kia sportage 2023 reviews

The 2023 Kia Sportage wins points for a classy cabin, generous space, and safety tech that behaves like an over-caffeinated co-pilot (mostly helpful, occasionally naggy). Engines include a 2.0L petrol (FWD), 1.6L turbo‑petrol (AWD), and a torquey 2.0L diesel (AWD); ANCAP rates it 5 stars (2022).

New pricing typically lands around AUD $35k–$55k before on-roads by trim, while 2023 used examples sit roughly $30k–$50k depending on kms and spec, with plenty on Tradingpost and dealer lots. Reviewers like the ride and tech, but note the base 2.0 can feel breathless, and the 1.6T’s DCT can be clumsy in traffic; the diesel is the long-legged tourer’s friend. Kia’s 7‑year/unlimited km warranty sweetens the deal. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
