New Kia Sportage
The new Kia Sportage crossover range is now in UK showrooms and this stunning new car is likely to attract potential buyers away from the Nissan Qashqai, Peugeot 3008, Ford Kuga or Volkswagen Tiguan. The new range is available in three trim levels, 1, 2 and 3, plus all-wheel drive versions are now given the KX preface. The First Edition model that went on sale on August the 1st is now discontinued.

New Kia Sportage
The engine line-up includes four engines, with a new 1.6 GDi petrol and 1.7 CRDi turbodiesel launched in addition to the 2.0-litre petrol and diesel units. In all there are 16 different models of the new Kia Sportage available so there should be a car at the right budget and specification for most drivers. CO2 emissions range from 135g/km and combined mpg 54.4 and the EcoDynamics versions all feature the Stop & Go system.
The entry level Sportage in 1 trim grade is also highly specced, with 16-inch alloy wheels, air conditioning, all-round electric windows, a reach and rake adjustable steering column, LED daytime running lights, body-coloured electric door mirrors, remote central locking, a leather-covered steering wheel and gearlever knob, front fog lights, automatic rain-sensing windscreen wipers, Bluetooth connectivity with voice recognition, cruise control, steering wheel-mounted controls and an iPod conversion. Kia contract hire prices for all the new range should be on the site soon.
