2006 Kia Sportage consumer reviews

I bought this truck back in 2020 used for $3500.00. I had to do some work to it but only because the previous owner didn't do much work to it. Maintenance that is. I can say with only doing regular maintenance I am very happy with the reliability of this truck I can always count on it. I wish it was a little bigger but I fit in it just fine. I love the stereo factory speakers sound amazing to me. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone who wants a truck but not a huge truck and to drive in comfort. It has great pick up and can fly pretty fast down the rode. Reliability is Awesome...

great little car torquey have driven through deep snow and grass at the same time never slips. 2/3 inches of snow on road never slipped or lost traction. now looking for another

Good deal for 100,000 mileage compared to 200,000 Honda CRV …….for same money. No rust at all. I believe it has quality of Toyota or Honda.

Great vehicle. very good for year round travel. Great on gas for an SUV. I would definitely buy another one when it comes time to get another vehicle.

Good gas mileage. Rides great. I also like the space it has for large purchases. I will know just how much I love it when winter comes?

It is a great suv. It goes great in the snow and has lots of room for our family. My husband has a lot of legroom for a long trip.

I've long owned a small SUV (Subaru/Ford). A friend told me KIA was underrated. I bought a used one recently & it is really great.

Bought this car new in 2006 and put 173,000 miles on it split between highway and city driving. We kept to the scheduled maintenance and had items repaired when they needed attention and never had any problems that left us stranded. The only issues I had were the fact that it's a little underpowered but it's only noticeable when, say getting up to highway speed on a short ramp or trying to pass on a two lane road. That and the fact that Kia uses a timing belt instead of a chain for this model and getting that belt replaced is a little expensive since quite a few items have to be removed to gain access to it. You do not want that belt to break so it gets replaced ahead of schedule. I liked the car so much we traded it in on a new Sportage just last week. We used synthetic oil since it was new and the gas milage never dropped. It was a good car.

Good ride...always a good ride..good on gas and low maintenance. Very dependable and realiable. Must try to get a 2017 model.

It's a reliable vehicle. Low millage, clean interior and asking price was unreal. I wish I had the opportunity to have it. I loved the car when I test drove it. Run smoothly and sound good.
