks great but can't be run through a car wash. Touchless only, with as little sudsy stuff as possible. And that is possible only because I had a ceramic coating applied. Now, the only real fault with this vehicle is the ridiculously touchy HVAC/entertainment controls. Don't look cross-eyed at them. They have an attitude all their own. This vehicle has a slew of useful safety features and if you pay too much attention to adjusting the temperature in your car, you may well need them. That being said, I try to adjust everything before starting out. Now!! This is hands down the best performing vehicle I have owned. It's quick, quiet, and comfortable and at least to this point, entirely trouble free.

We love our new Sportage Hybrid Prestige. The hybrid engine provides a really quiet and powerful ride for a crossover. We bought this SUV because it has more room than the competitors, great MPG, and the driving technology is amazing, especially the lane keeping assist on highways. The interior is very luxurious for the price point. So far we’ve had no issues. I wish they would not have left out the power folding mirrors and the wireless CarPlay. What is the purpose of wireless charging if you still have to use a cable to connect to the screen?

I have had this Sportage SX Prestige Hybrid for 3 months. My last car was a 2019 Totota Rav 4 Hybrid. The Kia rides much better, has more technology, is quieter, and quicker, especially in sport mode. The interior is more spacious and attractive that the Rav. On the down side, the raw averaged 38 mpg overall and at times was closer to 45 mpg. The Sportage get about 3 mpg less. But, for me, that is a fair trade off for the overall comfort the Sportage provides.

Like: 1. The ride is very smooth 2. I love 12.3-inch digital instrument panels and display quality is amazing 3. The car is loaded with all safety bells 4. The blind-spot monitoring is awesome - never had before 4. A lot of customizations for the existing safety and other features are provided - just need to learn how to do it 5. 227 horsepower is more than enough for me 6. City MPG is good Cons: 1. On the display, the visibility of the controls that are placed on the right upper side is not good (talking about 'EV active' indicator) due to smaller size of wheel and trying to adjust seat and wheel positions is not helping much 2. Switching controls to operate between AC and other features like radio is very user unfriendly due to placing touch controls very close to each other and selecting those controls during driving is very hard and potentially dangerous due to taking eyes out of road and looking down trying to press the right control. - Configuring control to be active by default can help a little but still switching between is hard 3. Freeway MPG is not that good. Still learning a lot about this car

I had a new 2022 Tucson hybrid now I bought the 2023 Kia Sportage. I like the features and the ride better in the Kia Sportage I like the style a little better on the Hyundai. The interior is much better in the Kia Sportage. I think the style of the Sportage is more conservative than the Tucson. Kia built on the Tucson platform and I feel they did a better job with tuning on the suspension. On the Hyundai I purchased the SEL convenience package, on the Sportage I purchased the e x with the premium package that would be equivalent to the SEL convenience . package. The Sportage package has some nicer features than the Hyundai the larger screen 12.25 and heated steering wheel. It just seems to be put together a little better. It also gets better gas mileage than the Tucson.I have had it for about 2 weeks now. What a pleasure to drive, I just went to North Seattle during rush hour and back and got 40.8 mpg. I also am starting to like the style better also. Three different review sites agreed..
