in Ashburn, VA2020 Kia Sportage Review
If you're in the market for a small crossover, you're probably aware of heavy hitters such as the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Ford Escape. Wander off the beaten path, however, and you'll find alternatives that offer strong selling points. The 2020 Kia Sportage is one of these lesser-known rivals, and we think it makes a good name for itself, with a low price and a feature-rich lineup.
The Sportage costs less than many of its competitors but offers more features, including standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality, plus desirable driver aids such as lane departure and forward collision warning systems. Unlike rivals, which offer skimpy starter versions, you can equip the Kia's base LX model with an option package that makes it well-equipped for such a reasonably priced crossover. Up the trim ladder, you'll find features that are rare for the class, not to mention a sporty variant with a strong turbocharged engine.
Its most significant drawback is its relatively compact cargo area. The Sportage is smaller than most in the class, but its passenger seating is just as roomy as you'll find in competitors. That means the space savings has to come from behind the second row, where the Sportage supplies about one-third less cargo space than its most spacious rivals. We also aren't impressed by the Sportage's middling fuel economy ratings. However, its lower purchase price helps even things out, and you won't be turned off by the cargo area unless you typically load your car to the brim with gear.
Which Sportage does Edmunds recommend?
Kia Sportage models
The 2020 Kia Sportage is a five-passenger compact-crossover SUV available in LX, S, EX and SX Turbo trim levels. The LX has a decent number of standard features, while the S adds a few more and offers the most choices for optional packages. The EX contains features of both of the above trims and their respective packages. The sporty SX Turbo comes with nearly all of the Sportage's features as standard.
Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is an option on all versions. The LX, S and EX have a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine (181 horsepower, 175 lb-ft of torque), while the SX Turbo has a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder (240 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque). Adding all-wheel drive drops output slightly to 237 hp. A six-speed automatic transmission is standard, regardless of powertrain choice.
Standard equipment on the LX includes 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, LED daytime running lights, rear privacy glass, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a driver information display, selectable driving modes, a height-adjustable driver's seat, a 60/40-split folding and reclining back seat, Bluetooth, an 8-inch touchscreen display, the Kia Uvo infotainment system, and a six-speaker sound system with a USB port and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality. Standard safety features include a rearview camera, a driver attention monitor, automatic high-beam control, lane departure warning and mitigation, and forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection.
We suggest getting the LX with the Popular package. It adds foglights, UV-reducing glass for the front windows and windshield, a windshield wiper de-icer, power-folding and heated side mirrors, dual-zone automatic climate control, vanity mirror lights, a power-adjustable driver's seat, upgraded seat fabric, and a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert.
The S builds off the LX, adding 18-inch wheels, foglights, roof rails, heated and power-folding mirrors, exterior and interior styling enhancements, a flat-bottom steering wheel with wheel-mounted paddle shifters, Sofino simulated-leather upholstery, and the blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert.
Two packages are available for the S. The Sunroof package equips the Sportage with a panoramic sunroof, the UV-reducing glass, the windshield wiper de-icer, and ambient interior lighting. The S Premium package includes the Sunroof package, plus unique wheels, LED foglights and taillights, a leather-wrapped shifter, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, black interior trim, keyless entry and ignition, dual-zone automatic climate control, a power driver's seat, heated front seats, satellite radio, voice recognition, a wireless charging pad, a rear USB port, adaptive cruise control, and an electronic parking brake with auto hold.
The EX essentially mixes and matches features from the above trims and packages. It builds off the LX with Popular package, adding 18-inch wheels, roof rails, a hands-free tailgate, keyless entry and ignition, black interior trim, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, the Sofino faux leather upholstery, and a rear USB port.
The EX's Technology package is expensive but packed with goodies. These include front and rear parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, an electronic parking brake with auto hold, a panoramic sunroof, a spare tire, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, ambient lighting, a power-adjustable passenger seat, ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, leather upholstery, a wireless phone charger, a navigation system, and an eight-speaker Harman Kardon sound system with satellite radio and voice recognition.
Topping the Sportage range is the SX Turbo. It comes with everything above, plus the more powerful engine, 19-inch wheels, a sport-tuned suspension, larger front brakes, LED headlights, dual exhaust tips,and upgraded instrumentation.

This car is fantastic! I’m 6’0” and 220 and I couldn’t be more comfortable. I read a review where someone said it didn’t have much headroom for a 6ft guy. I don’t know what car he was driving because tons were f room over my head in the front or back seat. My model does not have the power seats and there’s not a lot of adjustability but they are super comfy as is. We came from an 2014 Subaru Forester and this car out performs it in almost all categories. We were concerned about the cargo space because it was a little smaller but we can still fit all the same camping gear in it that we did in our forester. With 1/3 of the back seat down we can fit 2 large plastic totes, 2 small totes a 55qt cooler 3 duffel bags 3 bike helmets and 3 camelbaks. It’s tight but it was raining n the forester too. Gas mileage has been about 25 in town and 30 or better highway. All the controls are very intuitive. The Bluetooth hooks up every time. Apple car play is super sweet! We haven’t had the car long but my family agrees it’s the best car we’ve had.
Traded my 2018 kia Sorrento in for a 2020 sportage. I thought i downsized and would be disappointed. I loved my Sorrento. I'm very happy with the shortage. Drives smooth. Plenty of room. Stylish look.
I just returned from a 1,200 mile trip in my 2020 Kia Sportage S with premium package. Nothing like a long trip tp get to know your vehicle! I can say I'm very pleased with the vehicle. It rides smooth, it's comfortable, and rides quiet. Using Google maps on Android Auto was great. My Garmin never came out of the console compartment. The driver assist technologies worked good as well. It took awhile to get used to the adaptive cruise control and to get It adjusted to a reasonable following distance. I had a Kia Sorento prior to the Sportage and was a little concerned about downsizing but the trip eliminated any concerns I had.
Both my husband and I are tall. The passenger as well as the driver are comfortable. Drives like a dream. The servive from the dealership is out stsnding.

Kia Sportage vs. the competition
Kia Sportage vs. Kia Sorento
If you like the Sportage but need a little more room for the family, the Kia Sorento is the logical choice. As a midsize three-row SUV, it's one class size larger than the Sportage. You pay a higher price for the extra space and a more luxurious cabin. We also don't recommend the Sorento in its base L and LX trims, which have the Sportage's same 2.4-liter engine and can make the larger vehicle debilitatingly slow.
Kia Sportage vs. Hyundai Tucson
The Kia Sportage and the Hyundai Tucson are corporate cousins and, as such, are quite similar underneath. Exterior and interior styling are major differentiators, as are the engine choices. The Tucson offers 2.0-liter and 2.4-liter engines, while the Sportage is powered by 2.4-liter and turbocharged 2.0-liter engines.
Kia Sportage vs. Honda CR-V
The Sportage faces stiff competition in the form of the Honda CR-V. The Honda offers the same adult-friendly cabin, but its cargo area is significantly larger. The CR-V's turbocharged 1.5-liter engine makes it feel reasonably quick, but it's no match for the Sportage's upgraded motor. Overall, we think the Honda is the better choice, but we also can't argue with the Kia's stronger list of available features.

2020 Kia Sportage News, Release Date and Pricing
New Features for a Refreshed, Budget-Friendly Small Crossover
by Cameron Rogers , Reviews Editor • February 7th, 2020Despite its funky name — which sounds like a word Bill and/or Ted would use to describe an ancient soccer game — the Kia Sportage is actually a fairly conventional compact crossover. It's less expensive than many of its rivals, yet it offers a ton of optional features and even a powerful turbocharged engine for spirited drivers. The fourth-generation Sportage hasn't changed much since its debut in 2017, but a few revisions for next year's model make it more value-rich than ever. The 2020 Kia Sportage will launch later this year with new safety systems, a restyled exterior and a greater emphasis on tech features.
Adding Value in a Budget-Friendly Segment
A handful of upgrades makes the 2020 Sportage look sharper than its predecessor. The front bumper has been redesigned with a new chrome strip that runs between the imitation air inlets to break up the lower half of the front end. A silver-painted lower section that looks like a skid plate gives the Sportage an off-road-ready appearance. Newly available LED headlights and a restyled rear end round out the rest of the Sportage's exterior enhancements.
Inside, every new Sportage will come standard with the current model's optional 8-inch touchscreen, complete with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality. All models — including the new S trim, which sits between the LX and the EX — come with a new steering wheel, while upper trims add faux-leather seating surfaces and a wireless charging pad.
Nothing changes power-wise with the two engines offered: a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine (181 horsepower, 175 pound-feet of torque) and a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder (240 hp and 260 lb-ft). While the Sportage already offers a number of driver aids, even more will be available on the refreshed model. Adaptive cruise control (ACC) is new for 2020, and it can slow the Sportage to a full stop. (Some competing ACC systems disengage at low speeds.) The lane departure warning feature now helps steer the Sportage back into the lane if it begins to cross the lane marker. The forward collision warning system now detects pedestrians, while the new Driver Attention Warning feature can raise an alert when it detects that the driver is distracted.
Pricing and Release Date
The 2020 Kia Sportage will go on sale in LX, S, EX and SX trims in the second quarter of this year; look for it at your local Kia dealership in spring or early summer. Prices have not been announced yet, but the newly standard touchscreen system might bump the 2020 Sportage's starting price slightly higher than the 2020 model's base price of $24,795 (including destination).

Should I lease or buy a 2020 Kia Sportage?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
