7 Exciting Features of the 2021 Kia Sportage

There are many things to like about the 2021 Kia Sportage. You can find an excellent exterior design, as well as a well-built, comfortable interior, with exhilarating amenities. Here are 7 of its exciting features that we can’t wait for you to explore!

1. Solid Engine

A naturally aspirated 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine producing 181 horsepower and 175 pound-feet of torque come standard with the Sportage LX, EX, and S trims. An automatic six-speed transmission delivers that power to the wheels in all trims. The SX Turbo trim boasts a turbocharged 240-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. Front-wheel drive is standard, but an all-wheel-drive option is available for the SX trim.

2. Superior Performance

This Sportage is a quiet, comfortable, and maneuverable commuter. It delivers a great driving and handling experience with responsive steering, a suspension that is excellent through corners, and a transmission that stays out of the way. To handle different terrains better, a trio of drive-modes are available: Sport, Eco, and Normal. All modes can be activated with the push of a button.

3. Stylish Interior

The interior styling is functional and straightforward, with a well-executed cabin that’s filled with a pleasing mix of quality materials. The seating position is upright for an exceptional view of the road while the center stark tilts slightly to provide a sense of ergonomic care to the driver. The SX Turbo trim comes with leather-trimmed seats and heated front seats.

4. Comfortable Passenger Space

The 2021 Kia Sportage seats up to five people in two rows. Both rows are spacious enough for adult passengers and offer comfortable and supportive seats. The EX and SX Turbo have 10-way power-adjustable seats with two-way lumbar support, while the LX and S models come with a six-way manually adjustable driver’s seat. Without the sunroof, there are 39.3-inches of headroom in the front and 39.1-inches in the rear. The legroom is 41.5-inches in the front and 38.2-inches at the back.

5. Adequate Cargo Space

The new Sportage offers 30.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats. For additional room, its 60/40 split-folding rear seats fold down to create an impressive 60.1 cubic feet. It also provides a dual-height cargo floor whose raised position allows for a flat surface when the back seats fold down.

6. Top-Notch Infotainment

An 8-inch touchscreen angled towards the driver makes it easy to use the UVO infotainment system. The screen has crisp graphics and offers quick response rates. Most functions have physical controls that are easy to use. The system also features Standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. Optional features include:

• Voice recognition
• Satellite radio
• An eight-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system
