Kia Sportage (2010 - 2016) 2.0 CRDi KX-4 5d Owner Review

2.0 CRDi KX-4 5d
Kia 2010 Sportage

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

Really reliable, incredible kit levels on the higher spec, still looks nice even now. Still has manufacturer warranty! I usually get itchy feet quickly with cars, but having had this nearly 3 years I look at newer cars and honestly don't know what they would offer over and above this car with this spec. Apart from slightly better mpg The 2.0CRDI 182 engine is thirsty by modern car standards, but not cripplingly so. Does everything a family of 4 needs.

How reliable do you find the car?

Hasn't skipped a beat. No mechanical issues at all. Literally the only thing has been a repair to the electric seat mechanism under warranty

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

We got the KX-4 which is the top spec and it has so much equipment. Heated steering wheel, heated seats front and back, front sensors, sat Nav, Infinity sound system, leather, panoramic roof etc. Only downsides are that it is thirsty (the 182hp diesel does go pretty well though), and would have been better with a DAB radio given the brilliant speaker setup.
