2022 Kia Sportage Review

byAlex Nishimoto^{Correspondent
Alex Nishimoto has worked in the automotive industry since 2007. He was a staff writer for MotorTrend for 10 years and since then has contributed to CNET, PRI, AutoWise and other publications.}

Pros

Smooth ride
Spacious front and rear seating
Attractive dashboard layout with appealing features
Quiet interior at highway speeds

Cons

Lower fuel economy than some top rivals
Relatively modest cargo capacity
Slow acceleration
A next-gen Sportage is right around the corner

What's new

More features added to optional LX Value Edition package
Nightfall Edition replaces last year's S trim
Panoramic sunroof standard on EX trim
Part of the fourth Sportage generation introduced for 2017

The 2022 Kia Sportage is a small SUV that slots between the smaller Seltos and the three-row Sorento in the South Korean automaker's lineup. The 2022 model closes out the fourth generation of Sportage, which was first introduced in 2017. That makes this Sportage one of the older models in its class, but a wide range of features at an affordable price and a smooth ride help it still be a viable pick.

However, the Sportage does suffer from underwhelming fuel economy and utility. As such, you might also want to check out class all-stars such as the Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, Nissan Rogue and Subaru Forester. Waiting for the redesigned 2023 Sportage, which boasts many improvements and dramatic new styling, is worth considering too. Read our Expert Rating to find out more on how the 2022 Sportage measures up to the competition.

Edmunds Expert Rating

Our Verdict^{The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.}

7.2 /10

The Sportage is a pleasing city runabout. We like its easy-to-use controls and value for the dollar. But in terms of real performance, driving refinement and fuel economy, the Sportage falls below what we consider acceptable in the class. It has some advantages, but there are just as many reasons to look elsewhere.

Rated for you by America’s best test team.

Performance

6.5/10

How does the Sportage drive? The Sportage performs best around town, where its ample low-end torque, smooth braking and nicely weighted steering can shine. But when taken out of its comfort zone, the Kia largely disappoints. Our Sportage test vehicle had the optional turbocharged 2.0-liter engine. With it we managed a 0-60 mph sprint of 9 seconds, which is a poor showing for a small SUV with an upgraded engine. The brake pedal is a little soft, but it's easy to gauge the amount of pressure needed to bring the Sportage to an easy stop.

While the ride feels sporty, the suspension feels sloppy on twisty roads. Combined with numb steering and sometimes on-off power delivery, the Sportage reveals itself to be anything but sporty.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the Sportage? We like the supportive front seats that have plenty of adjustment and above-average heating and cooling capabilities. The climate control system quickly adjusts cabin temperatures too. The interior is well isolated from traffic noise and from road noise over bumps, but tire noise is noticeable at freeway speeds.

In keeping with the Sportage name, the ride is a bit firm and sporty. Around town, the suspension does a great job absorbing small bumps, but at higher speeds and over larger bumps, there's noticeable bounciness and rebound. It can be almost boat-like at times.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? The Sportage's interior feels high-quality for the class and has some nice features, but the sleek roofline creates compromises. Drivers and passengers more than 6 feet tall may note a lack of headroom. The low roof makes the interior feel smaller than it is, and the thick roof pillars create a number of blind spots. Yet even with the low roof, it's easy to get in or out of the SUV due to the wide door openings.

The seating position offers a good range of motion, especially with the generously telescoping steering wheel, but taller drivers will wish the seat could go lower. Buttons are clearly labeled, but each panel features buttons of identical shape and size so you will be relying on those labels rather than finding controls by touch.

Technology

8.0/10

How’s the tech? With few exceptions, the Sportage's tech features are top-notch. The logical and approachable touchscreen is user-friendly, and we appreciate the standard smartphone integration and charging options for front and rear passengers. The available upgraded stereo is among the best in the class. Navigation graphics are clean and crisp. But voice commands are disappointing — the system is easily confused, especially when you're trying to control navigation — and can't be accessed while using smartphone projection. A subscription to Kia's Uvo services, which our tester lacked, is said to improve voice recognition.

The Sportage's suite of driver aids works well, handling traffic without false positives or unsettling jerkiness. Only lane keeping assist has issues; it can misread lane marker lines and doesn't provide much steering assist to keep you within the lane.

Storage

7.0/10

How’s the storage? Cargo capacity is average for the class. There's 30.7 cubic feet of space behind the second row and 60.1 cubic feet with the seats folded. The low cargo floor makes it easy to load items, but the wheelwells intrude into the space. In the cabin, there's not much space for small items. We like the generous phone cubby, but the center console bin is on the small side, and the door bins are narrow.

Got small children? The reclining rear seatback and clearly marked car seat anchors make fitting a child seat easier, but installing a bulky rear-facing seat will require moving the front seats forward.

Fuel Economy

5.0/10

How’s the fuel economy? EPA estimates range from 26 mpg combined for the base front-wheel-drive Sportage down to 21 mpg combined for the turbocharged 2.0-liter model with all-wheel drive. Neither of those numbers is a strong showing in a class where competitors can claim up to 30 mpg.

On our real-world testing route, the Sportage returned 20.6 mpg, coming close to the EPA estimate. Still, considering the relatively slow acceleration from even the turbocharged model, these fuel economy numbers are disappointing.

Value

7.5/10

Is the Sportage a good value? Where the Sportage was once a standout, it's now caught up in the mix as automakers hone their value propositions. The Kia has a slight price advantage, especially if you place more priority on comfort and tech features than performance or practicality. But the real value proposition is Kia's warranty: The five-year/60,000-mile basic warranty and 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty are matched only by Hyundai.

Starting at around $24,000, the Sportage undercuts the base CR-V, but it's less practical and comes with a less desirable base engine. Our top-of-the-line test vehicle came in at a bit over $37,000, which just undercuts the highest-trim CX-5 that offers better performance with similar practicality. For the class, you're not quite getting everything you're paying for.

Wildcard

6.5/10

The Sportage lives and dies on its features, and it really only shines as a commuter. It's certainly an SUV that feels good to get into, with its well-built interior and comprehensive feature set, but push it outside of its comfort zone and the veneer cracks. In the end, it's hard to do anything but assign a split score here.

Which Sportage does Edmunds recommend?

Every Sportage model comes loaded with features, but we think the EX trim represents the best value of the bunch. Besides unique exterior styling touches such as 18-inch machine-finished alloy wheels and chrome accents, you also get useful extras including hands-free keyless entry with push-button start, a rear USB port, and a hands-free liftgate that opens automatically after you stand behind it for 3 seconds.

Kia Sportage models

3/5 stars, Problem from the start!!

Bjs, 01/29/2022

LX 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 6A)

The windshield washer was faulty the day I drove it off the lot. It sprayed the entire car, including the roof, front to rear, along with the side doors and windows. I was told it couldn't be fixed, even though it's under warranty. Then I was told the over spray was characteristic of the car, along with the fact that the sprayer "functioned as designed."

Two inarguable facts are unavoidable. *One. The Toyota Rav4 is the only smaller midsize SUV that has standard horsepower of 200 (203), making the purchase decision a no brainer. The problem is a vehicle weighing 4 to 5000 lbs is heavy. If you need actual 4WD to venture offroad and hike / camp, most AWD cars aren't really capable, especially if underpowered. *TWO.

Kia Sportage vs. the competition

2022 Kia Sportage

2021 Toyota RAV4

Kia Sportage vs. Toyota RAV4

The RAV4 has a few advantages over the Sportage, including a roomier cargo area and higher EPA-estimated fuel economy. You can also get it in the Adventure and TRD Off-Road trims that add some rugged character that the Sportage lacks. The Sportage, though, has longer basic and drivetrain warranties, and the turbocharged engine in the SX Turbo is considerably more powerful than the RAV4's 203-hp engine.

Compare Kia Sportage & Toyota RAV4 features

Kia Sportage vs. Honda CR-V

The Honda CR-V comes standard with a 190-horsepower turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, and it provides better fuel economy and quicker performance than the Sportage. The CR-V also has more cargo space. The Sportage has a slight advantage in standard features, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto included on the base model. Find out what we thought of the CR-V after one year of ownership here.

Compare Kia Sportage & Honda CR-V features

Kia Sportage vs. Subaru Forester

The Subaru Forester's base engine makes similar power (182 hp and 176 lb-ft of torque) to the Sportage's standard engine, but it gets significantly better fuel economy. Cargo room is about equal with the rear seats in place but shifts in the Forester's favor once those seats are folded. The Forester is also the better pick if you want to do some light off-roading.

Should I lease or buy a 2022 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.
